Bodrum: The Turquoise Coast Charter Itinerary

Bodrum: The Turquoise Coast Itinerary

Bodrum: The Turquoise Coast Yacht Charter
A two-week round trip from Bodrum along the whole of the Turquoise Coast, from the ancient ruins of Knidos to the blue lagoon of Oludeniz. This is the definitive Turkish voyage, pine-clad mountains meeting clear water, crusader castles and Lycian tombs, chic marinas and near-landlocked bays. Expect Cleopatra’s beach and sunken cities, glamorous harbours and hidden coves, a route compressed here to ten rich days.

Every route we shape is a starting point, not a fixed schedule. Stay a second day where the light is right, move with the weather, or follow a captain to a quieter cove. What follows is one considered way to read it; the rest we tailor to you.
Day 1

Bodrum

Begin in Bodrum, one of Turkey’s most popular destinations, home to a great crusader castle and a lively marina. Explore the town, then set sail west along the coast for a first swim.
