DAY 1: En Route
Depart the U.S.A. on your flight to Turkey.
DAY 2: Arrive Istanbul - Bodrum
Meet our guide and transfer and board your yacht in Bodrum Harbor. Cruise to Karaada
(Black Island) for an afternoon of swimming and water sports
or stay in Bodrum Harbor for the night. If yours is the
latter choice, explore Bodrum Castle, built by the Knights
of St. John during the Crusades and now home to the fabulous
Museum of Underwater Archaeology. Bodrum is famous for its
nightlife, so dine out in style, stroll through the bazaar,
visit a caf? or dance until dawn.
DAY 3: Yedi Adalari
Swim and sunbathe in the morning before taking a relaxing
sail across to the Yedi Adalari (Seven Islands). Spend the
afternoon enjoying the scenery or try water-skiing,
windsurfing and snorkeling in crystal-clear waters. Dine "al
fresco" aboard the yacht tonight. DAY 4: Longoz - Degirmen
Buku; Sail to Longoz, a quiet little inlet surrounded
by pine forest. Meet the friendly locals during a walk
ashore. After lunch, sail into Degirmen Buku and drop anchor
in "English Harbor", so-named as British torpedo boats used
the inlet as their base during the Second World War. Tonight
dine ashore in a small restaurant on the eastern side of
Degirmen Buku.
DAY 5: Sehir Adalari - Cleopatra's Beach - Karacasogut
Sailing further down the gulf, stop to
explore the three islands known as the "Sehir Adalari"
(Island City). In ancient times, the settlement on the
largest of the islands was known as Cedreae and the
fortification walls of the city can still be seen. Among the
ruins that are found scattered among the olive groves, are a
small theatre, an Apollo temple and a necropolis. On the
western side of this island is a beach known as "Cleopatra's
Beach", the sand of which was reputedly shipped across from
Africa on Cleopatra's orders. Move on to Karacasogut Limani
(Willow Harbor) for the night. Dine on fresh fish in the
quaint restaurant ashore.
DAY 6: Kufre
A morning of leisurely cruising, making our way back along the coast and
into the idyllic anchorage of Kufre. Swim and snorkel here
or take a walk ashore through dense pine forest and seek out
the fragrant amber tree. This tree, also known as styrax, is
found in only a few places in the eastern Mediterranean -
and indeed the world.
DAY 7: Cokertme
Sail across to Cokertme on the northern side of the Gulf of Gokova. This is
a large, sheltered bay backed by steep mountains, creating a
beautiful setting for swimming and even walking - there are
some interesting walks to take ashore through pine forest
and olive groves. Dinner ashore in one of the local
restaurants - dinner followed by entertainment, courtesy of
the local village folk!
DAY 8: Orak Island - Bodrum
Returning in the direction of Bodrum, anchor off Orak
Island, renowned for its crystal-clear waters and snorkel
around the island or relax on board. Either stay here for
the night or return to Bodrum Harbor for a final night's
dinner ashore.
