Yachting and Cruising the crystal-clear waters of Turkiye

The azure waters of The Mediterranean, the Aegean, and Black Sea, as well as the Sea of Marmara, surround Turkey to the north, west and south. With a coastline exceeding 8,333 kilometres and bordered by four seas, Turkey is a treasure trove of bays, inlets, coves, and beaches, offering Yachtsmen the chance to select a unique and private anchorage each night. The sailing haven of Turkey is the setting for the Blue Cruise.

This picturesque voyage entails sailing with the winds, into secluded coves and across the seas, and aligning oneself with nature. It also presents an exploration of human history from a maritime viewpoint rather than a terrestrial one, a voyage that takes you to Cleopatra’s private beach, the everlasting flames of Mt. Olympos, and the numerous archaeological remnants of ancient cultures. For those who appreciate an active lifestyle, sailing in pristine waters offers excellent
opportunities for surfing, swimming, fishing, skiing and diving.

My party is more than 12 person, can we visit Greek Islands?

If a gulet has 9 cabins that means she can accomodate 18 person. The gulet can cruise with 18 person onboard in Turkish waters but can only leave Turkish waters with max. 12 person to foreign waters (same vice verse). But if you plan to cruise in Greek waters only and not plan to visit the Turkish coast, than your group can be 18 person. Again you can only be max. 12 person onboard to enter Turkey with a gulet (the rest can take the ferryboat!).

Most Popular Marinas in Turkey to Visit During Your Gulet Voyage

Yachting continues to be a favored pastime for both locals and tourists in Turkey. In the last four decades, the industry has expanded significantly, and now numerous marinas line the coast between Istanbul and Antalya. The most well-known marinas in Turkey are located on the southern Mediterranean and Aegean shores at Kusadasi, Bodrum, Marmaris, Gocek, Fethiye, Kemer and Antalya. In these fully equipped marinas, boaters can locate the supplies and services they need. Izmir, Bodrum, Dalaman and Antalya airports offer fast connections to all of Turkey’s marinas; after a smooth flight, you can step onto your yacht and set sail within the same day.

Why charter a Gulet?

Gulet Charter is more economical, relaxing, hassle free and enjoyable than a hotel holiday. You do not much chance to spend much money when you are onboard, better chance to seeand visit the region, making the most of the sun and sea, a great chance to make new friends (cabin charter), relax with your loved ones around.
