Anyone seen a water hammock
« on: August 12, 2010, 05:50:20 PM »
Great idea water hammocks better than a lilo as water comes through the mesh to keep you cool.

In June someone said they had seen them in Yali but couldnt find when went to look.

Has anyone seen them for sale in Kalkan and if so how much.

Thanks in advance

Speaking from memory, and I haven't been in Kalkan for about 8 weeks but, I don't remember any pools with sunken trees to attach a hammock to. ???   I think the chlorine might be detrimental to the wood and the falling leaves clog up the pumps.

There - over there, there are.            To - Going to
Their - belongs to them.                     Too - In addition, Also
They're - Short for they are.

Pedant! me?

I have one which has seen better days and have been looking to replace it for some time now - haven't been able to find one in Kalkan or Kas but have been told they have them for sale Göcek.
You may be better ordering from an internet site- http://www.shopwiki.co.uk/Kelsyus+Water+Hammock

They're very light and come in a foldaway flat pack so very easy to slip in with your luggage.
Evidently the ones for sale in Gocek come in lots of bright colours and patterns, don't know how much they are, hoping to go next week and check them out but it's too bliddy hot to contemplate going anywhere at the moment!

I have also have one and can thoroughly reccomend them, we bought ours a few years ago in Kalkan, but have not seem them since. I would be interested in knowing how much they are in Gocek, as I might also need a replacement so a quick detour on the way from Dalaman could be on the cards

Omigod, they look amazing!!! Why haven't I seen them before? Im seriously considering buying one and bringing it with me :)
I'm assuming those who are looking to replace theirs are doing so for aesthetic reasons as opposed to anything else?
Has anyone seen them in Fethiye? Someone in Kalkan would clean up if they stocked them..!
Better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than to open it and remove all doubt :)

 ;D    Thanks very much for the post - they look superb and I ordered one from Amazon this morning, just over £36 inc delivery in the U.K. Was a bit worried about how we would get it over to Kalkan, delighted to hear that they fold flat!

From Kalkan go back towards the airport. You go past the turning for Fethiye and further on but before you get to the tunnel you turn left at the signs for Gocek. There is a garage on the left at the turning into the town. It's a lovely place and we usually stop there for a meal on our way back to the airport.

I know you think that you know what I said but how do you know that what I said was what I mean...............

No No No .................... The garage is the place we turn. Any one of a great choice of restaurants is where we eat. There are some lovely shops too so if you have an afternoon or evening flight schedule in a few hours at Gocek.
