East Route, Fethiye Bay

Meet the charter company, get to know your sailing yacht, and pick up supplies. In the evening, enjoy dinner at one of the restaurants.

Day 1: Arrival in Fethiye

Meet the charter company, get to know your sailing yacht, and pick up supplies. In the evening, enjoy dinner at one of the restaurants.

Day 2: Boynuz Bükü

Day 2 brings a beautiful sail of around 15 nautical miles, passing several small islands. Boynuz Bükü sits in a well-sheltered bay, great for watersports. Dine in the restaurant's pleasant garden, and take the roughly 45-minute walk to a small waterfall nearby.

Day 3: Karacaören

Sail out between the islands for a lovely 20-nautical-mile day. Spend the night on mooring buoys (the restaurant helps you tie up), then take a beautiful walk from the restaurant with sweeping views over the bay.

Day 4: Kapı Creek

History lovers can first visit the nearby island of Gemiler, home to many beautiful ruins, or take a trip past the famous Ölüdeniz beach. From there, continue on for a 15-nautical-mile sail to Kapı Creek.

Day 5: Göcek

Sail first to a beautiful bay for a swim, then continue after lunch, arriving in Göcek by mid-afternoon to moor at the town jetty. Göcek is a lively little town with plenty of shopping options.

Day 6: Tomb Bay

The name says it all: as you sail into the bay, the Lycian tombs are immediately visible. Fancy a freshen-up? The beach barber gives a proper shave with what might be the best view you'll ever get for it.

Day 7: Fethiye

Sail back to the home port, and enjoy dinner in the evening at a cosy restaurant right in the middle of the bazaar.
