GENERAL
The Blue Voyage is a sailing / motoring cruise on any stretch of the beautiful waters around Fethiye & Marmaris, where deep blue mingles with the green of the evergreen forest covered coastline.
On our comfort Gulets (wooden sailing vessel) you can enjoy the All Inclusive service provided bye the crew so you can focus on your self and relaxing.
Ancient cities such as Knidos, Kaunos, Telmessos (today Fethiye), Antiphellos (today Kas), Myra, Olympos and the rock-tombs in the Lycian cities are there for your exploration.
Everyday a new cove, a new bay to be explored. Endless natural beauty and history are enjoyed whilst cruising under the Mediterranean sun. As the Mediterranean coastline of Turkey is a treasure-chest of coves, inlets, bays and beaches, our captain can easily choose a different and private anchorage each night. For lovers of the active life, sailing in the clear waters provides great opportunities for swimming, fishing and snorkeling (please bring your own gear).
The tempered winds which generally blow from the west and northwest make the long summers ideal for the blue voyage. From some of the turquoise coast's unspoiled and sheltered bays you can see mountain peaks rising to almost 3000 meters above sea level.
