Dive into the turquoise waters of Cleopatra’s Baths, swim above ancient Roman ruins, and sail the glowing Turkish coastline from Fethiye to Marmaris on a traditional gulet. This 4-day one-way cruise is a unique blend of sea, sun, and discovery — designed for travellers who want to experience the Turkish Riviera from the water, not the shore.

Cruise through hidden bays, jump into crystal-clear lagoons, and explore iconic stops like Dalyan, where you pass Lycian rock tombs and sink into famous mineral mud baths. Stop at quiet coves like Merdivenli Koyu, relax on sun-soaked decks, and arrive in lively Marmaris for seaside cafés, bazaars, and nightlife. Every day brings swimming stops, coastal views, and new places to explore.

Live onboard a traditional Turkish wooden gulet with a social, youthful atmosphere for guests 18–39. Enjoy comfortable ensuite cabins with air-conditioning, unlimited drinking water, and freshly prepared Turkish meals included daily. Balance relaxation and adventure as you sunbathe on deck, dive into the sea, and share unforgettable evenings under the stars.

Route details

Step aboard your gulet in Fethiye at 9 am, meet your crew, and sail into the turquoise waters of the Turkish Riviera. Swap busy streets for open sea views, sunny decks, and the laid-back rhythm of life on the water.

Cruise toward Cleopatra’s Baths, where ancient Roman ruins rest beneath crystal-clear water. Dive straight from the deck, swim above submerged stone walls, and soak in one of the coast’s most iconic swimming spots.

Later, anchor at Merdivenli Koyu, a secluded bay surrounded by caves and rocky cliffs. Explore the shoreline, relax on deck, or join an optional walk to a traditional shepherd village hidden in the hills.

As the sun sets, enjoy dinner onboard and spend the night surrounded by calm Mediterranean waters and star-filled skies.

Cabin on the boat

3 nights

Enjoy 3 nights onboard a traditional Turkish gulet — a handcrafted wooden motor-yacht designed for comfortable cruising along the coast. Accommodating around 16 to 19 passengers, these charming vessels offer a relaxed and social atmosphere, with spacious decks ideal for sunbathing, enjoying the sea breeze, or diving straight into crystal-clear waters.

Accommodation is provided on a Premier Overnight Air-Conditioned Gulet, offering an upgraded experience compared to standard Classic Plus gulets. These boats are slightly larger and more spacious, with enhanced comfort features including hotel-style bathrooms with separate shower cabins rather than compact wet-room facilities.

Compact ensuite cabins with hotel-style shower rooms and toilets, overnight air-conditioning, and comfortable beds so you can sleep in your private cabin each night. Unlimited bottled drinking water is included throughout the cruise.
