Itinerary
Welcome aboard! Embarkation opens at 15:00 at Fethiye Marina, where you will be met by our crew and invited to settle into your private en suite cabin. Once safety briefings are complete, we slip our moorings and set sail into the open gulf, leaving the mainland behind. Our late afternoon destination is the sheltered cove of Tarzan Bay, famous for its clear turquoise waters and cliffside rope swings. Enjoy your first dive into the Mediterranean before gathering open-air on deck for a freshly prepared evening dinner under the stars.
Wake up to tranquil waters before we navigate into the protected island maze of Göcek. Our morning cruise glides along pine-covered shorelines toward Cleopatra’s Bath (Hamam Bay), where you can swim directly over partially submerged Roman stone foundations. We then anchor at Bedri Rahmi Bay to view the famous rock carved fish art, followed by afternoon snorkeling in the shallow, clear waters surrounding Tersane (Shipyard) Island. By evening, we dock near the polished harbor of Göcek, offering the perfect setting for a waterfront walk, local meze tasting, and harborfront dining.
We set sail westward along the coast toward the wide, peaceful waters of Ekincik Bay. Surrounded by forest draped mountains, this quiet inlet is ideal for paddleboarding or swimming straight from the stern platform. Guests looking for land exploration can take an optional small-boat excursion into the Dalyan Delta, navigating reed lined river channels to view the ancient Lycian rock tombs carved into the cliff faces, visit protected Turtle Beach (İztuzu), and try the mineral mud baths. In the late afternoon, we reconvene on the gulet for a relaxing seafood dinner as dusk settles over the bay.
Our day begins with an early swim stop in the calm, deep-blue waters of Kumlubük Bay, with an optional morning hike up to the hilltop ruins of ancient Amos for sweeping views across the gulf. Later, we drop anchor at Cennet Adası (Paradise Island) for a final afternoon swim and tea on deck beneath pine covered hills. By late afternoon, we round the headland into Marmaris Harbour. Spend your final evening exploring the Ottoman era old town, wandering lively bazaar alleys, or enjoying dinner along the vibrant harbor promenade.
Savor a final Turkish breakfast on deck as the harbor wakes up around you. Disembarkation takes place at Marmaris Marina around 09:30. Bid farewell to your captain, crew, and fellow travelers as your Mediterranean sea voyage comes to a close, leaving you perfectly positioned to explore Marmaris or continue your journey across Türkiye.

It's my second year doing a sailing cruise with Gulet Cruises and I absolutely love it!
The crew is always very good, the food is to die for, the cabins are very clean and large enough if you have to share with someone. There are different spaces where you can relax or sunbathe on the boat, the stops in the different bays are always beautiful and you can go on the land for short excursions in cute villages or climb a hill for a sunset!
Already looking forward to my 3rd trip next year!
