BODRUM - BODRUM VIA THE GULF OF GOKOVA |
|
|
|
Day 1 Boarding
the yacht in Bodrum, we enjoy a 'welcome aboard' drink with
our captain and crew. A short briefing from the captain
ensures everyone is familiar with the yacht and what we will
do during the week to come. We settle in and have dinner
aboard, in the harbour.
Day 2 Our first cruise of the day takes us
to Kara island, just south of Bodrum. Here, we swim, explore
the rocky shores and test the waters of the island's hot
springs. After lunch, we cruise to the Southern side of the
Gulf of Gokova, arriving at Cati in the late afternoon.
Dinner and overnight in Cati.
Day 3 After breakfast, we depart for Yedi
Adalari (the Seven Islands), a cruise of just over one hour.
Once tucked in behind the islands, we find a quiet anchorage
at Kufre Bay and take a walk ashore through a forest of
amber trees. This is the Turkey you've dreamed about! There
may be the chance of a barbecue dinner tonight.
Day 4 Morning swims will become part of
your daily regime! We cruise mid-morning to Longoz Bay, our
beautiful, pine-forested lunch stop. The next stop after
Longoz is Karacasogut, a small village only 25 minutes from
Marmaris. For those who wish to spend a night out in
Marmaris, a minibus service departs from the town centre.
Dinner and overnight in Karacasogut.
Day 5 Today we cruise north east to Sedir
Adasi (Cleopatra's island), the site of ancient Cedrae. For
those who wish to explore the ruins ashore and take a swim
at Cleopatra's beach (the sand was reputedly brought here
from Africa especially for Cleopatra!), there is an option
to do just this. In the afternoon, we cruise to our
overnight anchorage on the eastern side of Degirmen Buku.
This spot is known locally as 'English Harbour', as British
torpedo boats hid here during World War II. We spend much of
our time here swimming, snorkeling and windsurfing.
Day 6 After cruising the to the northern
side of the gulf, we stop for lunch and a swim at Akbuk, a
small bay set at the foot of a huge mountain. Continuing our
journey in the afternoon, we arrive at our last stop for the
day at Cokertme Bay - another spectacular anchorage.
Day 7 A leisurely return to Bodrum, with
swimming stops at Orak island and/or Yaliciftlik, both of
which offer crystal clear waters. Tonight we enjoy a
farewell dinner together at the overnight anchorage - Bitez
or Bodrum Harbour.
Day 8 We disembark in Bodrum after
breakfast.
