After a successful first summer in Greece, easyCruise has announced that a second ship named easyCruise Life will join the easyCruise fleet on a new 7 day cruise to the Greek Islands and Turkey.

From April 2008, easyCruise Life will be cruising to 6 different Greek Islands, from laid back Syros and Samos to lively Kalymnos, Kos, Paros and Mykonos for a 24 hour stay. easyCruise will visit Turkey for the first time with a full day and night in Bodrum. Customers can choose where to join the cruise – in Athens on Saturday or in Bodrum on Monday.

EasyCruise chairman Stelios Haji-Ioannou commented: “The popularity of our 2007 season has proved that people are very keen to visit Greece and the surrounding islands and easyCruise Life will certainly cater for this demand.”

Maybe more reason for them to fly to Bodrum now as they can join the cruise ship on Monday's

I have booked this mini-cruise for 2008 but, I would like any members advice on access to port and car parking as I will be travelling from the Fethiye area.
Long time since I was last in Bodrum you see.
cheers

That link's not working for me Spitfire

I didn't realise cruise ships could come into Bodrum. I thought the water's were only deep enough in Kusdasi and Marmaris (as well as Izmir and Istanbul of course).

Yes definitely a reason for easyjet to fly to Bodrum. You'd think they would HAVE to fly there if you wanted to go on their cruise.

Hi Terry. We also have booked it. I think it is May 8th when we go. Looking forward to it.Don't know about the port and parking as I have never been to Bodrum. No doubt somebody on here will enlighten us.

Hi RIK,
Was in Antalya again at the beginning of the month, wife's birthday.
Anyway chum, I wonder if there is many permanent Bodrum members as they have been keeping very quiet...LOL
Would be nice to get some info before driving next year for the cruise. Are you driving, flying or coaching down I wonder?
Kind regards
Terry

Hi Terry. We are driving but we are going with two friends and staying overnight in Bodrum.Then we shall do the same when we get back.Cruise should be excellent but not sure about the cabins. For the price we paid we will not be complaining. What date are you going ?
