Sail Through Hidden Bays, Ancient Ruins & the Heart of the Turquoise Coast
Experience the ultimate Blue Cruise adventure on this relaxing 4-day, 3-night gulet cruise around the legendary Fethiye 12 Islands. Swim in crystal-clear waters, explore ancient shipyards and Roman baths, hike through pine forests, and enjoy peaceful nights anchored in secluded bays. This route is perfect for travelers seeking comfort, nature, and history combined.
Embarkation | Swimming & Snorkeling | Historic Shipyard
You will be picked up from your hotel in Fethiye and transferred to Fethiye Harbour, where boarding begins around 15:00.
After settling into your cabin, we cruise to Turunç Bay or Tarzan Bay for your first swim and snorkeling session in turquoise waters. Relax on deck and enjoy the peaceful surroundings as the cruise continues through the islands.
Later, we sail to Tersane Island, home to the ruins of an important ancient Ottoman and Byzantine shipyard. Explore the island, swim near the ruins, and enjoy dinner on board.
Overnight on the gulet at Tersane Island.
Roman Ruins | Nature Hike | Iconic Blue Cruise Stop
After breakfast, we depart for Cleopatra’s Baths (Hamam Bay). Swim among the partially submerged ancient Roman bath ruins, said to have been built for Cleopatra herself.
Next, cruise to the beautiful Sarsala Bay, surrounded by pine forests. This bay is also the starting point for an optional 45-minute hike to the ancient city of Lissa, known for its inscribed defensive walls dating back to the 3rd century BC, during the Ptolemaic era.
In the afternoon, we continue to Bedri Rahmi Bay, named after the famous Turkish artist and one of the first “Blue Cruisers,” who painted a fish on the rocks here in 1973. Swim, snorkel, or explore the island.
Dinner and overnight on board in Bedri Rahmi Bay.
Island Hopping | Sandy Beach | Sunset Swim
Today we cruise to the enchanting Yassıca Islands, a group of tiny, unnamed islands so small they never received individual names. The largest island features a sandy beach and a shallow lagoon-like pool, perfect for swimming and relaxing.
We then continue to the tranquil Göcek Islands, where you can swim, snorkel, sunbathe, or simply enjoy the stunning coastal scenery.
In the late afternoon, enjoy a final swim at Red Island, famous for its beautiful sunset colors, before returning toward Fethiye.
Dinner and overnight on board in Fethiye Harbour or nearby bay.
