Imagine sailing through crystal-clear waters, surrounded by breathtaking landscapes, with the wind in your hair and a sense of pure freedom.

At TAKK Travel, we specialize in offering tailor-made Blue Cruise experiences that blend the beauty of Turkey’s coastlines with impeccable service and attention to detail.
The Blue Cruise, or “Mavi Yolculuk”, is a traditional Turkish sailing experience that dates back to the 1950s, when writers and artists first started exploring the stunning southwestern coast of Turkey aboard gulets – traditional wooden yachts. Since then, it has evolved into one of the most sought-after vacation experiences in the world. A Blue Cruise allows you to sail along the Turkish Riviera, explore secluded coves, and discover historic treasures hidden along the coastline.

Turkey’s Mediterranean and Aegean coasts offer some of the most beautiful cruising routes in the world. Here are some of the top destinations you can explore on your Blue Cruise with TAKK Travel:
Known as the “St. Tropez of Turkey,” Bodrum is the starting point for many Blue Cruises. This vibrant town is famous for its rich history, cosmopolitan lifestyle, and glamorous nightlife. Bodrum’s Castle of St. Peter and Mausoleum at Halicarnassus are must-see landmarks for history buffs. From Bodrum, you’ll set sail on a journey through the Gulf of Gökova, where you’ll discover pristine beaches, hidden coves, and the famous Seven Islands, perfect for swimming and snorkeling.
Marmaris is another popular starting point for Blue Cruises, and it offers a perfect mix of natural beauty and modern amenities. As you leave Marmaris behind, you’ll sail toward quiet bays like Ekincik Bay, where you can visit the ancient city of Kaunos, explore its rock tombs, and take a riverboat tour along the Dalyan River. Marmaris is also an ideal spot for those who love nightlife, with a bustling harbor and an array of restaurants and bars.
Fethiye is famous for its stunning natural beauty and historical sites. While sailing around Fethiye, you can visit the Blue Lagoon at Ölüdeniz, often considered one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, known for its turquoise waters and dramatic mountain backdrop. The nearby Butterfly Valley is another must-visit, where you can hike through a lush canyon and discover over 100 species of butterflies. Fethiye also offers access to ancient ruins like Tlos and the Lycian Rock Tombs.
Göcek is a small, charming town and one of the best places for a luxurious, tranquil Blue Cruise experience. It’s known for its 12 Islands, a group of beautiful, secluded islands perfect for sailing, swimming, and sunbathing. This area is ideal for travelers who want to avoid the crowds and immerse themselves in nature. The calm waters of Göcek Bay make it a favorite spot for yacht enthusiasts, and the nearby islands offer peaceful anchorages where you can enjoy absolute serenity.
Further along the coast, the sunken city of Kekova offers a unique glimpse into Turkey’s ancient history. Here, you can snorkel or kayak over submerged ruins from ancient Lycian times. The nearby town of Kaş is a charming harbor town, known for its bohemian vibe and ancient ruins. Kaş is also a popular destination for diving enthusiasts, with plenty of opportunities to explore underwater caves and wrecks.
The Datça Peninsula is a hidden gem, offering stunning landscapes and uncrowded beaches. The town of Datça is small and peaceful, with charming stone houses and local taverns serving fresh seafood. Sail along the rugged coastline, where you’ll discover hidden bays like Palamutbükü and ancient ruins such as the city of Knidos, perched on the tip of the peninsula. Knidos is famous for its magnificent amphitheater and panoramic views of the Aegean Sea.
