Air Conditioned Boats
Attention: Air-Condition is run
average 8 hours per day at times designated by boat staff.
The boarding starts at 16:30 from Marmaris Harbor. On the
first day, the service starts on the boat with overnight stay in Marmaris Port. Marmaris, which was built upon
one of the antique Karian cities called Phyckos, has been under
the rule of many different civilizations. The most valuable
work of art that you can see today is
Marmaris Castle dating
from 1577. There is also a mosque and an 8-room caravansary
covered with arches from the Ottoman Period. The ruins of the
Antique times lie on Asar Hill; a small, low hill located on
the northern side of the city. Being one of the best-known
touristic places of Turkey, Marmaris has also a large marina.
Attention: Dinner on Day 1, Day 4 and Day 7 is not
included.
After your breakfast, you will be informed about the cruise
itinerary and the boat. The cruise will move towards Ekincik
Gulf. You may join our optional Dalyan Tour from here. You will
be taken from your yacht by a small boat called “piyade”. You
will arrive at Caretta-Caretta (turtle) Beach and take a
swimming break here. You will enjoy the natural beauty of the
delta as you cruise along the river. You will see the ancient
Rock Tombs and finally arrive at mud baths to relax and be
rejuvenated. A fishing village called Dalyan will be our final
destination after we return to our yacht by piyade boat. Overnight stay will be in the
beatiful Gulf of Ekincik.
Dalyan: Dalyan achieved international fame in 1986 when
developers wanted to build a luxury hotel on the nearby Iztuzu
Beach , a breeding ground for the endangered loggerhead sea
turtle species. The development project was stopped and the
beach is now a protected area. Iztuzu is also a popular area
for sunbathing and swimming. Above the river's sheer
cliffs are the weathered facades of Lycian tombs cut from rock,
circa 400 AC. The ruins of the ancient trading city of Kaunos
are a short boat trip across the river.
Because of the wavy seas of Disibilmez and Kurtoglu capes that
we have to cross, we will cruise earlier than the other days
and reach the world-famous Gocek Gulf. We will anchor at
Tersane Island for breakfast and swimming break. We will cruise
to Manastir (Monastery) Bay. This place is also known as
Cleopatra Bay or Sunken Bath Bay due to the beautiful
underwater ruins of an old bath. Overnight stay at the
peacefull
Kizil Island.
Tersane Island is the largest island in
Fethiye Gulf. Entrance
of the harbor-like bay of the island is via a deep narrow
channel. The Eastern side of the bay is very suitable for
anchor because it is quite shallow and protected from the wind.
According to ancient sources, the island was inhabited and
named Telandria in the past and was also used as a dockyard for
the ships during the Ottoman period.
Manastir Bay: The people also call this beautiful bay
Cleopatra's Bath because of the ruined Roman bath lying in the
water southeast of the bay. The volcanic structure of the natural hillside of
the bay also confirms the existence of a crater lake, which
gave warm waters to the bath house in ancient times. The pine
trees in the bay cover the slopes from the seaside to the top
of the hill, where you also see carob trees as well. A long
ancient wall stretches west of the bay, seemingly the defense
wall of the Lycian city Lydae that is located behind the hill.
South of the bay, where the remains of the bath are, is an
ideal anchorage spot closed to wind.
Arrive at
Fethiye Harbor early in the morning. Fethiye, which
was known as Telmessos in the ancient times, was the most
important city situated on Lycia's western border with Caria.
As the name suggests, the city was the city of light and was
famous for its prophets. We also offer the option of a jeep
safari tour in Fethiye. For those who will not join the Safari,
the boat will cruise to Samanlik Bay for lunch and swimming.
Afterwards around 16:00 the boat will anchor at Ece Saray
Marina for overnight stay.
Note: The participants who joined for 'Marmaris
> Fethiye Mini Cruise' version should check out by 16:00.
Attention: Dinner on Day 1, Day 4 and Day 7 is not
included.
Fethiye is one of the most popular resorts of Turkey located on
a wide bay, strewn with many islands. Fethiye is 135 kms
southwest of
Marmaris and has an outstanding and busy marina.
The ancient name of the city is Telmessos and you will see a
fortress on the hill overlooking the city which was built by
Knights of Rhodes Island. Fethiye is also known for its rock
tombs carved into the faces of the high cliffs by the Lycians.
Among these tombs especially remarkable one is the tomb of
Amnytas dating from the 4th century BC, elaborately carved in
Doric architectural style. It is worth well visiting. Other
historical places around the town are the Sarcopaghi and the
Fethiye Tower.
Attention: Fethiye > Marmaris Mini Cruise guests
must embark the boat before 08:30 a.m. from Fethiye..
After breakfast, we will cruise to world-famous Gocek Gulf.
While moving through uniquely beautiful islands, we finally
anchor at Yassica Islands. Lunch will be taken in this
beautiful chain of little islands. Snorkeling in the crystal
clear water is recommended. Overnight in a bay
amongst the gulf of Gocek.
Gocek is located 22 km from Dalaman International Airport and
35 km from
Fethiye. Positioned at the furthest north end of
Fethiye bay. Göcek hosts four significant marinas that serve
the yacht tourism in the region. A prominent characteristic of
the town is the fact that it harbors islands and coves located
in a large and secluded bay. Due to its location, it naturally
enjoys a high potential for yacht tourism. Göcek was relatively
small village until 1990's and is known as Turkey's greatest
chromium reserve. The recent development of several yacht
marinas in Göcek bay and the town's proximity to the pretty
islands and bays in the
Fethiye Gulf, has made it a popular
harbor town offering every kinds of service to yachtsmen, a
laid-back nightlife and quaint streets lined with pretty
buildings. Göcek Bay makes an excellent overnight stop on any
cruise
After breakfast, we sail to the spectacularly stunning Bedri
Rahmi Bay, named after a famous Turkish artist and then to
Sarsala Bay. Cruise to Aga Limani after lunch. Overnight stay
in this lovely bay..
Bedri Rahmi Bay is one of the most popular bays in the
Fethiye
Gulf, which is located opposite from Tersane (Dockyard) Island
. Bedri Rahmi was a great writer and painter of Turkey. He and
his close friends were the first blue voyagers of the country
who discovered the beautiful Lycian coast and informed people
about these beauties. On one of his cruises, he painted a fish
on a rock (left) behind a fountain of the bay in 1973, and ever
since the bay has been called by his name. The bay is well
protected against the wind and suitable for anchoring. Pine,
olive trees and oleander flowers on the surrounding slopes,
small beach and crystal - clear water complement the historical
remains on the hill and create an idyllic setting. There are
many Lycian rock tombs hidden behind the trees, as well as ones
shaped like pigeonholes on a great rock. You can also see a
rock tomb with an ornamented door and a triple tomb on the
slope. According to the ancient historians, the city that is
located behind of the hill was the Lycian town Crya.
After breakfast, depending on the weather, depart early for
Cape Kumlubuk with swim stops along the way. Tea is served at 5
pm somewhere in the vicinity of Paradise / Cennet Island. Afterwards we
sail to Marmaris port. Overnight stay at Marmaris Harbour.
Guests wishing to see more of
Marmaris
are recommended to go to the city center and experience the
lively night life.
