Cruise to the hidden bays of Fethiye

1. Day 1. Fethiye: the start and a taste of the Orient

   18:00 — meeting at the premium Yacht Classic marina (1 hour from Dalaman airport). We meet the crew, check in and head out to dinner at an atmospheric seaside restaurant.

2. Day 2. St Nicholas Island and the glowing sea

   We explore the uninhabited island of Gemiler — ancient Byzantine ruins without the tourist crowds. We see off a fantastic sunset by an old lighthouse with a glass of sparkling wine.

   WOW factor: a night swim among bioluminescent plankton — the sea around you will shimmer with millions of neon sparks!

3. Day 3. Kapı Creek and the most tender lamb

   We move to a secluded bay surrounded by olive groves. We climb a hill for mesmerising panoramic shots.

   WOW factor: dinner at a family restaurant where the most tender lamb is cooked especially for us in a traditional oven.

4. Days 4–5. Expedition to Dalyan: tombs, crabs and turtles

   Two days in Ekincik Bay with a big river-boat excursion. We’ll see majestic rock-cut tombs — as old as the Egyptian pyramids — ancient Kaunos and the protected Turtle Beach.

   WOW factor: we taste the freshest blue crabs and dine at the cult restaurant “Pineapple”, where huge Caretta caretta turtles swim right by your table.

5. Day 6. Tuna hunting and secluded Sarsala

   We head to the picturesque Sarsala Bay with its crystal-clear water.

   WOW factor: we switch to real fisherman mode — catching a big tuna and salting it right there on board!

6. Day 7. White cliffs and a farewell evening

   We return to Fethiye, stopping at a bay with snow-white cliffs. Total relaxation: SUP boarding, snorkelling, sunbathing and a farewell dinner in the marina.

7. Day 8. Finish

   09:00 — we vacate the cabins. You go home refreshed, with a gorgeous tan and hundreds of unreal photos!
