Olympos & Adrasan Çavuş Bay: History, Nature & Serenity

After breakfast, your crew will brief you on the route and boat details.

We then set course for Olympos, one of the most important ancient cities of Lycia. Once a strategic pirate hub due to its secluded location, Olympos is now admired worldwide for its mystical ruins, 3.2 km Golden Beach, lush endemic vegetation, and charming wooden guesthouses.

Here, you’ll have time to explore the archaeological site, walk through the valley, or relax by the coast. After lunch and a refreshing swim stop, we continue to Adrasan Çavuş Bay, a calm and secluded anchorage. Dinner will be served on board, and we’ll spend the night in this peaceful bay.

Demre, Myra & Gökkaya Bay

Early in the morning, we set sail toward Demre. After enjoying breakfast in Çayağzı, guests may join an optional tour (extra) to the ancient city of Myra, once a prominent Lycian settlement and the episcopal seat of St. Nicholas—revered in Byzantine times as the protector of children, the poor, and sailors. The excursion also includes visits to Demre and Andriake, offering insight into the region’s rich history.

Following the land tour, we return to the yacht and cruise to Gökkaya Bay, where we will anchor for dinner and spend the night in its peaceful surroundings.

Sunken City, Tersane Bay & Üçağız

After breakfast, we begin our journey over the Batık Şehir (Sunken City) of Kekova, where the ruins of an ancient Lycian settlement can be seen beneath the crystal-clear waters. Without anchoring here—since it is a protected archaeological site—you’ll have a unique opportunity to admire its history from the deck.

We will continue to Tersane Bay, once an ancient shipyard, where we anchor for lunch and a refreshing swim break. The calm waters and coastal ruins make it a wonderful spot to relax and explore.

In the late afternoon, we cruise to Üçağız Bay, where we will anchor for dinner and an overnight stay.
Guests who wish may join the optional Kaş–Saklıkent excursion (extra), which includes lunch. This optional trip offers a mix of nature, adventure, and culture for those looking to explore further.

Üçağız & Simena, Kekova

After breakfast in Üçağız, we set course for Simena (Kaleköy), a charming coastal village accessible only by boat. Here, you’ll have the chance to walk through narrow stone paths, visit the Genoese Castle, and take in panoramic views of Kekova’s turquoise bays. At the summit, the remains of a small Lycian theatre with a 300-seat capacity await, offering a glimpse into the region’s deep history.

After your visit, we return to the gulet and cruise to Kekova Bay, where swimming stops and relaxation fill the afternoon. Dinner and overnight stay will be spent anchored in the peaceful waters of Kekova.

Ceneviz (Genoese) Harbour / Sazak Bay & Phaselis

We begin cruising early in the morning toward Ceneviz (Genoese) Harbour or Sazak Bay, both known for their untouched nature and quiet, sheltered waters. After a relaxing swim and lunch on board, we continue to Phaselis Bay, one of the most historically significant Lycian ports.

Founded by colonists from Rhodes in the 7th century BC, Phaselis thrived thanks to maritime trade and was especially famous for its perfume commerce. The ancient city features three natural harbors, making it a unique settlement of the time. If you wish, you may walk through the seaside ruins—stone streets, Roman baths, ancient shops, and the impressive aqueduct—situated beneath fragrant pine forests.

We will enjoy dinner here and spend the night anchored in this beautiful bay.

Alacasu / Ayışığı Bay & Kemer

After breakfast, we set sail toward Alacasu or Ayışığı Bay, where you can relax, swim, and enjoy the calm turquoise waters. In the afternoon, we cruise back toward Kemer Marina. Depending on conditions, we will either dock at the marina or anchor in a nearby bay. Dinner will be served on board, followed by our final overnight stay of the journey.
