Private Gulet Cruise: Turquoise Bays & Ancient Ruins

Sail the impossibly blue Aegean aboard a handcrafted wooden gulet, anchoring in secluded coves inaccessible by road. Swim off sunken ruins, lunch on fresh meze, and watch the sun dip behind pine-clad cliffs — a defining Turkish Riviera memory.

What to expect

Board your varnished gulet at Marmaris Marina and sail into the Bay of Marmaris, threading between forested islands. Your captain steers to exclusive anchorages: Turunç Cove, Kumlubük, and the glittering shallows of Cennet Adası. An onboard chef serves grilled sea bass, stuffed vine leaves, and chilled Turkish rosé on the aft deck. Swim, paddleboard, or simply lie on the sunbathing cushions as the mountains frame the horizon.

Good to know

Book at least 2–3 weeks ahead; confirm your all-aboard time with reception and ask the captain to be back in Marmaris Marina 90 minutes prior. Fuel, crew, and lunch are typically included in premium charters — confirm when booking.
