If you're a group
charter a whole boat

A complete boat can be yours, just put a group together and you are among yourself and the only one on a traditional wooden Gullet. Such a trip is also a good idea for clubs and other parties. From 10 persons onward we reserve a boat for you and suggest the best itinerary.
Gullet Special Offer


What to bring
Travel light is our best advice to you, swimwear and T-shirts is all you will need on board in the daytime. In the evenings people dress casually, but bring sweaters and trousers if you are coming in the cooler months. It's a good idea to bring a pair of soft shoes or sandals just to use on the boat.
On board we provide hand towels only so please bring your own bath and beach towels. All this should be packed into a soft bag which can be folded and stowed away to give more room in your cabin, not a suitcase.
The Mediterranean sun is very bright and on a boat hotter than you think, be sure to pack sunglasses, a good suntan lotion and a hat. If mosquitoes find you tasty then bring mosquito repellent and a camera is an absolute must.



An alternative to chartering an entire boat is to join one of our regular departures and book a cabin. You will have a chance to meet people from around the world while enjoying one of the most unique and relaxing holidays in the Turkish Aegean.You are not going with the crowd. You are on a boat that you share with some other couples, having your own crew that will be there for your needs. You may participate in sailing, have the chance to explore every little bay and on your route.

These mini blue cruises departing several days during the week, from the end of April till October, but still early reservation is recommended to guaranty availability. For April and October please ask for availability several weeks before the departure date.

Your floating home will be 18/24 meters (55-74 feet) long, 5/8 double cabins with ensuite toilette and shower. Sailing, snorkeling, fishing, sunbathing are some of the activities on board. Breakfast, lunch & dinner will be served by your cook

Göcek_bay

 

Fethiye - rock tombs

 

You will sail on this itinerary mainly to secluded bays for many swim stops in the clear blue waters and down to Fethiye (ancient Termessos with it's Rock tombs) and Ölü Deniz. The famous historian Herodotus said about this place: "If the gods would descend to earth, they would choose to live at Ölü Deniz."
Around Fethiye, there are important ancient cities of the Lycians.

Tersane Island is the biggest island in the gulf of Fethiye. The island was deserted after the population exchange took place, which left many ruins from the Greek occupation. You will notice a watch tower and shipyard as soon as you arrive from which the island was named.

Cleopatra's Bath - near Göcek

 

Cleopatra's Bath - near Göcek

 

Tasyaka Bay located northwest of the Tersane Bay is known for the famous painter Bedri Rahmi Eyüboglu and his friends who visited during the 1970’s and felt such admiration for the beauty of the bay they then called it Bedri Rahmi Bay. There is a drawing on the rock at the entrance of the bay painted by Bedri Rahmi.

YAVANSU BAYs, These bays offer a magnificent underwater view where you can see a tropical underwater vista. There is a restaurant within each bay offering differing tastes and atmospheres. The quiet and calm nature of the bays makes them an ideal place for the sailors who are looking for a safe anchorage. You can relax and enjoy the beauty of these bays under the pine forest. Should you wish to go ashore, take a walk and explore the bay this can easily be done.


Cabin Charter - general information

Gulet for Cabin Charter on a Blue Cruise

 

All yachts are between 19 - 25 meters length,
these vessels accommodate between 12 and 16 guests in 6 to 8 cabins. The cabins have en-suite WC & handheld showers. (Hot & cold). There is a music set, VHF Radiotelephone and a dinghy on each yacht, but in general no air condition. Crew consists of a captain, cook and a deckshand.
An exact yacht’s name can not be available until 1 or 2 days before departure, as numbers of bookings come in often late. This works well over the years like a cooperative and we advice you to give us your mobile phone that we stay in contact to give you captain's number and boat name.
