8 days / 7 nights · Turkey · From €800
Departing every Saturday, the Ekincik Bay Circuit is an 8-day, 7-night shared cabin cruise that takes you along one of Turkey's most captivating coastal routes. Setting sail from the bustling harbour of Fethiye, the gulet winds its way through pine-clad bays, hidden lagoons and historic anchorages before reaching the tranquil shores of Ekincik, then returning to Fethiye to complete the voyage.
This is a shared-cabin cruise, ideal for travellers who wish to experience a full week aboard a traditional wooden gulet without booking an entire yacht. Guests share the vessel with other passengers, enjoying the same relaxed pace of swimming stops, sunbathing on deck and evenings under the stars.
Along the way, expect to explore the sheltered coves of the Göcek archipelago, drop anchor near Tersane Island's ancient shipyard ruins, cruise into the Dalyan River delta by fishing boat, and swim at Cleopatra's legendary bathing spot. Every day brings a fresh anchorage, a new stretch of turquoise water and time to unwind.
This cabin charter runs on a full-board basis, with a welcome cocktail on arrival, three home-cooked meals a day, and an afternoon tea and cake service. Unlimited soft drinks, beer and wine are included throughout the cruise, letting you relax fully into the rhythm of life at sea.
