Tour Overview

Join this fascinating 8-days cruise starting from Bodrum in the Gulf of Gokova, which is located 25 km away from Mugla province on the shores of Turkey's Aegean region, which is also known as the Kerme Bay. Gokova is just like heaven with its numerous bays and perfect colour harmony of green and blue. The sea and the pine trees integrate well with the bays sometimes running amongst the pine trees like a river.

Gokova Gulf is one of the essential destinations of yacht tours and blue cruises thanks to its natural and historical wonders. The ropes of boats can be fastened to the pine trees on the shore. ...more ...less
