Sailing Holidays in Turkey
Discover towering cliffs and secret coves, deserted bays and sandy beaches on a sailing holiday in Turkey.
A sailing holiday is the only way to discover the beautiful coastline of Turkey. The scenery is breathtaking and the hospitality and warmth of the Turkish people will impress you. Keen sailors will enjoy the reliable winds and choice of sailing itineraries, but families and less experienced crews will appreciate the many sheltered bays along the coast which encourage you to stop for swimming and snorkelling in clear turquoise water.
Discover the Turquoise coast
Turkey offers an unspoilt coastline with many beautiful bays all along the coast, perfect for a lunchtime swim stop or overnight anchorage. The afternoon winds are reliable and you can stay out sailing until early evening, enjoying the wind, as you won't be fighting for a place in a busy harbour or crowded marina. Most nights you will be moored at a wooden jetty built by the restaurant in the bay.
Holiday choices
YACHT CHARTER: Explore the unspoilt coastline of southern Turkey. We offer an extensive range of bareboat yachts and catamarans from bases all along the "Turquoise coast" - choose from the cruising areas below.
FLOTILLA: Flotillas are a great way to discover this exciting cruising area. We offer 2 flotillas in Turkey - Bodrum and Fethiye.
LEARN TO SAIL: RYA Competent Crew and Day Skipper courses are available from Gocek so you can learn to sail while enjoying a holiday in the sun.
GULETS: Fully crewed Turkish gulets are great fun for larger groups of 8 to 20 people.
MOTORYACHTS: We offer motoryachts for charter from Marmaris, giving easy access to the beautiful Fethiye Bay.
SAIL & STAY: Extend your sailing holiday with a few days or a week ashore in a beach resort hotel.
Sailing areas in Turkey
There are 3 cruising areas along the coast of Turkey and all offer access to the beautiful unspoilt coastline. But winds get stronger heading westwards so choose the cruising area to suit your experience - there’s plenty for all levels of sailors.
