The sea opens like a dare as the pirate ship slides from Alanya Harbor, flag snapping and laughter drifting over the bow. Deck planks creak underfoot; the Taurus Mountains stand dark to starboard while the town’s red roofs shrink behind you. Salt and citrus carry on the breeze as the captain steers toward Cleopatra Beach and a ring of coastal caves.
