FLOTILLA SAILING IN TURKEY 2007

With abundant sunshine, crystal clear waters, yacht cruising in Turkey is a true delight, there are so many unspoiled coves and forgotten harbours it really is a yachtsman's paradise. The coast's rich history offers a fascinating blend of crusader castles, rock tombs, ancient Roman and Egyptian baths to explore. Each bay provides a quiet backwater with rustic bohemian style restaurant. To sail this magnificent coast by yacht is to experience the genuine warmth and friendliness of the local Turkish people, take in their customs and wonderful life style while savouring their splendid and spicy cuisine.

Setting an easy pace, our flotillas explore the varied and wonderful Gulf's east (Lycian cruise) and west (Carian cruise) of Marmaris during a two week cruise. Please call to confirm each itinerary departure date.
