Details 
The Blue Cruise (Mavi Yolculuk) is a Turkish classic: a wooden gulet, a crew that knows every cove, and days shaped by swims, meals on deck and sunsets. This route sails from Bodrum along the Datça peninsula to the bays of Göcek — through some of the loveliest waters of the Aegean and the Mediterranean.
The boat is chartered for you alone — with family, friends or just the two of you. The captain adapts the route to the weather and to your rhythm: longer in a favourite bay, an early stop in town for ice cream, or an evening in port. The cook prepares fresh, home-style food three times a day.
Highlights include ancient Knidos, the fishing village of Selimiye, a river trip to the rock tombs of Dalyan and the 12 islands of Göcek Bay. No packing and unpacking every morning — your hotel sails with you.
Afternoon embarkation at Bodrum marina and a short sail to Karaada island with its warm springs. First dinner on deck.
Sail to the Datça peninsula and explore ancient Knidos, once home to a famous statue of Aphrodite. Overnight in the bay below the ruins.
A morning stroll through the stone lanes of Old Datça, then swims and a lazy afternoon in Palamutbükü bay.
Sail along a wild stretch of coast to the fishing village of Selimiye. Evening stroll along a waterfront lined with little restaurants.
A swim in sheltered Serçe bay, then a longer sail along the coast to green, pine-fringed Ekincik.
By river boat to Dalyan: Lycian rock-cut tombs, a mud bath and İztuzu Beach, where loggerhead turtles nest.
A final day among the islands of Göcek Bay: Cleopatra's Baths, Bedri Rahmi cove and the captain's farewell dinner.
Breakfast on board, disembarkation and transfer to Dalaman airport (about 25 minutes).

“Seven days barefoot, with swims three times a day. Our best nights were spent on mattresses on deck, under the stars. Dalyan and Cleopatra's Baths are a must!”
“We chartered the gulet for 10 people, two families with kids — the best holiday of our lives. Captain Ahmet knew bays where we were completely alone, and the cook surprised us with something new every day.”
Rarely — the gulet mostly sails in sheltered bays, and longer stretches are done in the morning when the sea is calmer. It's still worth packing travel-sickness tablets just in case.
Yes — it's a private charter, so we plan the route with you. Popular alternatives are Göcek – Fethiye – Kekova or a loop from Bodrum around the Gulf of Gökova.
The cook will prepare meals to suit your diet — just let us know when you book. Turkish cuisine is full of vegetable dishes, so nobody leaves the table hungry.
