Cruising the Coastline - Gulet Routes

These week-long cruises can be combined with a week on land, staying at one of our featured hotels on the Bodrum Peninsula.

Itinerary one: Bodrum to the Gulf of Gökova
This route is perfect for exploring the glorious scenery of the renowned Gulf of Gökova.  Stops might include the numerous, unspoilt bays of the Seven Islands, the bays of Löngöz where pines and cypresses follow the shore line, and the dramatic bay of English Harbour, which sheltered ships during the Second World War. These waters are perfect for swimming, fishing or walking whilst the boat is at anchor.

Itinerary two: Gulf of Hisarönü, from Bodrum
The Hisarönü cruise encompasses history, archaeology and the delights of secluded bays and stunning scenery. Knidos was once a thriving, prosperous town and port, dating back to 400 BC. It sheltered many ships during storms and today it is well worth visiting its ruins in their spectacular setting.

• Palamutbükü, a little hamlet just shy of Datça, is the site of ancient Triopium, a city that once rivalled Knidos. Set amongst pungent thyme and almond trees are the ruins of the ancient town and the acropolis. Interesting stops with spectacular scenery, excellent cuisine and turquoise waters make this an unforgettable journey.
