Day 1. Fethiye Marmaris Fethiye Cruises
Day 1 | Welcome to Fethiye: Boarding, Sunset Cruise & Nightlife Options
We board the gulet at Fethiye Port around 16:00-17:00, right where the Aegean meets the Mediterranean. Once all guests have arrived, we set sail toward Çığlık Bay, where you’ll enjoy your first dinner on board and settle in for the night.
If any guests are delayed due to flight schedules or traffic, the boat will remain at the marina instead. In this case, you’ll have the chance to explore Fethiye’s vibrant bazaar, bars, and nightlife, and the boat will spend the night at the port.
Day 2 | Tersane Island, Ağa Limanı: History, Calm Waters & Starry Night
After breakfast, we cruise toward Tersane Island, the largest island in the Gulf of Fethiye. Once an ancient Roman and later Greek shipyard, the island is dotted with waterfront ruins, stone houses, and half-sunken walls that tell the story of a once-bustling harbour. You’ll have time to walk along the shoreline, explore the remains of the settlement, or simply relax on deck and enjoy the view. We anchor here for lunch, served in front of the island’s sheltered bay — a calm and scenic spot perfect for swimming or snorkelling among the remnants of history below the surface.
In the afternoon, we continue toward Ağa Limanı, one of the most peaceful natural harbours on the route. We’ll enjoy dinner here and spend the night anchored at Ağa Limanı, where the still water and clear sky create the perfect setting for stargazing from the deck.
Day 3 | Ekincik, Dalyan Discovery
We start the day in the tranquil waters of Ekincik. After anchoring, you may relax on board or join a Dalyan tour (optional). A traditional boat ride takes you through the scenic reed-lined canals, home to the famous loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta Caretta). Along the river, you’ll admire the impressive Lycian rock tombs carved into the cliffs and visit the ancient city of Kaunos, with its historic theater and ruins. You may also enjoy a rejuvenating mud bath and unwind at the pristine Turtle Beach.
We spend our third night in Ekincik, surrounded by nature.
Day 4 | Marmaris, Cennet Bay
After breakfast and a swim in Turunç Bükü, we cruise into Marmaris Harbour. You’ll have free time to explore — stroll the old town streets, grab a cold drink by the marina, or shop in the vibrant bazaar.
Once everyone is back on board, we sail to Cennet Bay, a tranquil spot surrounded by nature, where we enjoy dinner and stay overnight under the stars.
Day 5 | Kumlubük, Semizce Bay
After breakfast, we leave Marmaris and cruise along the stunning coastline toward Kumlubük Bay, famous for its crystal-clear waters and scenic mountain backdrop. Here you can swim, sunbathe on deck, or explore the shoreline before lunch.
In the afternoon, we continue to Semizce Bay, a peaceful and untouched anchorage surrounded by pure nature. It’s the perfect spot to disconnect from everything — enjoy a sunset swim, relax on the boat, and savor a calm evening. Dinner and overnight stay will be in Semizce Bay, under the quiet glow of the stars.
Day 6 | Göcek Bay, Kuyruk Burnu, Sunken Hamam Bay, Bedri Rahmi Bay / Sarsala Bay
We begin the day early as we cruise through the stunning coves of Göcek Bay. Our first stop is Kuyruk Burnu, where you can enjoy a refreshing swim before heading to Sunken Hamam Bay for breakfast. Here,
the remains of ancient Roman baths can be seen beneath the water — a unique spot where history meets crystal-clear turquoise seas.
In the afternoon, we sail to either Bedri Rahmi Bay, named after the famous Turkish artist, known for its painted rock fish and lush nature, or the tranquil Sarsala Bay, surrounded by pine-covered hills. We’ll anchor here for a peaceful evening, dinner on board, and an overnight stay under the stars.
Day 7 | Yassica Island, Return to Fethiye
After breakfast, we cruise through the Fethiye Gulf, stopping at a few scenic bays before reaching Yassica Island for lunch and swim in its shallow turquoise waters.
For guests with early transfers or evening flights, the boat will sail back to Fethiye Harbour, allowing for a stress-free departure. Spend the final night on board at the harbour, with the option to explore Fethiye’s lively marina, restaurants, and bars before disembarking the next morning.
Day 8 | Farewell in Fethiye
After a final breakfast on board, it’s time to say goodbye to the crew and the gulet. Disembark at Fethiye Harbour at 09:00, marking the end of your unforgettable Turquoise Coast adventure.
