Apart from private charters, we also offer
cruises on a shared- yacht basis for individuals, couples and small groups. Our Cabin
Charters have guaranteed departures from Marmaris, Antalya and Bodrum and generally run
from Saturday to Saturday from late April through to October.
 On the
first day of the charter, you will be transferred from the airport or your hotel to the
yacht. If it is from the airport, your transfer will take between half an hour and three
and a half hours, depending on your airport of arrival. This cross-country trip will give
you an opportunity to view the landscape and observe the locals going about their work.
The following morning, the yacht departs from the harbour and begins a leisurely tour,
returning to port late the following week. More information concerning departure dates and
prices are given in our Tariff Sheets. click for
price information.
Cabin charters are traditionally made by wooden
Gulet and our fleet of these vessels accommodate between 8 and 12 persons, depending on
the final group size. A yacht’s name will not be avail- able until the day of departure,
as numbers will only be known a day or two prior to the tour’s commencement.
Diving enthusiasts can join one of five cabin
charter diving tours during the season. Diving cabin charters start and finish in Bodrum,
just a half hour drive from the Bodrum Airport.
You may like to opt for a one-way tour between
Bodrum and Marmaris, during which time you will visit two Greek islands, either Rhodes or
Kos and Symi. These tours alternate over a fortnight, the first week’s cruise being
Bodrum - Kos - Marmaris, and the second week’s cruise being Marmaris – Rhodes –
Bodrum.
Gulets cruise from place to place, raising the
sails when the wind is favourable. If sailing is important to you, please make this known
to us when you make your booking – this way, you have the opportunity to join a group of
like-minded people aboard a sailing yacht.
Your captain will see to it that your cruise
moves along at a good pace. He decides on departure times, excursion times and meal times
according to the composition of the group, the day of the week and weather conditions. The
captain is responsible for the safety of the vessel and its passengers and has the right
to alter the itinerary when necessary.
Group composition makes for an interesting tour:
do not be surprised if you share your yacht with a number of different nationalities. Meal
times will provide you with a good opportunity to get to know one another and you will
find that strangers who share a love of the sea and an interest in nature and history
quickly turn into friends.
The crew aboard our Gulets and yachts often do
not have a foreign language mastered, but they almost always know a few ’every- day’
phrases and are able to understand almost all requests.

Mini Blue Voyage
For each scheduled departure trip, there is the
option of a mini cruise, a half week tour made up of three nights on board. If you would
like just a half-week cruise, you pay half the normal weekly price and go just one way.
First Class Cabin Charter
This is the cabin charter for those who are after
something a little more special and a little more upmarket. Our First Class Cabin Charters
offer guests an air-conditioned vessel (during July and August) of superior quality. On
board service is of a high standard and the yacht is equipped for both relaxation and
leisure activities.
This tour starts and finishes in Marmaris, taking
in the pine- forested beauty of the Gulf of Fethiye. Guests are treated to an
afternoon’s excursion to the ruins of ancient Caunos and the river-side town of Dalyan.
Local drinks are served complimentary with lunch and dinner.
Sailing Cabin Charters
Enjoy the Turkish coast’s cruising ground to
the full by joining a group of other sailing enthusiasts for a week of plotting courses
and setting sails. Our Turkish sailing vessels range from 36 to 59 feet in length and are
offered on an active participant’ basis under the guidance of an experienced skipper.
With departures from Göcek and Marmaris, this is
your opportunity to sail some of the best coastline in the world with plenty of time set
aside for leisure pursuits such as snorkelling, skin diving and windsurfing.
You do not necessarily have to hold a skipper’s
licence, but we do ask that you come along to experience sailing, and as much of it as
possible!
Our yachts have a fully-equipped galley, a salon
and plenty of deck space. Accommodation is in double cabins, (triple-share is sometimes
possible) Each cabin has its own private WC and shower.
