After breakfast, you will be informed about the cruise itinerary and the gulet. Then we will cruise to Ekincik Gulf.
Ekincik
is an unspoiled natural wonder, blessed with breathtaking beauty. It is
uncrowded, pretty and tranquil with a nice little beach nearby. The
coastal road there is gorgeous too and is a good base for boat trips and
walking tours.
The 2 km long stretch of the unspoilt gravel beach
meets a small harbor from which the boats departs to Dalyan, located
approximately 45 minutes away. The scenery is stunning and there are
many opportunities to observe the local wildlife. On the beach there is a
small range of water sports facilities available including bananaboat
and waterski.
You may join our optional Dalyan Tour from here. You
will be taken from your yacht by a small boat called “piyade”. Firstly
arrive at CarettaCaretta (turtle) beach and a take a swim stop here. You
will enjoy the natural beauty of the delta as you sail along in the
river boat. 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 destinations after we return to our yacht by piyade
boat. Dinner and overnight stay will be in the Gulf of Ekincik.
At
sunset, the sun hits the stones and turns crimson red in color, a color
that resembles the island soil. The island got its name from this
phenomenon. There is very little infrastructure on this island. The
southern tip of the island has a lighthouse that guides maritime
traffic. To the northwest are theDeliktasIslands, ideal for diving and
fishing. The red waves off the east coast of the island wash the wide
sand beach and are best suited for swimming. After spend some time in
Kizil Island we will sail to Fethiye.
Fethiye is a natural harbor
city in the western Mediterranean. It's a very popular holiday center
with its magnificent natural beauty and ancient Lycian towns. Oludeniz
considered the most beautiful beach in Turkey is nearby, and it is a
popular place to start a blue voyage yacht cruise.
If all places
and all seas were known by a colour, Fethiye’s colour would be
turquoise. The word turquoise, a blue that has more than a hint of
green, comes from the blue used in the Turkish tile work. The most
beautiful shade of the colour blue came and settled on the waters of the
oludeniz (Dead Sea). Towards evening, around sunset, you catch such a
wonderful turquoise you can never see on any other seas. If you call it
blue you are wrong, if you say it is green it is not that either but
both together. It is difficult to put it into words. It is best if you
go and see it for yourself and be hit by a lightening bolt! Dinner and
overnight stay will be at Fethiye Harbor.
Day 4 : Gocek, Yassica Island
After
the breakfast, we will be visiting uniquely beautiful islands and
finally hoist near Gocek. Following lunch and a swimming break we will
cruise to Yassica islands to spend the night and cherish the wonderful
scenery.
Some of these islands appear as the Yassica Islands group
on several maritime maps. Anchorage is available at the nearest port of
Gocek. Yassica Islands in the Gulf of Fethiye is one of the most
romantic places, ideal for spending quality time with your partner and
photographing gorgeous sunsets. The islands are covered with pine and
olive trees, have many sheltered and shallow bays and are ideal for
water sports enthusiasts.
Day 5 : Bedri Rahmi Bay, Domuz Island, Aga Limani
Bedri
Rahmi Bay, the shipyard in the Gulf of Fethiye is located just across
the island. It is also known by the Lycian name of Tasyaka or ‘dark
bay’, due to its natural beauty and historical significance. Bedri Rahmi
Eyuboglu was an esteemed master of Turkish literature, art and
painting. In the summer of 1973, during a cruise with close friends, he
drew a fish on a huge rock. This ‘Fish Rock’ located at the entrance of
the blue bay still greets passengers. In fact, the region itself is
known as ‘Fish Rock’ in honor of the great master.
Bedri Rahmi Bay
is well sheltered from strong winds and is therefore a good point of
anchorage. It is also known for its pine and olive covering the hills
behind the oleander flowers, small beaches and turquoise waters,
creating a image of fantastic proportions!
Day 6 : Kumlu Buku, Cennet Island

we will cruise to Kumlubuk Bay early in the morning. Breakfast will be
