Lorraine the beach in Bodrum is kept very quiet because there isn't one

There is a very short patch of "kind of sand" but there isn't an actual beach in Bodrum. Bodrum has quite a big harbour which is really busy with ferries and boat and lots of market stalls around but the locals call Gumbet, Bodrum's beach. The beach in Gumbet is nice but far too busy for me these days.
