Trip Itinerary

Once you check in at our Fethiye Harbour office at 09:30 am, you’ll be greeted by your guide, who will give you a quick rundown of what to expect. At 10:30 am, we’ll hop on board the Gulet yacht and start our adventure.

Our first stop is Butterfly Valley, a natural paradise with something for everyone. Whether you want to take a dip in the cool Mediterranean Sea or go on a leisurely hike to check out the stunning flora and fauna, you’ll have a great time. Don’t forget to keep an eye out for the vibrant display of moths and butterflies that inhabit this valley—it’s a sight to behold!

After working up an appetite, we’ll return to the yacht for a delicious lunch catering to all tastes and dietary preferences.

Next up is Oludeniz (Blue Lagoon), a place with something special for everyone in the group. If you’re seeking adventure, you might want to consider paragliding from Babadag Mountain. Soaring 2,000 meters above Oludeniz Beach, the sparkling Blue Lagoon will give you an incredible adrenaline rush and memories that’ll last a lifetime. If you’re looking for a more relaxed experience, you can take in the natural beauty of the surroundings and soak in the awe-inspiring views.

As the day winds down, we’ll anchor near St. Nicholas Island, where history and nature come together. You can explore the intriguing ruins, learn about the island’s past, and capture remarkable photos. We’ll also ensure you witness the breathtaking sunset, creating a magical atmosphere for everyone to enjoy.

In the wee hours of the morning, the expert crew will navigate the Gulet along the Patara coast and set course for Hidayet Bay. After reaching the bay, you can grab breakfast and swim well before sailing towards Kas. This charming fishing village is a shopper’s paradise, with tons of handicraft stores, and boasts of an ancient theatre.

Most of our young adult guests prefer to grab in Kas town. Later in the day, we offer a cool Cooking Class on board where you can learn how to make Turkish Cheese Rolls and pancakes. You can then enjoy the delicious brunch with your fellow sailors.

As the sun sets, we will sail to one of the cosy bays between Kas and Kekova, where we will drop anchor for the night.

Our first stop today is the Sunken City of Kekova—a place where history comes alive! It was destroyed by an earthquake 2,000 years ago, and all that remains now are the ruins. Although we can’t swim or snorkel near the ruins, as they are a UNESCO World Heritage Site, we can cruise alongside and get a good look.

In the afternoon, we’ll head to Kekova Island and Simena Castle. The view from the castle is fantastic, and you can explore the island too. In the evening, we’ll stay overnight in Gokkaya Bay and visit the Smuggler’s Inn, which has a cool story behind it.

All of our vessels are traditional gulet yachts, which are constructed in Southern Turkey. These two or three-masted sailing vessels have everything you need, including ensuite cabins, a chef’s kitchen, dining areas and mattresses on the deck if you prefer to sleep under the stars.

To ensure you have enough room to move around your cabin, we recommend you bring a small to medium-sized suitcase or backpack.

Due to boat licensing laws, you are not able to bring your own alcohol on the vessel. However, well-priced drinks are available for you to purchase on board using a tab system, which needs to be paid the day you check-out.

On all of our gulet cruises, we offer a traditional Turkish breakfast, a vegetarian lunch, afternoon tea, and dinner, which are included in the price.
We offer Jain, Vegetarian, Vegan, Halal and Kosher food options on request.
You are welcome to bring extra snacks for the journey. Drinks can only be purchased on board on a tab basis, paid on the day you disembark.

Unfortunately, you are not allowed to bring your own drinks on board (including water) but you can bring your own snacks, such as peanuts, crisps, biscuits etc. 

Bar Payments: Please keep in mind that you will need to have cash available to cover any expenses at the bar during the trip. The bar payments will be settled on the final day of the journey. It is possible that there won’t be any ATMs available at the ports, so it is best to plan accordingly. However, do not worry about withdrawing cash at the outset as there are ATMs in Kas Port town that will become accessible on the second day of the journey.

Some boats have power sockets in the cabins while other vessels only have them only in the salon area. The power sockets can be used when the engine or generator is on.

Beach Towels not provided: Please be advised that we do not provide beach towels on board. We kindly request that you bring your own towels for use at the beach. While bath towels are available, they should not be used for the beach. Please note that shops selling towels are easily found in every town throughout Turkey.

Gulet boats have limited energy resources, which is why it’s recommended to limit the use of air conditioning to 4-6 hours per day. This will help conserve fuel and optimize the efficiency of the boat. It will also extend the lifespan of the generator and support eco-friendly practices by relying on natural ventilation. Running the generator at night can be quite noisy and disruptive to other passengers. Therefore, it’s important to strike a balance between guest comfort and environmental responsibility.

Here’s What The Mates Are Saying

18-39's Fethiye to Olympos, 3 Nights

We had a great time on the 4 day trip from Olympos to Fethiye. The food was unreal, scenery was even more beautiful than the photos, and we had a great group of travelers.

Would have been nice to have a little bit more communication regarding hotel pick-up in advance. Note also that the cabins are small (to be expected) and very warm. We all slept on the upper deck under the stars and it was incredible.

18-39's Fethiye to Olympos, 3 Nights

This was a fantastic experience the places visited were all stunning in there own way. The Crew were fantastic. The food on board delicious. I recommend a visit to Kas and the sunken city. Thank you to all the Crew.

18-39's Fethiye to Olympos, 3 Nights

This was truly an unforgettable experience for us! Throughout our 4-day Blue Cruise, we savored breathtaking views and were in awe of the beauty Turkey has to offer. Thanks to the professionalism of the crew and the wisdom of the guides, we made the most of every moment. The food was delicious, and the comfort of the boat made us feel right at home. A special thanks to the captain and his team; their hospitality and helpfulness were truly commendable. If you’re visiting Turkey, I highly recommend experiencing this unique adventure with Sailnstay!
