Calis water taxi - fare reduced to 6TL (5TL on Sunday - Calis market day) Seems to me they are struggling too - shame, great service.

Yes it is a great shame Kevin. We love the trip across the bay on the taxi, great value for money too  :(

They're no different to bars and restaurants - if the tourist numbers are down, there'll be less folks using their service.

Edit: At least they arent practising Turkonomics - when there's less customers, they bump the price up!

Boat trips down now from 60tl to 50tl. ( min 10 people)
I confess to being one of many people who explained the error of putting it up so much this year, with a further increase from 1st July.
I explained that expats are a valuable source of income and bring many visitors.
And with so few tourists they need our business.
If the price is high instead of 2 or 3 trips a month we might only do 1 or 2 because of limited budget.
I also reminded how last year it went up because they said we were getting more lira with the exchange rate, but we live here on a budget with money in tl accounts.
And how small boats from Fethiye side were 20tl cheaper and more people using them.
Various people I spoke to said they had explained the same and we're pleased to say we were informed of the price drop today.
So get out there everyone and give your support.
