Sailing itineraries

Fethiye Samanlik Boncuklu
Your journey begins at the Fethiye office at 2:00 PM, where your crew will welcome you aboard your... see+ traditional Turkish gulet. After a relaxed check-in and a brief orientation, we’ll depart from the port of Fethiye at 2:30 PM to begin your coastal voyage along Turkey’s iconic Turquoise Coast.
Our first stop is Samanlik Bay or Red Island (Kizilada)—a peaceful cove perfect for your first swim. The water is clear and calm during the shoulder seasons, offering a refreshing introduction to life at sea. Take a dip, enjoy the serenity, or settle in comfortably on the deck as the gulet settles into its rhythm.
Later, we sail to Boncuklu Bay or Tarzan Bay, where we drop anchor for the night. These sheltered bays are ideal for off-season sailing—calm, picturesque, and bathed in soft hues as the sun begins to set. Enjoy your first evening with a freshly prepared dinner under the stars, sharing the deck with travelers of all ages who are here for the same reason: to relax, explore, and enjoy the coast at a slower pace.
Atmosphere: peaceful sailing, soft light, tranquil coves, and the perfect gentle start to your week.
Pro tip: as the sun sets behind Île Rouge, the water reflects shades of copper and pink—it’s one of the most underrated sunsets on the coast.

Boncuklu Butterfly Valley Blue Lagoon St Nicholas
Wake up to the gentle rocking of the sea and the morning sun casting a warm glow on the cliffs. We... see+ set sail early for the Valley of the Butterflies, one of Turkey’s most breathtaking natural wonders—a hidden canyon framed by towering limestone cliffs.
Breakfast is served on the deck in the Valley of the Butterflies, with the sound of waves lapping against the gulet and views of waterfalls cascading down the cliffs. After breakfast, enjoy a refreshing swim or a short walk ashore to the beach for photos before continuing our journey.
By late morning, we’ll sail into the calm waters of the Blue Lagoon (Ölüdeniz), one of the Mediterranean’s most iconic bays. Swim, paddleboard, or relax on the deck as the mountains rise all around you. For those seeking a touch of adventure, an optional paragliding flight from Mount Babadag offers unforgettable panoramic views of the lagoon and coastline.
In the afternoon, we drop anchor at St. Nicholas Island, a peaceful isle dotted with ancient Byzantine ruins and wild olive trees. Stroll along the island’s trails, visit the historic chapel, or enjoy a spectacular sunset from the hilltop—a point of interest on the Lycian coast.

Here you’ll have time to explore at your own pace—stroll through the cobblestone streets, browse the artisanal shops, or enjoy a Turkish coffee overlooking the marina. For those seeking a gentle adventure, optional scuba diving is available; Kas is widely recognized as Turkey’s diving capital, offering clear visibility and colorful marine life.
After lunch on board, we continue to the island of Kekova, home to the ancient sunken city. Once part of the Lycian civilization, its submerged walls, staircases, and foundations are still visible underwater. Swimming is not permitted here to preserve the site, but the view from the deck is unforgettable.
In the afternoon, we visit the picturesque village of Simena, a hilltop settlement crowned by Simena Castle. A short walk to the summit rewards you with panoramic views of the turquoise bays and scattered islets on the horizon.
