Giorno 1 / 7
Sarsala
1
Giorno 1

GöcekSarsala

5 nm short shake-down south from D-Marin Göcek to Sarsala Bay — pine-clad inlet inside the 12 Islands archipelago, sheltered from any direction. Göcek summer wind regime is the imbat (sea breeze from W) at 10-15 kn, milder than the outer Aegean Meltemi. Anchor on sand 4-6 m.

Cosa fare

Snorkel the rocky shoreline pine-cliff edge

Hike pine-and-thyme ridge above bay

Grilled sea bream on deck for sunset

Stargaze with no light pollution

Consiglio per l'ormeggio

Free anchoring in Sarsala Bay on sand at 4-6 m, fully sheltered. No marina; provision before arriving.

Fethiye
2
Giorno 2

Sarsala BayFethiye

12 nm east-southeast to Fethiye — major Turkish Riviera town, Lycian rock-cut tombs (4th-c BC, the tomb of Amyntas with full Ionic temple façade) carved into the cliff above the city. Marina di Fethiye ECE is the standard charter overnight. Tuesday market is the headline shore activity.

Cosa fare

Climb to the 4th-c BC tomb of Amyntas

Gemiler
3
Giorno 3

FethiyeGemiler Island

8 nm south to Gemiler Island (St Nicholas Island) — Byzantine pilgrimage site (4th-6th c, the original tomb of St Nicholas of Myra before relocation to Bari, 1087 AD). Anchor in Coldwater Bay (Soğuksu Koyu) on the mainland opposite — freshwater springs flowing into the sea make the surface temperature drop suddenly, signature Turquoise Coast feature.

Cosa fare

Walk Gemiler Byzantine pilgrimage paths

Snorkel for freshwater-spring temperature drop

Anchor swim in Coldwater Bay

Meze platters at a quay restaurant

Consiglio per l'ormeggio

Free restaurant mooring buoy in Coldwater Bay — pay for dinner, buoy included. Anchor on sand at 5-7 m as alternative. Sheltered from N.

Butterfly Valley
4
Giorno 4

Coldwater BayButterfly Valley

4 nm short hop south to Butterfly Valley + Ölüdeniz. Butterfly Valley (Kelebekler Vadisi) is a 350-m-deep canyon hosting the endemic Jersey tiger butterfly. Day-anchor only — overnight at Ölüdeniz Bay 1 nm east (the Blue Lagoon Mediterranean-most-photographed beach, paragliders from Babadağ Mountain 1969 m above).

Cosa fare

Hike to the Butterfly Valley waterfall

Anchor swim at Ölüdeniz Blue Lagoon

Watch paragliders from Babadağ Mountain (1969 m)

Spot the endemic Jersey tiger butterfly

Consiglio per l'ormeggio

Butterfly Valley day-anchor only on rocky bottom 6-8 m — no overnight (canyon-funnel wind). Overnight at Ölüdeniz on sand at 5-7 m.

Kapı Creek
5

Rakı + thyme honey at a quay restaurant

Stargaze with creek-cliff frame
