What this video covers
The crew of the vessel *reality* secures a mooring buoy in the bay at Kas, Turkey, to shelter from forecasted 40-knot winds. The anchorage, located near the Kas Marina, provides protection behind a headland that mimics a group of islands. The area serves as a hub for local dive boats, which frequent a nearby site featuring deliberately sunk shipwrecks, an aircraft, and a tank. During the stay, the crew monitors VHF warnings regarding migrant activity in the region. After securing the boat with three lines to the buoy, the crew explores the town of Kas, including its ancient water systems, rock-cut tombs, and surrounding agricultural valleys filled with polytunnel greenhouses. The crew plans to depart for Finike before eventually plotting a 16-hour passage to Rhodes.
