With more coastline than any other Mediterranean country, Turkey is one of the most popular yacht charter destinations in Europe. Turkey is a country full of culture, history and intrigue as well as clear waters and excellent sailing conditions so it is no wonder it is as popular as it is.
So many aspects make Turkey a wonderful yacht charter 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.
Turkey’s peak charter season is from April to October when the weather is warm, the skies are clear and the breezes steady. Generally during this period you will experience gentle winds and calm but warm seas.
The Carian Coast is one of the more popular parts of Turkey to experience a yacht charter holiday. The Carian Coast is the region between the famous yachting ports of Bodrum and Marmaris. In this area Mariner Boating Holidays has an extensive selection of bareboat yachts and catamarans, gullets and luxury super yachts. The bustling seaside towns of Bodrum and Marmaris offer yacht charterers the chance to experience Turkish culture and indulge in some shopping for souvenirs such as locally made carpets, leather goods and pottery. The Carian Coasts lively ports are easily accessible from the local airports of Bodrum and Dalaman or by ferry from the Dodecanese islands of Rhodes and Kos in Greece.
After the excitement and pace of Bodrum you can look forward to unwinding on your luxury yacht and taking a few days to explore the Datca Peninsula. The Datca Peninsula, unspoiled by mass tourism, is a long, narrow, mountainous finger of land that stretches west of Marmaris for about 100km. It separates the Mediterranean and Aegean seas, offering unspoiled natural beauty and beautiful crystal clear waters. A traditional Gullet cruise or a luxury yacht charter is the perfect way to explore the many beautiful bays this area is famous for.
Overland from the bustling ancient city of Istanbul via Gallipoli to depart on your sailing yacht from Kusadasi, Marmaris, Bodrum or Gocek taking in the ancient Greek city of Ephesus is one of many suggested itineraries available to you.
Blessed by sunshine and good winds sail on moderate seas, enjoy reasonable prices and delicious exotic cuisine as you explore history and uncover treasures from the bazaars.
Later take an overland trip to Cappadocia or Pamukkale, the variety and volume of historic sights in this vast country will amaze you.
Sailing in Turkey is one of the few places you can combine excellent sailing conditions with historical ruins and ancient archaeological sites. Contact Mariner Boating Holidays to find the perfect yacht charter holiday for you!
