Gocek in July - any tranquility or all revelry?

[Assynt21]

Hi ,

I’m a new member and posted in the family/kids section for advice about a first trip with kids.

Gocek is currently our preference - it sounds too hectic and touristy on the one hand, but with milder winds and myriad coves a short distance from the marina on the other, so we can keep it very simple depending on how the kids take to it.

Any advice from folk who know it well? We would be there first week of July. It sounds like you are not allowed to anchor overnight in many places but that there are buoys in a lot of the coves is that right? I’m not sure I yet understand the local laws and guidance on this. Fethiye is that bit further from the coves so less suited to our beginner needs is that right?

Thanks!
