Gulet Boat Cruise Around Marmaris

Experience Turkey's fascinating past and picturesque coastline in a unique new way during this memorable sightseeing cruise. As devotees of the popular Blue Voyage already know, Anatolia, the bridge between Asia and Europe, has housed many civilisations. Some of them were in close proximity with the sea, and thus built their cities on the Aegean or Mediterranean coasts. Although most of them have fallen, many of these ancient sites remain untouched and undiscovered due to the lack of highways. Since most of these coastal areas are still only accessible from the sea, a gulet tour around the small coves and bays offers a unique opportunity to experience history, along with the area's pristine natural beauty. Depart the pier aboard a gulet boat and commence your journey at sea. Gulets are traditional boats made of pinewood, and styled with a pointed fore and round aft. Sail through the crystal-clear blue coastal waters around Marmaris, and pass beaches, the pine-forested shorelines, secluded coves and bays dotted with picturesque islands. You may sunbathe on the front deck of the gulet, or relax in the shade on the back deck. You can also take a swim in a crystal-clear cove (weather permitting), sip a glass of wine or beer, and soak in the ambience before returning to Marmaris. Excursions are at an easy pace without the need for excessive walking or physical activities.
