Mediterranean Dreaming- Fethiye to Demre

After breakfast, we cruise towards the enchanting Butterfly Valley (weather permitting), a secluded paradise framed by dramatic cliffs and lush greenery. Home to over 130 species of butterflies, this hidden gem offers the perfect setting for a refreshing swim in turquoise waters, relaxing on the beach, or a short scenic walk into the valley for elevated views (entrance fee applies). Sturdy footwear is recommended for those wishing to explore further.

We then continue to the iconic Oludeniz – the world-famous Blue Lagoon, celebrated for its crystal-clear waters and postcard-perfect setting. For the adventurous, optional paragliding from Babadag Mountain offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to soar above the lagoon and coastline. Lunch is served onboard in this spectacular location.

In the afternoon, we anchor at St. Nicholas Island, a peaceful bay steeped in history and scattered with ancient Byzantine ruins. A gentle 15–20 minute walk leads to panoramic sunset views — one of the most memorable highlights of the cruise (entrance fee applies). Dinner is freshly prepared and served onboard, followed by a serene overnight stay at St. Nicholas Island under the stars.

An early start marks another spectacular day along the Turquoise Coast — or feel free to relax on deck as we cruise past the sweeping sands of Patara Beach, Turkey’s longest shoreline stretching 20 kilometres. Breakfast is served at either Mouse Island or Gerenlik Bay, followed by a refreshing swim stop at Hidayet Bay (also known as Shark Bay), where crystal-clear waters invite you in.

We then arrive in Kas, a charming harbour town known for its Lycian rock tombs, well-preserved Roman theatre, boutique shops and laid-back bohemian cafés. Enjoy free time to explore its narrow streets before we continue sailing to Ufakdere or

Inönü Bay for another swim in secluded waters.

Our journey continues to Kekova, where you’ll view the fascinating Sunken City — an ancient Lycian-Roman settlement partially submerged following a 2nd-century earthquake (viewing from the yacht only). We then visit the picturesque village of Simena, accessible exclusively by boat. Here, you may hike up to the hilltop castle for panoramic views or wander among Lycian sarcophagi and small local stalls.

Dinner is freshly prepared onboard as we anchor in the peaceful Gokkaya Bay for the night. Optional water sports are available, and for those seeking a lively evening, a complimentary water taxi can take you to the renowned Smuggler’s Inn Pirate Party.

Before breakfast, we visit the captivating Pirates Cave, renowned for its striking rock formations and crystal-clear waters. Afterwards, enjoy breakfast and a refreshing morning swim at the peaceful Çamlı Bay, framed by pine-covered hills and calm turquoise seas.

We then cruise towards Turtle Beach, a natural habitat of the protected Caretta Caretta sea turtles. Keep a watchful eye as these graceful creatures glide through the clear waters — a special moment for nature lovers.

Following lunch onboard, we sail into Demre Harbour, arriving at approximately 13:00, where your unforgettable journey along the Turquoise Coast comes to a close.

This final morning perfectly captures the essence of the Blue Cruise — pristine bays, serene waters, and rich coastal wildlife — bringing your voyage to a memorable and fitting conclusion.
