Guaranteed departures are scheduled every Saturday at 18:30, from 16 May 2026 to 10 October 2026.

Day 1: Saturday – Marmaris

Boarding at Marmaris Harbour begins around 16:30. After a short welcome briefing, you will have free time to explore the lively streets of Marmaris and make any final preparations before departure. Our gulet sets sail at the scheduled time of 18:30.

We then begin a pleasant cruise toward a nearby bay, where dinner will be served and we will anchor for the night.

For guests arriving late, we will direct you to a suitable meeting point outside Marmaris, such as Adaköy Marina or Kumlubük, where you will be transferred to the gulet by tender. Guests are responsible for reaching these designated points on their own.

Dinner will be served on board by the crew. However, for guests arriving after 21:30, a light meal package (such as sandwiches, fruit, etc.) will be provided instead.

Day 2: Sunday – Ekincik & Dalyan

After breakfast, we set sail toward Ekincik Bay, a wonderful stop especially for guests who enjoy swimming, snorkeling and making the most of the sea.

Those wishing to enrich their day may join an optional Dalyan excursion. Highlights of this tour include a river journey through maze-like reed channels, the impressive Lycian Rock Tombs, the ancient city of Kaunos, and the protected İztuzu Beach, famous for its Caretta Caretta sea turtles.

Guests who do not join the excursion are welcome to continue relaxing on the gulet; swimming, sunbathing and enjoying the beauty of the bay. Dinner and overnight stay will be in Ekincik Bay.

Day 3: Monday- Hammam & Shipyard Island

In the early hours of the morning, we begin cruising toward the Gulf of Göcek. Our first stop of the day is Hammam Bay (Cleopatra’s Bath).

Cleopatra Bay (Hammam) contains the ruins of an ancient Lycian-era bathhouse, said to have been built as a gift for Queen Cleopatra during her visit to the Mediterranean coast.

According to legend, the natural hot spring in the bay was believed to soothe skin conditions and was considered one of Cleopatra’s beauty secrets. In the early morning, when the water is calm, you can see the sand shifting at the bottom of the sunken ruins. This is a subtle sign that the warm spring beneath the bay is still active.

After lunch, our route continues to Tersane (Shipyard) Island, the largest of the Göcek islands. It takes its name from its use as a shipyard during the Ottoman era.

The island was inhabited until the Treaty of Lausanne and you can still see remains of the former Greek settlement, as well as ruins of the old shipyard and the watchtower. The island is also home to many mountain goats and there is a small restaurant available for visitors. Tersane Island is divided into two parts: Winter Harbor and Summer Harbor. You’ll find most of the historical ruins on the Winter Harbor side.

Dinner service and overnight stay will be on board here.

Day 4: Tuesday – Kızılada & Fethiye

After a refreshing swim and lunch break at Kizilada (Red Island), we continue our journey toward Fethiye; one of Turkey’s most beloved coastal towns, known for its historical charm and warm atmosphere.

Red Island (Kizilada) is home to a 19th-century lighthouse and is a popular stop on yacht charters around Fethiye.

In a remarkable historical event, on 3 August 1953, Air France Flight 152 made an emergency landing in the sea near the island. The lighthouse keeper and local fishermen managed to rescue 38 of the total 42 (8 crew members and 34 passengers) people on board. The wreckage of the aircraft has never been found and remains somewhere beneath the sea.

There are also several optional excursions available for guests. Those who wish may join a safari tour, exploring some of Fethiye’s natural highlights such as Yakapark, Gizlikent Waterfall and the impressive Saklıkent Canyon.

Guests who prefer not to join the excursion can visit Fethiye’s vibrant Tuesday Market, where you can browse fresh local produce and traditional regional delicacies grown in the area’s fertile climate.

For guests who choose to remain on board, the gulet will anchor at Samanlik Bay. After lunch is served, you can enjoy swimming, sunbathing and relaxing in the peaceful surroundings.
Around 16:00, we return to Fethiye Harbour.

5. Gün: Wednesday –Yassıcalar & Göcek Island

The Yassıca (Flat) Islands consist of several small islets, the largest of which even has a small natural lagoon. Located within the Gulf of Fethiye, they are among the best places to anchor, swim and spend the day. Covered with pine and olive trees, the islands are ideal for water-sport enthusiasts and also great for hiking. You’ll also find small local stalls selling snacks.

Throughout the day, you can swim, snorkel to explore the underwater world or simply relax on deck and enjoy the sun and scenery. Meanwhile, our crew will prepare and serve a delicious lunch on board.

Dinner and overnight stay will be at Göcek Island, one of the most popular anchorage spots in the region.

Day 6: Thursday – Bedri Rahmi, Sarsala & Aga Harbour

We begin the day in Bedri Rahmi Bay. The bay originally known as Tasyaka was renamed Bedri Rahmi Bay after the famous Turkish painter visited in 1974 and created an artwork on a large seaside rock.

Bedri Rahmi Eyüboğlu gifted the bay a now-iconic piece of art: a fish-shaped rock engraving that actually contains six hidden animals cleverly woven into the design. Over time, this artwork became the symbol of the bay, helping it grow into one of Göcek’s most beloved and frequently visited anchorages.

After an enjoyable swimming break, we continue to Sarsala Bay, which once served as a grain loading point during the Ottoman era. In the afternoon, our route takes us to Ağa Harbour. Guests who wish may take a pleasant 30-40 minute hike to the ancient city of Lydae, where they can explore tomb remains, temple foundations and panoramic views.

Dinner and overnight stay will be in one of the peaceful bays of the region.

Day 7: Friday – Kumlubük, Paradise Adası & Marmaris

After breakfast, we set sail toward Kumlubük Bay. Here, guests may visit the ancient city of Amos, explore the Hisarburnu area or discover the small cave known for its natural dripstone formations. Following lunch and a relaxing swim break, we continue to Cennet (Paradise) Island, where you’ll have your final chance to enjoy the crystal-clear waters of the cruise. Guests who wish may also visit the Nimara Cave.

Around 16:00, we return to Marmaris Harbour. The evening is free for you to explore the town at your leisure, and dinner is not served on board.

Day 8: Saturday – Marmaris

After breakfast, it’s time to say goodbye. Disembarkation is at 10:00 AM. Your unforgettable Marmaris Fethiye Gulet Cruise experience in Turkey comes to an end but the memories will stay with you forever.
