Or perhaps you wish to learn how to moor stern to, Mediterranean style. Our crew will be delighted to show you, and you may be as `hands-on`as you wish knowing that you’ll still be well fed and watered.

Choose Your Blue Cruising Destination in Turkey and Greece

The choice is always yours as the itinerary on your gulet is always flexible. When you discover an anchorage that you particularly love, then you can spend extra time there. At night, if you're in the mood to groove, you might want to go ashore and enjoy local Turkish nightlife in Bodrum or Marmaris. Or, you may prefer to fall asleep to the sounds of the sea in a quiet secluded cove whilst others party away nearby. With a private gulet, it’s the beauty of having the choice.
