   Bodrum - Orak Island

   The coastline opens into the serene bay of Orak Island, known for its crystal-clear waters and tranquil atmosphere. You spend the afternoon swimming and snorkeling or choose among shipwreck scuba dives. For dinner dive deep into a family style dinner, filled with meze, yoghurt sauces, börek, pilav and maybe even a cheeky döner kebab. At the end, whether you have room or not, there will be Baklava.

2. 2 hours

   Orak Island - Yalikavak

   Wake up in Yalikavak, where Turkey tumbles into the Aegean Sea. The most westerly bar before the Greek Islands serves Turkish tea and raki-on-the-rocks. Try Catalada Island for sea life scuba. Or Tulluce Island for kayak creeks. Yalikavak is also very known for its selection of globally renowned restaurants. It is your pick. Zuma, Opa, Bagatelle or Novikov, definitely combine it with a little bit or a tender full of shopping.

3. overnight 6 hours

   Yalikavak - D-Maris Bay

   Continue your journey towards the vibrant port of Marmaris. Spend the day at D Maris Bay, an exclusive beach club set among forested hills and clear waters. Enjoy lunch at Zuma or La Guérite before the evening draws you into Marmaris Old Town, where narrow streets and artisan boutiques lead the way back to your yacht for dinner under the stars.

4. Day 4

   D-Maris Bay

   Head out on a 5-hour, a personalized 4x4 journey with a local expert guide, taking you on quiet backroads followed by a sunset & beach barbeque and party with live music. If you feel like you want a crazy adventure then we’ll get you paired up with a guide to take you to the UNESCO-listed white travertines of Pamukkale. Here a hot air balloon will be waiting for you. Or stay hanging around the bay with all the toys out and an unlimited supply of Turkish delights.

5. 1.5 hours

   Marmaris - Bozborun

   Today you’ll wake up in Bozburun, Turkey’s most elegant bay. Sip fresh pressed juice in a hammock, with Spotify on repeat. Refreshed? Dive headlong into the Bozburun Bay. A 10-minute swim brings you to Yesil Ada; an uninhabited islet where your crew are serving shrimp summer rolls under parasols.

6. 4 hours Overnight

   Bozburun - Dalyan

   Another day. Another memory to last a lifetime. Take a RIB up the surging Dalyan River. Spot Nile turtles and Roman ruins hiding up creeks. This morning’s destination is a healing mud bath. Ride the river downcurrent to Dalyan’s protected Iztuzu Beach. Hotels are prohibited in this ecological area. Come sunset, 5km of golden sand is yours alone.

7. 3 hours

   Dalyan - Göcek

   Wake up in between Göcek’s 12 islands for your first swim. Throw inflatables from your beach club, then dive right in. Or jump in from the rope swing tied to a phoenix tree. Fancy a typical yachting experience then head to Riva bar Miori, named after the Japanese word for “village by the water”. Expect art with gastronomy and yes, you can dock your yacht right outside the restaurant.

8. Day 8

   Göcek

   Dip in for a quick morning swim and enjoy a leisurely breakfast onboard whilst cruising into the port of Göcek, if you feel you missed an island and want to extend let us know. You definitely would not be the first that does not want to leave! Drivers will be arranged back to the airport for your onward journey.
