Day 1

Gather at the gulet in Marmaris harbour at 11:00 a.m. for boarding and a brief welcome introduction from your captain and crew. Once you are settled into your cabin, the anchor is raised to begin your voyage along the scenic coastline of the Turkish Riviera.

The first stop is the picturesque Kadırga Bay, where you can dive into crystal clear waters for a refreshing swim or simply relax on deck in the peaceful surroundings. As the afternoon unfolds, the cruise continues toward Bozukkale, a secluded bay famous for its historic atmosphere and dramatic coastal views.

Your gulet anchors here for the night, providing the perfect setting to unwind, enjoy a freshly prepared dinner on board, and watch the sun set over the Aegean Sea.

Day 2

Wake up to the remarkably clear waters of Palamutbükü, a bay celebrated for its exceptional visibility and calm, inviting atmosphere. This is the perfect setting for a morning swim or a quiet moment on deck as the sun rises over the Datça Peninsula.

Later, the gulet sets sail for the ancient city of Knidos, one of the most significant archaeological sites on the Aegean coast. Positioned on a dramatic headland where two seas meet, the ruins of ancient temples and theaters offer a fascinating glimpse into classical history.

In the late afternoon, the journey continues toward Datça Old Town, famous for its honey colored stone architecture and relaxed harbor vibe. Guests can wander through narrow streets, browse local artisan boutiques, or enjoy a sunset drink at a waterfront café before returning to the gulet for a peaceful night at anchor.
