          If you want to join one of the most popular things to do along the Mediterranean coastline, jump on board a week-long Turkish Gulet Cruise departing Fethiye. You will spend seven days and six nights taking in fantastic sights while visiting beautiful bays for swimming and snorkelling on this unforgettable Blue Cruise Turkey journey.

          You will depart Fethiye bound for Butterfly Valley, where it is time for your first swim and the start of your gulet holiday experience in the Mediterranean, or you can hike into the valley to see a waterfall. 

          Afterwards, you will cruise past Europe’s most photographed beach, Oludeniz, before anchoring behind the Blue Lagoon. Your first night on board will be spent at St Nicholas Island, where you can enjoy the sunset through the ancient ruins.

          On day 2, you will cruise to Kas, a great place for shopping or stocking up on snacks. The next few days will be spent in the Kekova region, where there is plenty to see, including the famous Sunken City of Kekova and Simena Castle. On day 4, you will arrive at Demre Harbour, where some travellers on the shorter cruise will disembark. Here you can visit the ruins of Myra before returning to the boat. New passengers will then join the journey as the voyage back to Fethiye begins.

          On this cruise, you will see the same major highlights twice, which is always worthwhile, while also discovering different bays for swimming and overnight stays along the route. You can also take part in optional activities such as paragliding or diving.

          You will stay on board a classic Turkish yacht. These gulets offer cabins with twin or double share, and solo travellers share with other solo travellers. All cabins have a private bathroom, so there is no need to worry about shared facilities. If you are travelling with your own group and prefer to sail privately, visit our hire yacht page for more information and gulet options. On board, you will enjoy an array of delicious Turkish dishes as you sail. Your Blue Cruise Turkey journey to Kekova is sure to become a true holiday highlight.

          Check-in for the Turkish Gulet Cruise departing Fethiye takes place from 9:00 AM to 10:30 AM. You will receive the final time and meeting details before departure. Following check-in at the office, you will head to the harbour for a briefing, meet the crew, and depart from Fethiye. Your first stop is Butterfly Valley (Kelebekler Vadisi), where you will enjoy your first lunch, take a refreshing swim, and hike up to the waterfall if you wish.


          Butterfly Valley is a stunning hidden gorge surrounded by steep cliffs reaching up to 350 metres high. Accessible only by boat, it is named after the many butterfly species found there, especially the Jersey Tiger. The valley features a pristine beach, turquoise waters, and a small stream leading to waterfalls, making it a popular spot for swimming, hiking, and exploring a natural, untouched landscape. During the walk, you may encounter a variety of moths and butterflies depending on the time of year.


          Oludeniz, home to the world-famous Blue Lagoon, is often referred to as the most photographed beach in Europe. With its calm turquoise waters framed by lush green mountains, you will enjoy swimming, paragliding, and some of Turkey’s most iconic coastal scenery along the Mediterranean coast during your Blue Cruise Turkey journey.


          Optional Activity: Paragliding Blue Lagoon

          In Oludeniz, you have the option to go paragliding. The flight lasts around 30–45 minutes, taking off from Babadag Mountain about 2,000 metres above sea level before gliding over Oludeniz Beach and the Blue Lagoon.

          Paragliding needs to be booked pre-cruise to secure your spot.


          On your first evening, you will anchor at St Nicholas Island, famous for its ancient ruins and one of Turkey’s most spectacular sunsets. Among pine-covered slopes, you can explore centuries-old chapels and stone remains before reaching the summit, where a Byzantine amphitheatre offers a breathtaking front-row view as the sun sinks into the sea.

          Today, in the early hours, your cruise will head for Aquarium Bay. Breakfast will be served on board, and you will have time for swimming before continuing further south along the Mediterranean coast during your Blue Cruise Turkey journey.


          Kas, a historic town with roots in Lycian, Roman, and Ottoman cultures, has evolved from a humble fishing village into one of the coast’s most charming destinations. Its picturesque harbour and 2,400-year-old marble streets invite leisurely exploration, with artisan boutiques and shops famous for handmade jewellery and local crafts. Just beyond the town, the Antiphellos Amphitheatre offers sweeping sea views, perfectly blending history, culture, and the relaxed coastal atmosphere that makes Kas truly unforgettable.


          Optional Activity: Diving in Kas

          In Kas, you will have the option to go scuba diving. Both certified and beginner divers are welcome to join. Kas is one of Turkey’s top diving destinations, known for its crystal-clear waters and rich marine life. With more than 40 dive sites, you can explore colourful reefs and fascinating underwater landscapes. Suitable for both beginners and experienced divers, Kas offers unforgettable underwater adventures alongside spectacular Mediterranean scenery.


          Diving needs to be booked pre-cruise to secure your spot.


          After spending a few hours in Kas old town, you will sail on towards the Kekova coast and anchor in Kocakari Bay for the night.

          Caretta CarettaWalking TrekkingEntrance FeeWatersportsHistorical Site

          After a leisurely breakfast in the peaceful surroundings of Kekova, you will set sail towards the intriguing Sunken City of Kekova, one of the most fascinating highlights of a Blue Cruise Turkey journey.


          This remarkable Lycian settlement dates back more than 2,400 years and slipped beneath the sea after a series of earthquakes between the 2nd and 8th centuries. As you glide along the shoreline, you will see ancient walls, staircases, and harbours lying just below the surface, framed by the dazzling turquoise waters of Kekova Bay along the Mediterranean coast.


          Your journey then brings you to the picturesque village of Kalekoy Village (ancient Simena), also home to Simena Castle. With fewer than 50 houses and accessible only by boat or on foot, the village offers a glimpse into a quieter coastal life. Along the waterfront, striking Lycian sarcophagi rise from the shallows, silent reminders of a civilisation that thrived here centuries ago. Wandering the narrow bougainvillaea-lined paths of the village, you will soon reach Simena Castle, a medieval fortress built upon Lycian foundations. From its hilltop vantage point, breathtaking views unfold across the Kekova archipelago, dotted with countless islets and bays. Before descending, you may wish to pause and enjoy one of the village’s famous homemade ice creams, with fig and peach flavours being local favourites.


          In the afternoon, you will continue to the serene Gokkaya Bay, where pine-clad hills give way to a scattering of tranquil islets. This secluded anchorage is perfect for swimming in crystal-clear waters or simply relaxing on deck during your gulet holiday along the Turkish coast.


          Optionally, you may visit Smugglers Inn at night, a rustic bar set on a remote island accessible only by boat, where music, dancing, and a one-of-a-kind atmosphere unfold under the stars.

          Today is an easy start. You will begin the morning with a refreshing swim before enjoying another delicious breakfast on board during your Blue Cruise Turkey journey along the Mediterranean coast.  After breakfast, the gulet will cruise towards Demre, where you will moor before lunchtime. It is time to bid farewell to fellow passengers who are completing the four-day cruise and welcome new arrivals joining the trip.  During this time, you will cruise to Karemlik Turtles Bay, where you may see Caretta turtles while snorkelling and relaxing in the clear waters. You may also visit Demre Cayagzi harbour, where you can explore the local market or enjoy Turkish tea at a local cafe.


          In the afternoon, you will cruise back to Kalekoy Village via the Sunken City of Kekova, where you can take paddleboards towards the Lycian tombs or head east of the town to view the Lycian tombs standing majestically in the water.

          Later in the day, you will anchor again in Gokkaya Bay, a peaceful anchorage and important turtle breeding ground. While swimming here, be mindful of these majestic creatures in their natural habitat.


          Tonight, you may choose to visit Smugglers Inn again for another lively night under the stars.

          Today you will cruise to Limanagzi Bay, a tranquil escape renowned for its crystal-clear waters, lush green backdrop, and peaceful ambience. With inviting beachside restaurants and excellent swimming and snorkelling, it is a perfect place to unwind and enjoy the unspoiled beauty of the Mediterranean during your Blue Cruise Turkey journey.


          Next, you will cruise to Kas for more shopping, or you may prefer to sit in one of the local cafes for great coffee and watch the world go by, giving you time to explore further. Take a short walk to visit the Antiphellos Amphitheatre near Kas Harbour, then continue to Kucuk Cakil Beach, a tiny cove with crystal-clear turquoise water. The beach is narrow and framed by cliffs, making it perfect for a refreshing dip just steps from town.

          There is another chance to try scuba diving as an optional activity.

          Diving needs to be booked pre-cruise to secure your spot.

          This morning you will wake up to the vivid blue waters of Butterfly Valley, one of the most breathtaking natural wonders along the Mediterranean coast during your Blue Cruise Turkey journey on the Fethiye to Kekova to Fethiye route. Nestled between towering cliffs rising nearly 350 metres high, the valley takes its name from the rare Jersey Tiger butterflies that can be seen here during the summer months. You may enjoy a refreshing swim in the crystal-clear sea or take an optional hike up the shaded trail leading to a hidden waterfall surrounded by lush greenery.


          From here, you will continue to Oludeniz and its famous Blue Lagoon, often described as one of the most photographed beaches in the world. With calm turquoise waters and a sweeping white sandbar, the lagoon is a true icon of the Turkish coast. You will have time to swim, relax on the beach, or simply take in the scenery during your Turkish Gulet Cruise along this spectacular coastline.


          As the day winds down, you will sail to St Nicholas Island (Gemiler Island), steeped in history and legend. The island is home to the remains of several early Christian churches dating back to the 4th and 5th centuries and is closely linked to the story of St Nicholas. You can wander through the atmospheric remains of ancient chapels and tombs scattered across the island, or follow the path up to Sunset Point for sweeping panoramic views. As the sun sinks into the horizon, it creates the perfect moment to reflect on another memorable day of your gulet holiday.
