THE BEACH | MAGAZINE “ Swim in the Blue Cave and then come ashore at Butterfly Valley. If you are feeling energetic, climb up to the waterfall and you might glimpse a rare Tiger Moth. PRIVATE GULLET HIRE… by the week Decide on a two-centre holiday. Why not spend one week at sea and one on land. The larger gullets have a minimum of 8 double cabins. They have en-suite bathrooms with constant hot water and A/C. The crew are used to cooking for visitors. They can whip up a meal to your specifications. Prior to leaving port you may accompany the chef to the market to buy in your stores. Private gullet departures have flexible dates. SPEED BOATS These are hired out by the hour….fuel is expensive and you would not wish to run out in the middle of the sea! Therefore rather than aiming for Rhodes steer towards one of the local isolated coves with your snorkeling gear and a picnic. WATER SPORTS Water-skiing, ringo and banana are popular and can be found off the local beaches. Jet-ski is not licensed in the area, however there are some people who offer this possibility. 47
