The Famous Fethiye Olympos Cruising Program

Turkey's Mediterranean coast is famous allover the world for its natural beauty, pristine waters and wonderful sailing. Many companies in Turkey organise various Blue Cruise experiences along various legs of this Mediterranean coast. With many years experience working in Turkey's backpacking industry, combined with our personal travelling experiences around the world, we have insight and understanding into how you want to travel and the experiences you want to have while in Turkey. It is for this reason our Fethiye - Olympos (either way) Blue Cruises have become so well renowned in Turkey, and also developed a reputation amongst traveller's the world over, as one of the highlights of their Turkish experience.

Our Blue Cruise program includes all the famous sites, such as Oludeniz, Butterfly Valley, Kas, and the World Heritage Sunken City, as well as a few of our own secret sailing spots and anchorages along this breathtaking coastline.

All of our yachts - which are known as gulets in Turkey - have been made entirely by hand using wood, sourced from around the world. Onboard, accommodation comprises of private cabins, all with ensuite bathrooms and hot showers. All meals are prepared by your onboard chef, using the freshest of Turkish ingredients, while your crew will be at the helm to cruise you to the best of anchorages for the night. So all you have to do is sit back and relax with a drink and your new friends, while you witness one of the most spectacular sunsets in the Mediterranean. Ahhh…

A TRUE HIGHLIGHT OF TURKEY!


If you're a group
charter a whole boat
for cabincharter price

A complete boat can be yours, just put a group together and you are among yourself and the only one on a traditional wooden Gullet. Such a trip is also a good idea for clubs and other parties. From 10 persons onward we reserve a boat for you and suggest the best itinerary.
Gullet Special Offer


5 reasons
to charter your own boat

1.
It's just you, your family or your friends, the people you want to be with

2.
It's your own floating villa

3.
Away from the crowd, selecting your own itinerary

4.
Live like a king on a comfortable modern yacht,
with a crew eager to pamper you and your company

5.
Exclusivity: the Island, Beach or Bay, they can be yours


What to bring
Travel light is our best advice to you, swimwear and T-shirts is all you will need on board in the daytime. In the evenings people dress casually, but bring sweaters and trousers if you are coming in the cooler months. It's a good idea to bring a pair of soft shoes or sandals just to use on the boat.
On board we provide hand towels only so please bring your own bath and beach towels. All this should be packed into a soft bag which can be folded and stowed away to give more room in your cabin, not a suitcase.
The Mediterranean sun is very bright and on a boat hotter than you think, be sure to pack sunglasses, a good suntan lotion and a hat. If mosquitoes find you tasty then bring mosquito repellent and a camera is an absolute must.
