Tour Plan

Join your gulet at Fethiye Harbor between 07:00-09:00. Departure is set for 09:00. We set sail towards Göcek Island and the stunning Yassica Islands—a cluster of small pine-covered islets surrounded by impossibly turquoise waters. This is one of the most photographed spots on the Turkish coast. Swim, snorkel, or simply relax on deck as the crew serves a delicious lunch. The shallow, warm waters and pristine beaches make this a perfect day for water activities. Dinner and overnight at Göcek Island, one of the most iconic anchorages in the region.

Our morning begins at Bedri Rahmi Bay, named after the famous Turkish poet and painter Bedri Rahmi Eyüboglu who immortalized the area with his fish painting on a rock in 1974. A beautiful spot for a morning swim surrounded by natural beauty. Next, we head to Sarsala Bay, once used as a grain export harbor during Ottoman times—traces of the old stone pier and customs house remain as silent witnesses to history. In the afternoon, we sail to Aga Port, where adventurous guests can take a hiking path that leads to the ancient city of Lydae (Klydai) in about 30-40 minutes. Dinner and overnight in this peaceful bay under the stars.

After breakfast, we cruise towards Kumlubük Bay. This area is rich in history and natural wonders—home to Amos Ancient City with its amphitheater ruins, Hisarburnu promontory, and a fascinating cave filled with stalactites and stalagmites perfect for adventurous swimmers. Enjoy lunch and a swim stop in this beautiful setting. Later, we anchor at Paradise Island (Cennet Adasi), the last swimming stop of our journey. Here you can visit the remarkable Nimara Cave, which has been used by ancient civilizations since the Paleolithic era—archaeological finds date back over 10,000 years. By around 16:00 we return to Marmaris Harbor. Guests may spend the evening exploring Marmaris's charming old town, castle, and legendary nightlife. Dinner is NOT served on board tonight.

After breakfast on board, it's time to bid farewell to your crew and fellow travelers. Disembarkation is by 10:00. Your mini Blue Voyage journey ends with unforgettable memories of hidden bays, turquoise waters, and the timeless beauty of the Turkish coast. Safe travels!
