Turkey

The natural beauty and local culture of the Turkish coasts make it an ideal destination for an Eastern Mediterranean yachting holiday. Turkey’s dramatic coastline curls out from Istanbul’s Bosphorous and Black Seas, through the legendary Sea of Marmara and along its Turquoise Coast to Antalya. Her rocky coastline offers countless bays, protected harbors and spectacular scenery. Cruise along the ports of the Turquoise Coast and visit medieval castles, fishing villages, archaeological sites and lively festivals. Lose yourself in the smells and flavors of exotic bazaars and colorful markets, then head to your yacht for a dip in the blue sea and some relax. The harmony of this spiritual country will capture your heart and heal your soul.

Marmaris is a heaven for tourists, offering long golden beaches lined with palm trees as well as many beautiful restaurants, bars and hotels. Its huge Netsel marina nestles inside its almost landlocked bay lined with pine forests that reach down to the sea, making Marmaris the yachting capital of Turkey. In the old town, we recommend a tour of the Ottoman Castle, built by Suleyman the Magnificent in 1522, and some shopping and sightseeing. Marmaris is a very elegant resort and also boasts a lively and glamour nightlife.
