From Rhodes we will set sail towards the Turkish coast, to explore the splendid Gulf of Marmaris. After customs formalities, our journey will begin along one of the most fascinating areas of the Mediterranean: Lycia, a land of ancient civilizations, where imposing mountains alternate with quiet bays and archaeological sites immersed in nature.
The citadel of Marmaris, nestled on a promontory surrounded by forests, overlooks a long golden beach and welcomes visitors with its old town and stone castle.
From there we will set sail for Ençirlik, a charming bay nestled among pine trees, ideal for a relaxing anchorage in the greenery.
Sailing towards Dalyan, we will go up the river on a local boat until we reach the famous rock tombs carved into the rock: a breathtaking sight. Nearby Kyizilkuyruk Koyu, we can explore the ruins of ancient Lydae, in a solitary and suggestive site.
Among fragrant pines and spectacular cliffs, there are a succession of bays of unique charm: Ragged Bay, Ruin Bay (also known as Cleopatra's Bay, with archaeological remains a few steps from the sea), Wall Bay and Deep Bay, just to name a few.
Our itinerary will continue between the bays of Göcek and Fethiye, paradises for sailing, where we will stop for splendid baths, dives and moments of relaxation at anchor.
For those who want to extend the adventure, it will be possible to continue sailing to Antalya, along a wild coast full of surprises. It is really worth it.
