Board the yacht at Kemer and enjoy a 'welcome aboard'
drink with your captain and crew. A briefing from your
captain tells you about the yacht and the week ahead and
then everyone settles in before dinner. Overnight in the
harbour.

swimming and relaxation before we move on a short distance
to our overnight stop, Cavus Liman (ancient Adrasan).

Demre with breakfast on the way. In the township of Demre,
we visit the church of St. Nicholas (Santa Claus) and a
short way out of town, the ruins of Myra, including an
antique theatre and a group of accessible rock tombs. In
the late afternoon, we set out for Gokkaya Liman, a bay
resembling a lake: Gokkaya is protected by many off-lying
islands and is perfect for swimming.
Day 4 A leisurely cruise along the
northern side of Kekova island is the highlight of today.
We will view the sunken city before lunching and swimming
at a Kekova anchorage. Arriving in Kas in the afternoon,

dinner and spend the night in Kas Harbour or in a nearby,
quiet anchorage.

night marveling at the quiet solitude and beauty of this
anchorage.
Day 6 Arriving at Cirali Liman, alongside

interested in photographing the ancient Chimaera (an
eternal flame), it is a walk of 1.5 hours - best seen at
dusk. Dinner and overnight in this spectacular bay.
