8 Days Fethiye – Kekova – Fethiye Blue Cruise

Gulet Cruise to the Legendary Sunken City of Kekova

Sail along Turkey’s spectacular Mediterranean coastline on this unforgettable 8-day Blue Cruise from Fethiye to Kekova and back. Swim in crystal-clear turquoise waters, explore ancient Lycian ruins, visit charming harbor towns, and discover the legendary Sunken City of Kekova — all while relaxing on board a traditional Turkish gulet.

This cruise is ideal for travelers seeking peaceful bays, cultural heritage, and slow-paced luxury at sea.
