Taken from Fethiye Times this week, break of down costs of trip to Meis, bus fare 12Ytl each way, boat fare 40Ytl, visa 15euro (approx 28Ytl) Total 92Ytl x 4 = 368Ytl/year.
Cost of residency approx 500Ytl/year.
A saving of 132Ytl/year or 33Ytl per trip. Then add 4 days of your life.
Thats not including anything else you spend that you would not spend had you not done the trip, ie duty free.(unless it's Jack Daniels you don't save that much)
Plus you have no choice, you have to leave the country come wind, rain, high winds or rough seas.
It's residency for me, cheaper in the long run.
