Between Marmaris and Dalyan, lies Ekincik, a tranquil paradise is the ideal spot to soak in the fascinating surroundings without any distractions. The wild, pine covered bay of Kurkculer has a lovely, long stretch of beach to enjoy an afternoon of sunrays. This is an ideal place to leave your boat and visit the fascinating ancient ruins of Kaunos which date back to 400 BC.

day 2

Ekincik - Gocek

duration

2h 50m

distance

This popular, luxury yachting destination is one of the greatest places to sail. Göcek is a vibrant resort town, yet has managed to avoid the excess of overdevelopment, maintaining its authentic charm. It is a favorite watering hole of celebrities, with its lively bars and restaurants along the promenade. This charming town is home to a permanent population of only around 4,500 and is the ideal spot from where you can visit many of the region’s famous cultural and historical sites such as Kaunos, Telmessos, Xanthos, Letoon and Patara. Göcek itself has one beach, however sailing further out to the 12 islands, you will find a swimming and snorkeling paradise, with their impeccably clean water, pine forests and beautiful beaches.

day 3

Gocek - Butterfly Valley

duration

1h 40m

distance

20nm

The Butterfly Valley on Turkey’s Turquoise Coast is every inch as idyllic as it sounds. Situated in the southwest of the country, this area is already a vision of golden beaches, woven blues, sunlight, and bleached rock, but the Butterfly Valley is stand out bliss. Fertile, lush, and draped in greenery, charter guests can enter a world of tumbling waterfalls, dark shady forest, pure white sands, and over a hundred different species of bright butterflies. In homage to the heavenly sense of natural wonder abundantly found in the valley, the area is beautifully preserved with starlight and sunsets lighting the way – there’s little electricity or lavish tourist comforts.

day 4

Butterfly Valley - Cleopatra's Bath

duration

1h 55m

distance

23nm

Situated 50km from Fethiye lies the remains of Cleopatra’s baths – legend has it built by Marc Antony as a wedding gift to Cleopatra, and with it, golden sands imported from Egypt. These impressive baths were built here because of the thermal waters stemming from a volcanic crater nearby. Whether or not you’ll be swimming amongst such legends is debatable, but one thing is for sure: you will be swimming in clean, crystal-clear waters, which is why Turkey is so enviably famous.

day 5

Cleopatra's Bath - Tersane Island

duration

1h

distance

12nm

On the gauzy Gulf of Fethiye, you will find Tersane Island, which is the largest island in the Fethiye Bay and is hard to miss. Also going by the name of Dock Island, Tersane is a popular cruising stop-off point as it is home to ruins from the Lycian era and boasts a beautiful shallow cove that is almost lake-like in its still and clear blue appearance. There is so much history housed in every corner of Tersane Island – from ancient Greeks to Ottoman fleets; you can see the pieces of this history in the remnants of Byzantine churches, houses, and even paintings on rocks. As this spot was also assumed to be a place where ships and boats would be repaired, it’s well worth grabbing your snorkel or diving gear to discover treasures of the deep.

day 6

Tersane Island - Oludeniz

duration

1h 15m

distance

15nm

The dazzling beauty of Oludeniz will take your breath away as soon as you glimpse the turquoise lagoon shimmering flanked by rolling emerald cliffs. The crescent of soft sand, the bright paragliders circling overhead, and the scent of fresh pine rolling down the mountain make Oludeniz and the Blue Lagoon one of the most spectacular places in Turkey. There’s no better way to spend the day than diving off the superyacht and sipping chilled drinks in the shade. With five-star amenities on your doorstep in Oludeniz, you can also opt to indulge in spas and starlit suppers along the stretch of the sugary coast.

day 7

Oludeniz - Marmaris

duration

4h 15m

distance

50nm

Marmaris, like so many other places in Turkey, was once a lovely little fishing port, but in the past 20 years, it has grown in to a thriving resort town popular with luxury yachts and is now home to Turkey’s largest marina. The busy promenade offers local restaurants and bars, with a lively atmosphere to relax in, on warm summer evenings, and the bustling bazaars in the old quarter of town are great for exploring. Being at the heart of the Turquoise Coast, Marmaris is of course popular for its numerous beautiful beaches, including the famous Icmeler beach which is ideal for watersports. Further along the coast you will be able to explore smaller bays and coves off which you can anchor and enjoy diving and snorkeling or basking on a deserted beach.
