Our private daily yacht tours normally visit several swimming bays around Bodrum,
while weekly private gulet charters can travel much farther into the Gulf of Gökova
or the Gulf of Hisarönü.
The routes below are examples. The final itinerary is always planned according to
the selected yacht or gulet, departure point, charter duration, weather,
sea conditions and guest preferences.
Daily routes are deliberately kept flexible. Rather than trying to cover a long distance,
the aim is usually to visit several good swimming bays and leave enough time for lunch,
swimming and relaxing onboard.
A typical daily cruise departing from central Bodrum can use the southern
and eastern cruising area of the peninsula.
Yachts based in Torba normally use the northern side of the Bodrum Peninsula,
allowing more time in nearby bays instead of cruising back toward Bodrum centre.
Depending on the yacht, departure point and conditions, the captain may also
recommend other bays and islands.

Captain-Selected Sheltered Bays
Weekly private gulet charters make it possible to explore a much larger part of the
Turkish Aegean. Instead of returning to Bodrum every evening, the gulet stays overnight
in bays, small ports and sheltered anchorages along the route.
ERK 22 and ERK 23 are private weekly gulets, so the itinerary can be discussed
with your group before departure.

A daily yacht charter is about enjoying nearby bays rather than covering a long distance.
The captain selects practical stops according to the yacht’s departure point.
Weekly itineraries are sample routes rather than a fixed timetable.
The captain may change the order of bays or choose an alternative anchorage
according to weather and sea conditions.
