Itinerary
Embarkation at Göcek & First Breeze
Arrive at Göcek Marina in the late morning. Meet the crew, settle into your cabin, and enjoy a safety briefing. After provisioning, sail to a nearby bay for your first swim and sunset. Evening at leisure onboard with a welcome dinner of freshly prepared Turkish cuisine.
Tip: Arrive a day early in Göcek if you want time to explore the town and relax before boarding.
Sail to Gemiler Island & Beach Time
Cruise to Gemiler Island (St. Nicholas Island), known for its Byzantine ruins and panoramic views. Spend the morning snorkeling and exploring the island's ancient churches and shoreline. In the afternoon, anchor in a sheltered bay for swimming and paddleboarding. Dinner and overnight onboard under the stars.
Important: Bring water shoes for rocky shores and the island ruins.
Ölüdeniz (Blue Lagoon) & Belcekız Beach
Head east toward Ölüdeniz, home to the famous Blue Lagoon and Belcekız Beach. Enjoy a full day of beach relaxation, sunbathing, and optional paragliding (book locally). The crystalline lagoon is perfect for swimming and underwater photography. Return to the gulet for a fresh seafood dinner and overnight in the bay.
Tip: Paragliding is weather-dependent—book through local operators in Ölüdeniz for the best experience.
Butterfly Valley & Kabak Bay
Sail to Butterfly Valley, a nature reserve framed by towering cliffs. Hike (optional) to view the valley or relax on the pebble beach and spot seasonal butterflies. Later, cruise to Kabak Bay for tranquil waters, yoga opportunities, and a relaxed evening around a beach bonfire or onboard entertainment.
Note: Butterfly Valley has limited facilities—pack essentials and waterproof bags for valuables.
Sarsala Bay & Kalkan Harbor
Spend the morning snorkeling in the turquoise expanse of Sarsala Bay, one of the coast's most sheltered swimming spots. In the afternoon, sail toward Kalkan, a charming seaside town ideal for exploring narrow streets, boutique shops, and waterfront cafes. Enjoy a sunset walk in Kalkan before returning to the yacht for dinner.
Tip: Try local mezze and freshly caught fish at Kalkan's harbor-side restaurants.
Return to Göcek & Disembarkation
After an early breakfast, enjoy a final short swim or morning coffee on deck as the boat sails back to Göcek Marina. Disembark after breakfast. Guests can arrange transfers to Dalaman Airport or continue traveling to Fethiye, Kaş, or Antalya. End of the Mediterranean Sailing Escape.

Recent Turkey Reviews
Turkey Felt Taken Care Of From Day One
We booked a Turkey trip for me and my wife through TourGrids, and honestly the coordinator they assigned — Priya — was the real reason everything went well. Before the trip, she was on WhatsApp almost daily, answering all our questions without making us feel like we were bothering her. When our hotel check-in in Istanbul had a small issue, one message to her and it was sorted within the hour. She called the property directly and kept us updated throughout. No hidden charges, the itinerary was exactly what we discussed, and the cabs were always on time. Felt like someone was genuinely watching over the trip the whole time.
Finally Found a Company I Could Trust
Honestly, I was very nervous about handing over our entire Turkey trip to a company I'd never used before. My husband and I had always planned everything ourselves, so this was a big step. But from the first WhatsApp conversation itself, TourGrids felt different — they actually listened to what we wanted instead of pushing a standard package. Our coordinator was reachable throughout, even when we had questions about visa documents at odd hours. Hotels were proper good, the Istanbul to Cappadocia transfers were all pre-arranged, and there were no surprise charges at the end. Everything matched exactly what was promised. That trust factor is what I'll remember most.
Turkey Trip Cost Less Than I Budgeted
Honestly went in skeptical because I'd priced Turkey myself on MakeMyTrip and the numbers weren't looking great. TourGrids came back with a package for me and my wife that included flights, 4-star hotels in Istanbul and Cappadocia, airport transfers, most breakfasts, and a hot air balloon experience — all within a budget I wasn't expecting. The coordinator was available on WhatsApp throughout, answered every small doubt without making us feel like we were bothering him. No hidden charges when we actually paid, which I was specifically watching for. Booking independently would've saved maybe 3-4k maximum but with ten times the effort. The hotels were proper good, especially the cave hotel in Cappadocia — that alone felt worth it.
