FAQs
What are the highlights of chartering a yacht in Turkey?
The Turquoise Coast (Turkish Riviera)
Fethiye sits at the heart of Turkey’s famed Turquoise Coast, one of the Mediterranean’s most celebrated cruising grounds. Calm, clear waters, gentle winds, and easy line-of-sight navigation make this region ideal for relaxed sailing. Chartering here gives you access to secluded coves, island-lined bays, and warm, sheltered gulfs framed by pine forests and dramatic limestone cliffs. With countless anchorage options and beautiful scenery in every direction, this coastline remains a favorite among sailors seeking both tranquility and exploration.
Göcek Bays & Island-Hopping Paradise
Just north of Fethiye lies the Göcek archipelago, a sailor’s haven filled with pristine bays and pine-covered hillsides. Discover iconic stops like Wall Bay, Sarsala, Kapi Creek, and the peaceful inlets tucked between uninhabited islands. The region’s calm waters are perfect for swimming, snorkeling, paddleboarding, and leisurely afternoons at anchor. With so many coves only accessible by boat, you’ll enjoy a private, unspoiled side of Turkey that few visitors ever see.
Ancient History at Every Turn
Turkey’s Lycian Coast blends natural beauty with extraordinary layers of history. Sail past dramatic cliffside Lycian rock tombs, explore the remains of ancient harbors, or kayak over the sunken city of Kekova, often described as a real-life Atlantis. Nearby archaeological treasures include the ancient ruins of Tlos, the ghost village of Kayaköy, and the classical city of Kaunos. Chartering in this region means each anchorage is not only stunning, but often steeped in stories thousands of years old.
Cultural & Culinary Riches
A yacht charter in Turkey is also a journey through its vibrant and diverse cultural heritage. Experience warm Turkish hospitality in waterfront tavernas, where you can savor fresh seafood, meze platters, grilled meats, and traditional sweets like baklava and Turkish delight. Wander through local markets, sample regional olive oils and herbs, or enjoy a Turkish tea in a quiet coastal village. From Ottoman architecture to Mediterranean flavors, Turkey offers an irresistible blend of influences that enrich every stop along your route.
