Turkey luxury yacht charter

For charterers wishing to expand their horizons towards the eastern Mediterranean, a luxury yacht charter in Turkey offers a bounty of ancient historical sights, spectacular anchorages and a taste of the exotic. Revel in a cultural melting pot in Istanbul, the meeting point of the Aegean, Marmara and Black Seas or enjoy the piercing-blue bays and blonde sands of the Turkish Turquoise Coast in dreamy locations like Bodrum, Marmaris and Fethiye, just a stone's throw from Greek island chains such as the Dodecanese. With a longer, warmer cruising season and fewer crowds, Turkey is the ultimate East meets West charter destination.

Turkey yacht season and weather

The charter season in Turkey runs from late April to October, with shoulder season months of April, May and October still enjoying warm, sunny weather and blissfully quiet cruising grounds.

Summer temperatures average between 26°C and 30°C but can soar well above 30°C during the peak months of July and August. Sea temperatures remain above 20°C from May to November, peaking at 26°C, making it a haven for watersports, snorkelling and scuba diving.

Turkey yacht charter itineraries

Yachts usually depart from Göcek, Bodrum or Marmaris. Göcek has multiple marinas with Skopea Marina accommodating yachts up 110 metres and D Marin Göcek accommodating craft up to 70 metres. Netsel Marmaris Marina has moorings for yachts up to 90 metres. Milta Bodrum Marina has moorings for yachts up to 100 metres.

Cruise 15 nautical miles from bustling Marmaris to the serenity of the Ekincik nature reserve, where clear cyan waters are backed by vertiginous slopes for a tranquil first stop. Take the tender up the Dalyan Çayı River to see the extraordinary Lycian tombs, the mud baths and the ancient ruins at Kaunos before cruising 25 nautical miles to one of Turkey’s most picturesque anchorages at Tersane Island.

A short hop from Tersane, the neighbouring bays around the chic harbour of Göcek offer plentiful heavenly spots to drop the anchor. Charter yachts can moor in Göcek or overnight in the hidden paradise of Yassica Adalari, a necklace of emerald islands that lie off the glittering Göcek coast.

Cove hop around Yassica Adalari before making the 10 nautical mile trip to the traditional town of Fethiye, where the ruins of the ancient city of Telmessos await. Fethiye’s Ece Marina can accommodate yachts up to 60 metres. The famous sapphire lagoon of Olu Deniz lies 15 nautical miles south and is framed by vertiginous mountains. The trendy, bougainvillaea-clad fishing harbour of Kalkan and historic Kas lie further south.

Alternatively, culture lovers may want to begin in the north at Kuşadası Setur Marina (moorings up to 90 metres), where Ephesus and the Temple of Artemis, one of the seven wonders of the world are both nearby. From there, make the 100 nautical mile overnight passage to Didim’s long sandy beaches and the nearby ruins of the Temple of Apollo. D Marin Didim offers berths up to 70 metres.

For a change of pace, the upmarket town of Türkbükü, synonymous with Turkish elite and celebrities, lies 20 nautical miles across the azure gulf. There is no dockage in the town so you can either anchor out or you can leave your yacht at the nearby Yalikavak Marina (moorings up to 140 metres). Departing Türkbükü, charterers can explore the Turkish Riviera, cruising 30 nautical miles to fun-filled Bodrum and on to the secluded coves of Datça, the Greek island of Symi, and the dive sites and cruising havens of Fethiye, Göcek and Olu Deniz.

Getting to Turkey

Commercial airlines and private jets operate from Izmir, Antalya, Dalaman and Milas-Bodrum airports. Göcek is a 25-minute drive from Dalaman airport.

Charters may use Turkey as a jumping-off point to explore the Dodecanese and the south-eastern Aegean.

Legal requirements

When arriving in or leaving Turkey, yachts must report to an official port of entry. These include Bodrum, Marmaris, Datca, Fethiye and Kas. 

Yachts entering Turkish waters for the first time must also fly a Q flag and a Turkish courtesy flag.

Go diving to Black Island and explore 3 wrecks teeming with marine life or enjoy watersports off the superyacht. Shop in the Palmarina shopping mall in nearby Yalikivak for locally designed one-off items of clothes and jewellery. Watch your carpet being handmade at Etrim village. Finally, relax on the beach or in the spa of the Mandarin Oriental before cruising to your next destination with your superyacht.

Enjoy the morning in Sogutkoy, an anchorage of calm clear waters for water-skiers, paddleboarders and kayakers. Sunbathe on the top deck of your superyacht, then take the tender to the nearby beaches. After lunch, the motor or sailing boat will cruise to vibrant Marmaris. This town doesn't just boast a pretty harbour, but is also crowned by a castle. Haggle with vendors over apple tea for hand-loomed rugs, custom-made leather coats or hand-painted pottery. Party in Bar Street or find more tranquil waterfront bar-restaurants lining Barbaros Caddesi and the marina.

Dalyan River

There are fabulous views over the surrounding countryside.

Gemiler Island

Explore the colourful small island of Meis just opposite the town. Go wreck diving just offshore or directly off your superyacht. Take a trip to the ancient and mysterious sunken city of Kekova visible below the water. Have cocktails on the waterfront before trying a popular local restaurant like Kosk or Natur-el for dinner.

Stunning Sunset

Kalkan is a harbourside town built round a horseshoe bay. Wander the maze of streets, browsing the many boutiques for souvenirs. Visit 18km long Patara beach, home to Loggerhead turtles, which have been laying their eggs here for the past 40 million years. Head inland and visit secluded mountain villages. Go canoeing on the nearby Dalaman river or horse riding in the surrounding hills. Head to Villa Mahal at cocktail hour for the best view of the sunset. Dine in a rooftop restaurant in town before returning to your motor or sailing boat.

Sweeping Bay

Have a leisurely breakfast and relax on the sundeck as the superyacht cruises to Gocek. Admire the beautiful coastline and take a few last photographs of your holiday before disembarking the yacht for your onward journey.

Best Time to Charter in Turkey

The charter season in Turkey runs from mid-April through October. Like most of the Mediterranean, July and August are peak months. Turkey is known for its long, dry summers. During the yacht charter season, there is little rain, low humidity, and temperatures hovering into the mid-80s during the peak months.

How Much Does It Cost to Charter a Yacht in Turkey

Costs for crewed charters in Turkey vary widely, based on the size of the yacht and the time of your charter. There is no VAT tax in Turkey, which reduces costs on yacht charters. Typically, luxury charters range in price from €30,000 to €1,000,000 per week, plus advanced provisioning allowance. Prices are highest during July and August, and fall slightly during the shoulder season.

What Is a Turkish Gulet

A classic Turkish gulet is a wooden wide-decked sailing vessel, traditionally built for fie woods like teak, maun or iroko. A gulet is a motor sailing yacht, built for so-called “Blue Cruises” from Bodrum to Antalya.

In general, Turkish gulets range in length from 15 to 55 meters, and they offer accommodations for 6 to 20 guests. These yachts typically have schooner or ketch rigging, and have rounded sterns, which offer an abundance of deck space for soaking in the sun.

Top Destinations on Turkey Yacht Charters

The so-called “Blue Cruise” route in Turkey includes the best destinations along the country’s sparkling coastline. Some top destinations include:

• Bodrum – Rich in history, Bodrum is one of the most desirable destinations in the Eastern Mediterranean. Soak up the sun at Bodrum’s idyllic beach clubs during the day, and dance the night away in the city’s legendary clubs at night. You’ll find it all here: Fine dining, shopping, museums and plenty of entertainment.
• Gocek – A rustic Old World beach town, Gocek is known for its historic city center, rich cultural attractions, and well-preserved landmarks. Enjoy a walking tour of the city’s historic center, before a day on at one of the area’s secluded beaches. The Blue Lagoon of Olu Deniz is nearby, as is Gocek Island Beach.
• Fethiye – In Fethiye, modern amenities meet ancient history. Long an important sailing hub, Fethiye is known for its beautiful marina, which beckons superyachts from around the Mediterranean, as well as the ancient Lycian tombs and its historic fortified old city.
• Antalya – Antalya is set along the Turkish Riviera, and here you’ll find more than 400 miles of idyllic coastline to explore. Nearby, the World Heritage Site Xanthos – the ancient Greek city – is worthy of a shoreside excursion.

A bridge between east and west, it is genuinely laden with natural and man-made treasures waiting for you to find them. Bodrum is one of the most popular yachting hubs on the western shore on Turkey yacht charters. Boasting a cosmopolitan character with a trendy bohemian vibe, its nightlife now gives St. Tropez and Ibiza a run for their money. Added to this is its strategic coastal position and Bodrum is the ideal place to begin or end a yacht rental.

Discovering the Verdant South and East

Cruising south and east along this profoundly indented coastline, the landscape is more and more verdant the further you go. You’ll be in awe- as the towering Taurus Mountains rise behind the bays and pine-forest inlets crowd down to the shoreline, providing perfect sheltered anchorages. East of Göcek, the striking Turquoise Coast will enchant you on your Turkey yacht rental. From the stunning lagoon of Ölü Deniz (closed to yachts but accessible by kayak) to the twelve islands with their bays and inlets, the whole coast is dotted with gem-like anchorages and sleepy villages. But it’s not all peaceful; the bustling ports of Fethiye, Kalkan and Kas have plenty of bars and restaurants with something for every taste.

A Magical Destination for a Superyacht

Promising more history, culture and scenic anchorages than any yachtsman could hope for, the Turquoise Coast is a magical destination for a superyacht charter.

Turkey Yacht Charters & Gulets

Turkey is a spectacular luxury yacht charter destination, with more coastline than any other country in the Mediterranean , where even those with the highest expectations will not be disappointed. The country has become one of the most important yachting destinations and is one of the most sought after charter holiday areas in the Eastern Mediterranean . A well planned Turkey yacht charter vacation is sure to allow you to get away from it all and get immersed in this beautiful natural environment the Mediterranean has to offer.

By far the most dramatic way to explore this stretch of coastline is by sailing through the pristine turquoise water aboard a traditional turkish charter gulet. One of the most photographed beaches in the Med is Oludeniz or Blue Lagoon, known for its calm, crystal-clear waters, ideal for swimming, water-sports and among the best places in the world to paraglide. The Sunken City of Kekova is a protected Lycian-Roman archeological site also well worth a visit while on your yacht in Turkey.

Another interesting and historically important location to add to your charter itinerary is the ruins of the ancient city Caunos from 3000BC, easily accessible and well worth exploring. Shopping for souvenirs is best done in Fethiye, where you should also try the traditional Turkish Bath, followed by an hour long massage before returning aboard your luxury yacht. For a little more action, visit Marmaris, a busy town bustling with activity, shops, markets and nightlife; or Bodrum, with many good bars, restaurants and some of the best open-air nightclubs in the Eastern Mediterranean.

The Turkish coastline tends to have more trees than the rest of the Mediterranean yacht charter areas, and you might come across a few waterfalls. Along the coasts of the Aegean and Mediterranean, you'll sail within turquoise waters and sheltered bays that were once touched by the Carians, Lycians, Greeks, Romans and Byzantines. You can also sail upon ancientruins an archaeological sites including Greek cities, sunken Roman harbours and crusader castles. It's no surprise that Turkey is such a wealth of culture, history and intrigue.

The cuisine in Turkey can be described as a mixture of Asia and Europe. In addition to the traditional shish kebabs and raki, there is a huge selection of amazingly fresh vegetables and good wine available, along with other provisions in the marinas. The largest base in Turkey is Bodrum which boasts the magnificent Knights of Rhodes fortress.

You can choose to drop anchor in the crystal clear cove of Tersane and spend your day snorkelling in the pleasant waters; Meander your way through the marble street of ancient Ephesus; Visit Kizilkuyruk Koyu with its famous beaches and magnificent sunsets; Sail to Ekinçik with its stunning red cliffs and steep wooded slopes; Visit the ruins of ancient Caunos; Soak in the sunken Turkish baths of Cleopatra at Haman, or simply, enjoy the culinary delights and lively dining at a colourful seaside cafe.

There is so much that makes Turkey a delightful location. The popularity of Turkey as a sailing destination lies as much in the fantastic Mediterranean climate as it does with the undeniable charm of its shores.

Gulet Yacht Charters in Turkey

Why choose a Turkey luxury gulet charter? Who does a Turkey luxury gulet charter appeal to?

The Turkey luxury charter grounds are an alluring choice for gulet yacht charters in the Eastern Mediterranean: They can be an extension of a Greece cruise through the Cyclades or Dodecanese Islands, or treated entirely as its own adventure along the Turkish Riviera, romantically nicknamed the Turquoise Coast. It lives up to its name with brilliant blue waters as transparent as glass and white sands powdery fine, bathed in sunshine and warmth throughout the year which lets you charter any season you desire.

Gulets are traditionally wooden-hulled vessels built in Turkey and are a great way to make that first connection with local culture through a living legacy. They offer exceptional value for money per accommodated guest and give a fantastic balance between activities and leisure. Time will fly by as you spend hours underwater surrounded by stunning wrecks and colourful fish, and dedicate days to exploration among ruins and winding city streets where galleries, museums and shopping opportunities abound. Each evening can end by anchoring in a quiet bay where the group can party on board or go ashore for beach games and sunset dinners with your feet in the sand.

The range of water toys available has increased with the popularity of luxury yachting, and jet skis, Seabobs, kite surfing equipment, kayaks, paddleboards, fishing gear, snorkelling equipment, Scuba diving equipment and inflatable & towable toys are all possible amongst each individual collection. Best of all, you'll be served by a professional crew who are dedicated to giving you first class service throughout the charter, including an expert chef that has the expertise to create delectable meals while meeting all dietary requirements within the group. As such, Turkish gulet yacht charters are popular for honeymoons, anniversaries, corporate event charters, religious celebrations and New Year.

Bodrum, Marmaris, Gocek and Antalya are popular stops in a Turkey itinerary, passing by such sights as the Lycian Tombs and other ancient wonders along the way.

What kinds of gulet are available?

There is an extensive range of luxury gulets concentrated mostly around Turkey and the Eastern Mediterranean charter grounds, but also available across the Mediterranean and beyond. Guests can select from classic sailing yachts that strive to retain their original appearance right down to the rigging and engineering, to state-of-the-art builds launched only this year. This latter category might cater to the latest trends while offering anything from a completely modern appearance to a truly traditional facade.

Below are two examples of luxury gulets that have previously been available for charter; view the latest Turkish gulet listings here.

Sailing yacht RIANA is a more traditional gulet but far from a 'classic' in age: Built in 2007, she has been impeccably maintained by her Owner to ensure that she is always looking her best with cutting-edge technology making life on board effortless behind the scenes. Rich dark panelling and pale cream furnishings accented with powder blue make for a timeless and memorable environment to host a lavish special occasion indoors or outside.

Luxury yacht NAVILUX is an example of a contemporary gulet that has treated charter guests to amenities more often associated with motor yachts, such as a Jacuzzi, light-filled contemporary interiors and en-suite guest cabins that each have a famous film star as their theme. This is all with the benefits a classic gulet brings: a large interior salon and dining area, and spacious outdoor dining and sun bathing areas that let guests connect with the environment.

How much does it cost for a Turkish gulet charter?

The cost of a luxury gulet charter depends on the size of the vessel, amenities on board, fuel, food & beverages - which are usually covered in an Advanced Provision Allowance (APA) - and of course the length of the charter, which is typically at least seven days. The variety within the fleet covers a wide range of budgets and there are some that provide excellent value for money when considering that a gulet provides accommodation, transport, meals, entertainment and dedicated first-class service all in a single package.

Why choose CharterWorld? Since 2003 CharterWorld has been providing clients the world over with exceptional quality luxury yachts and crews to ensure that holiday dreams are made reality.

CharterWorld is a Corporate Member of MYBA – Worldwide Yachting Association and several brokers are members of the Charter Yacht Brokers Association (CYBA), held to the highest standards of ethical and technical performance.

Here are some of the Hotspots to see on Your Turkish Yacht Charter:

Bodrum is an idyllic beach resort during the day and a pulsating entertainment hub by night. It  is an important and sought after destination in the Eastern Mediterranean that is a distinctively Turkish  tourist centre renowned for its rich cultural history. On crewed luxury yacht charter vacation in here there is a combination of ancient charm with some important modern trappings where superyachts and charter boats have opportunity to enjoy the best of both worlds. Bodrum is set on a perfect spot on the picturesque peninsula and features an old castle that was built during the 15th century, diverse array of boutiques and shops and fine restaurants and effervescent nightlife….more about Bodrum yacht charters .

• Çesme

Cesme is known as a pleasant and popular beach and sun resort that serves ferries and sailors who are exploring the Greek island of Chios as well as those who are coming from mainland Turkey. Cesme is an enchanting mix of pristine beaches, warm and sunny climate, azure waters and soothing mineral springs. It boasts of pristine bays, fine restaurants, perfect accommodations, diverse shopping opportunities and an assortment of entertainment options and sports activities….more about Cesme yacht charter .

Fethiye is one of the more popular holiday destinations in Turkey that is regularly visited by a significant number of luxury crewed charter yachts and superyachts. This popular and idyllic holiday resort lies some 135 kilometres off the south-western section of Marmaris within the province of Mugla. It is famous for its near-perfect and busy marina. Known in ancient times as Telmessos, it features an impressive fortification which is set on the hill that straddles the old city. Aside from its magnificent marina, Fethiye is popular for its ancient rock tombs of Lycians. These rock formations have been carefully and elaborately carved on the cliffs and one of the more popular rock tombs is the Amnytas tomb, which is one of the oldest and dates back to the 4th century. Fethiye is also famous for other “old” attractions such as the Fethiye tower, the ancient theatre and a significant number of sarcophagi….more about Fethiye yacht charter .

Just like in Fethiye and Marmaris, a typical holiday in the rustic town of Gocek is a journey to the storied past of Turkey. What is most notable about Goc

ek is its strict adherence to rigid development and construction regulations that are geared towards the protection of the city’s rich cultural heritage and tradition. Despite being a mainstream tourist centre in the region, the main attractions of this popular yacht holiday destination are its archaeological structures and historical landmarks, which is well-preserved and protected…more about Gocek yacht charter .

Marmaris was once just a cute little fishing port, like many others in Turkey, but it has grown considerably over the last 20 years. It is now a popular and thriving coastal town which attracts many luxury Marmaris vacations. On shore, the quay is graced with several worthwhile rustic local restaurants and bars which create an ambiance for relaxing during the warm Mediterranean evenings. For those charter guests who are interested, there are also the bustling bazaars in the old quarter of town to visit…more about Marmaris yacht charters .  

The Mediterranean enjoys 315 cloudless days per year and Turkey has even more. During the peak of charter season, between April and October, the skies are blue and the waters are warm. In midsummer, charter guests enjoy glorious sunsets and long evenings, under gentle winds and still seas. With stunning coastline, dotted with hundreds of coves and bays, and an endless myriad of history and culture to explore, Turkey has an undeniable charm and intrigue.

All the main types of yacht charter boats are available in Turkey including Turkish gullets , motor and sailing yachts, skippered and crewed yachts, catamaran, sailboat, luxury yachts and even the occasional super yacht charter.

Charter your own yacht and come to sample some of the delights of Turkey and the wonderful Turkish coast.

Amanda, Not as unplugged (phones) as I would like, but we are having a great trip. The boat is wonderful, the crew absolutely terrific, the food sensational--although we are at risk of gaining many pounds. Your colleagues on the ground in Bodrum were terrific too. Thanks for everything. Gulet ATALANTE / June / Turkey

Guide to Turkey

Asian mystery fuses with European flair in the birthplace of great civilisations

From slender minarets and ancient domes that punctuate the endless violet sky to fertile plains planted with cotton, grapes, and olives, Turkey is a country that warmly embraces its east-meets-west origins. Walk the steps of the Silk Road Traders, Julius Caesar, and Alexander the Great to discover ancient ruins, dazzling harbours, and vibrant cities alive with energetic street life.

The cruising grounds of Turkey’s southern coastline, known as The Turquoise Coast, are a justifiably popular Mediterranean yacht charter destination. Dramatic and diverse, its hidden coves, rustic villages, and picturesque settings combine with modern luxury in the regions hottest boutique hotels that are scattered along the coast. Lapped by warm, transparent waters that play host to abundant marine life, it is also the perfect place to explore beneath the waterline.

Istanbul, the vivacious capital, is quintessentially Eastern and bursting with Byzantine treasures. Specifically, it is home to many glittering mosques, ruched velvet night-spots, smart hotels, and beautiful vistas. Visitors are able to plunge into bazaars redolent with rich spices and explore the spectacular Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace, and breath-taking frescoes of the Chora Museum.

Beyond the beach, the old quarter of Kaleici captivates locals and visitors alike, while in a nearby Roman amphitheatre during June and July the Aspendos Opera and Ballet Festival get underway. Along the coast, Bodrum beckons with its whitewashed houses and riot of bougainvillea, the city’s twin bays making it a magnet for yachtsmen, while history aficionados will find Roman Ephesus a revelation.

The lively resort town of  Marmaris  is known as Turkey’s yachting capital and rests on one of the world’s largest harbours, a sweeping bay backed by majestic mountain peaks. Discover its secluded paradise islands, snorkel in the clear waters, and explore mysterious phosphorus caves before heading into the jungle for and off-road trek.

Long considered one of the best sailing spots in the Mediterranean, the Gulf of Gocek is home to four of the main Turkish marinas. The bustling port is a registered area of special protection and, as such, has remained a charming fishing village without being tarnished by tourist resorts. Turkey’s intoxicating allure and varied attractions make it as beautiful as it is vibrant, ensuring pleasure and relaxation wherever visitors find themselves roaming.

Sailing in Turkey - Geography

Turkey, the size of France and Germany together, is located between Europe, Asia and the Middle East. It’s coastline runs 5,176 miles (8,330 km) with the Black Sea to the north, the Aegean Sea to the west and the Mediterranean to the west, plus the Bosphorus, connecting the Black Sea and the Sea of Marmara. The capital of Turkey, Istanbul (or known as Constantinople before), located right on the spot – dividing or connecting Europe and Asia, is a true wealth of the Byzantine Christian and Muslim (Ottoman) Turkish heritage. It is a delightful conglomerate of numerous tourist attraction: mosques and churches, palaces and castles, Turkish bathes and bazaars. Istanbul is a pure reflection of fast-changing nation. Contrasts between old and new, high-rise modernisation and lack of adequate essentials are merely shocking. But surprisingly this striking feature enchants even more travellers to this region. Origins of the Turks The Turkish people are descendants from the tribes of Central Asian nomads or the Turkmen.

The history of Turkey is as long as that of mankind. Known as Anatolia, or as Asia Minor before, this land has seen so many ups and downs of many great civilisations ( the Persians, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines an Ottomans) that it is hard to squeeze it in any narration. In the middle of the 11th century, the tribe invaded Persia, and when Baghdad fell in 1055, the powerful Great Seljuk Sultanate was declared as the centre of the Islamic world. But in 1243 it was defeated by the Mongols. During 13 and 14th centuries many Christians converted to Islam, because the Mongols offered reduced taxation for Muslims. The Mongols ruled Anatolia till 1335, then Osman founded a dynasty known as the Ottomans and created one of the most powerful empires. By the mid of 1500s, the Ottoman sultan was the central figure of Muslim world. In the 1870s, reformist movement known as the Young Ottomans began to push for a constitutional monarchy. In 1912 and 1913 the empire lost most of its remaining European possessions in the Balkan War. By 1918 only the heartland of Anatolia remained of the Ottoman Empire. In 1923 the Turkish Republic was proclaimed with the First Constitution implemented. During World War II, Turkey pursued peaceful policy and remained neutral.

Most of Turkey’s population (76 million people) follows Islam. The most devoted pray 5 times a day in mosques, while some Turkish do not go to mosques at all. Approximately 130,000 are non-Muslims, including Greek and Armenian Orthodox.

The Turkish language uses the Latin alphabet. But their greatly animated body language can deliver as much a message as a speech itself. The traditional segregation of the sexes is very noticeable. You may often come across groups of men sitting around smoking, drinking endless cups of tea, playing cards or dominos. Numerous festivals, where food and drinks play a central role, demonstrate sincere hospitality and generosity. The age-old Turkish traditions demand absolute respect of elders and cherish their children as national treasures.

The outcome of this country’s long and sometimes violent past reflects itself in its art and architecture and also alters or introduces its traditions and customs. Many peoples, among them Jews, Russians, Armenians, Greek and others have played an important part in Turkey ‘s complex history. It can be seen in mosaics and frescoes, colourful tile work, city walls, fortress and biblical sights.

Customs and traditions.

The Turkish customs, passed from generation to generation, are well-preserved in contemporary life. The Islamic tradition to circumcise boys from the ages of seven and ten is a very lavish occasion. All men over the age of 20 are required to serve in the military forces, which is considered to be a crucial step to manhood. Wedding festivities, which take a lot of preparations of cooking, dressing and dancing are one of the most impressive rituals. Traditional dress as a colourful designed costume, always goes with decorative scarves (both for men and women), dyed with a plant extracts. The traditional crafts are mostly man-made: copper and brass ware; woodwork; hand-printed textiles; quilts, etc. For example, needle lace is an intricate floral design crocheted in silk.

Turkey is a large territory for variety of landscapes and geographical diversity: seascapes, soft beaches and rolling mountains along the Mediterranean coast and deep lush forests of the Black Sea, with vast bare areas in the eastern part. About one quarter of Turkey is covered with forest: pine, spruce and cedar, as well as deciduous trees. 80 % of the country is in active tectonic zone, and earthquakes are frequent. Cappadocia is a must see geological miracle. The hardened volcanic ash (the tuff) was weathered away, creating some majestic formations. Earlier in age even cities were constructed underground, because the softness of the tuff made it easy to build different dwellings underground.

Flora and Fauna

Turkey can surprise any naturalist with abundance of bird life (more than 440 species), larger mammals and diversity of plants. Some of this unspoiled countryside zones are declared as national parks. Each area presents different flora and fauna. The forests of the eastern provinces are habitat for bears, wolves or jackals. The Mediterranean coast grows roses, orchids, lilies, daffodils, etc. Wetlands are famous for water lilies and irises; while woodlands – peonies and jasmine.

Various range of mountains and coastal line of seaside correspondently influence climatic regions in Turkey. The Aegean and the Mediterranean will produce 84F (29C) in July and 48F (9C) in January. Winter is mostly a rainy season here. Annual precipitation in Antalya is 39 in, while the rainfall along the Black Sea is much heavier – 96 inches a year. The northeast has warm summers, but colder winters with temperatures of 16F (-9C). The central plateau has hot dry summers of 73F (23C) and chilly moist winters of 32F (0 C). The coastline of Turkey predictably delivers warm summers and mild winters, with mostly sunny days throughout the year. From May till the end of August it may be windy, but it never reaches its 25 Knots Mark. When going east the winds become weaker, thus more comfortable for sailing.

All national and regional holidays can be divided into 3 categories: Religious feasts celebrated by the Islamic people; festivities associated with events or people of historic significance; traditional festivals, usually tied with a seasonal theme. Turkey has four distinct seasons and different types of celebrations are spread accordingly. In spring there are Tulip Festival in April, Yunus Emre Culture and Art week in May, and Marmaris Race week or International Yachting Festival the 2nd week of May. In summer because of the high temperatures, there is nothing better than to be closer to the seaside. International swimming race is held near the Greek island of Meis. Kirkpinar Festival and Grease wrestling Championship is usually in the last week of June. Istanbul Music Festival is a well known event for opera, theatre and ballet lovers. Autumn is a harvesting season, no wonder there are so many festivals based on the crops: watermelon, grapes, etc. The still warm sea welcomes water sports enthusiasts. International Bodrum Cup Regatta is held in the third week of October, and limited only to few categories of wooden yachts. Race week (last week of October to first of Nov.) takes place in Marmaris and is supervised by the Turkish Sailing Federation. Second week of September will attract dance couples to six-day Tango Festival, also held in Marmaris. In winter the local museums and art galleries will give you a shelter from rain and snow. Although Christmas is ignored by the Turks, New Year’s Day is widely celebrated throughout Turkey. In the mid of January, it is worth visiting the ruined Roman theatre of Ephesus, where the Camel Wrestling Championship is held.

Conveniently surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea in the south, the Aegean Sea in the west and the Black Sea up north, it is no wonder that water sports, and especially sailing, are prevailing in this area. Besides, Turkey provides the longest sailing season in the Mediterranean. There are indeed a lot of advantages for sailors in this area. Secluded sandy bays and coves, lush forested hills, ruins of ancient dwellings – sometimes are hidden from explorers and can be discovered only by water. So, “12 Knots” will give you the opportunity to enjoy this paradise with bareboat or skippered yacht charter. Once you reach your destination - sunny weather, pristine beaches, balsamic waters – will create the most relaxing atmosphere for you. Turkey provides not only its picturesque scenery, but also upscale marinas, well- equipped with secure moorings and other useful facilities for yachts. They are well-located to make it easy to get provisions or meals at the restaurants.

One of the main yacht centres, located on the Bodrum peninsula, is a perfect spot for sailing or dinghy racing. The 15 century Castle, well visible from the harbour, houses a Museum of Underwater Archeology these days. Yalikavak, used to be a sponge-fishing port, is a good place to try local delicacies: sea beans and stuffed marrow flowers.

Marmaris, which used to be a quaint fishing village, set in a sheltered bay, is now a vibrant resort and can be easily compared to the Spanish Ibiza. Marmaris is another popular sailing and diving centre with Netsel Marina, as Turkey ‘s largest and most luxurious marinas, and several smaller ones as well. There is berthing for over 750 yachts up to 130 ft (40m) long. Marmaris is a safe anchorage with no underwater currents, sandbanks or rocks.

On the way from Bodrum to Marmaris you’ll come across Gocek, a small village with 5 well- equipped marinas. The public marinas have berth for above 350 boats with a further 200 berth available in a secluded private marina. The ruins of the Roman town of Lydae, with two mausoleums and a fort, can be visible at the tip of the peninsula.
