Turquoise Coast: The Ultimate Luxury Gulet Charter (Blue Cruise)

The Turquoise Coast—the famous Turkish Riviera—is globally recognized as the finest cruising ground in the Eastern Mediterranean, and the original home of the Blue Cruise (Blue Voyage). This stunning coastline, where the Aegean meets the Mediterranean, is characterized by its pristine blue waters, secluded coves, and a rich tapestry of history.

 

Gulet charters typically begin or end in vibrant port cities such as Bodrum (known for the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus and lively culture), Marmaris (the yachting capital backed by majestic mountains), and the protected, charming fishing village of Gocek. Beyond the bustling harbors, you can explore the untouched peninsulas of Gokova and Bozburun, snorkel in crystal-clear bays, and find your own piece of tranquility. Whether you choose a traditional gulet or a sleek superyacht, the Turquoise Coast guarantees an unforgettable journey blending historical sites, such as those near ancient Halicarnassus, with modern luxury and endless natural pleasure.

Started Discover the Turkish Riviera: Unforgettable Gulet Cruises on the Turquoise Coast ⚓️

The Turkish Riviera, also famously known as the Turquoise Coast, is renowned globally for its unparalleled sailing opportunities and as a premier destination for a yacht charter in Turkey. Experience the region's unmatched blend of ancient history, vibrant coastal towns, and secluded natural beauty by setting sail on a traditional Turkish Gulet or a luxury superyacht.

Bodrum: The Cosmopolitan Hub for Your Yacht Charter

As a lively port city in the southwestern corner of the peninsula, Bodrum is one of the most popular areas to start, finish, and enjoy a Turkish sailing adventure. This Aegean hotspot is filled with historical and cultural attractions, as well as numerous cosmopolitan bars, great restaurants, and stylish shopping districts.

Whether you prefer the hustle of the city or the tranquility of the open Aegean Sea, Bodrum serves as a perfect gateway to the Eastern Mediterranean summer season. While on land, an essential visit is to the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus. This ancient tomb, dating back to 353–350 BC, was declared one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The remaining ruins, intricate architecture, and extended gardens provide a stunning cultural setting before you embark on your cruise.

Marmaris: Turkey's Yachting Capital and Natural Retreats

 

Marmaris holds the title of the yachting capital of Turkey, centered on one of the world's largest ports—a vast cove backed by majestic mountain peaks. From this vibrant base, you can explore secluded paradise islands, snorkel in crystal clear waters, and navigate mysterious phosphorus caves before taking an optional trek inland.

 

For those seeking quiet anchorages, the beautiful, unspoiled peninsulas of Gokova and Bozburun lie between the lively yachting spots of Bodrum and Marmaris, bordering the Aegean and Mediterranean Seas. Here, you can immerse yourself in Turkey's rural beauty, exploring rugged coastlines, idyllic coves, and peaceful islets—the perfect places to truly switch off and enjoy the surroundings.

Gocek Bay and Expanding Your Charter Itinerary

 

Long considered one of the best sailing spots in the Mediterranean, Gocek Bay is home to four main Turkish marinas. The bustling harbor maintains the charm of a fishing village, registered as a privately protected area that remains untainted by major tourist resorts.

A Gulet cruise from this region offers an excellent opportunity to expand your charter itinerary across the full stunning Turkish Riviera and even to the magnificent nearby Greek islands. Turkey’s diverse attractions make its Turquoise Coast as beautiful as it is vibrant, ensuring pleasure and relaxation for every visitor who wanders its shores.
