Motor yacht charter in Antalya offers an immersive introduction to the Turkish Riviera from one of its oldest and most characterful ports. Antalya old city, with its Roman harbour, Ottoman-era bazaars and cliffside fortifications, sits alongside a modern marina capable of accommodating superyachts, making it an unusual departure point that combines historical depth with efficient charter operations. Beyond the harbour walls, the Lycian coast stretches east and west through a succession of sea caves, submerged ruins, pine-covered capes and turquoise bays that define the Turkish charter experience.
The motor yacht fleet available for Antalya charters draws from Turkey pool of four vessels in this specific location, typically ranging from 25 to 50 metres and offering the speed and range to cover the coastline efficiently. Motor yachts allow guests to reach the ancient ruins of Kekova, the sunken city visible by glass-bottom tender, the beach at Patara and the narrow sea caves at Suluada in a single charter week. Crew are accustomed to Turkish coastal cruising, and most yachts carry water sports equipment suited to the warm Mediterranean conditions.
Weekly charter rates for motor yachts departing Antalya run from approximately 40,000 euros for a smaller vessel in the shoulder season to 150,000 euros for the largest options at peak July and August. The advance provisioning allowance, covering fuel, food, drinks and marina fees, adds around 30 percent.
A favourite Antalya motor yacht circuit runs west to Kemer and the Goynuk Canyon, south to Suluada and Adrasan Bay, then east past Olympos to Kas and Kekova before returning along the coast.
