Turkey Sailing Tours

Turkey is a country at the crossroads of Europe and Asia with unspoiled coastlines on the Aegean and Mediterranean Seas. It comprises more than a thousand kilometers of coastline which have a rich history, stunning beaches, fabulous food, and vibrant nightlife – Turkey is your Mediterranean fantasy, best discovered by boat. A Turkey sailing tour focuses on providing an authentic experience, visiting picturesque seashores, bays, quaint coastal towns, ancient ruins, and national parks, giving you plenty of time to explore, relax, and socialize.

The balmy air of the Mediterranean acts as a pleasant antidote for the warm climate, meaning that days are easily taken up by swimming, sunbathing, or discovering one of the unique sites, and by night it’s pure indulgence in the Mediterranean cuisine and local wines while watching the sunset splash colors over the sea before partying the night away. Our Turkey sailing tours take you through iconic Mediterranean hotspots like Bodrum, Fethiye, Marmaris, and the ancient ruins of Knidos and Kekova.

It will be easy for you to soon discover why we often hear a Turkey sailing tour is one of the most memorable experiences of one’s travels.

Turkish cuisine is a culinary journey that tantalizes the taste buds with its rich flavors and diverse dishes. At the heart of this cuisine are the beloved kebabs, with various meats like lamb, beef, and chicken marinated and grilled to perfection. Shish kebabs, döner kebabs, and köfte (meatballs) are favorites among locals and visitors alike. The succulent meat, often served with pita bread and a selection of mezes (appetizers), reflects the fusion of Middle Eastern and Mediterranean influences that define Turkish cuisine. Mezes play a significant role in Turkish dining. These small, flavorful dishes range from stuffed grape leaves (dolma) to creamy eggplant salad (baba ghanoush) and cool yogurt with herbs (cacık). The variety of mezes allows diners to sample an array of tastes, making it a social and communal experience. Sharing mezes over conversation and laughter is an integral part of the Turkish dining tradition, an element you will experience during your Turkey tours.
