There is no better way to cruise the Greek Islands as you relax onboard a fabulous Turkish Gulet. Throughout the full itinerary of this picturesque cruise, you will visit the North Dodecanese Greek Islands. With plenty to do and see during the cruise with opportunities for sun-bathing, swimming, snorkelling, fishing and shore excursions, there is also plenty of time to relax onboard as your captain navigates the blue waters of the Aegean Sea.
The video below will give you a flavour of what a Turkish Gulet Cruise is like...
Boarding starts at 15:30. On the first day, our boat will remain anchored in Bodrum Port for dinner and an overnight stay.
After breakfast, you will be informed about the cruise itinerary and the boat. After the customs formalities are completed, we will cruise to Kos Island. You may take a quick swim in Lambi Beach which is very close to Kos Harbour. Kos is one of the islands with the best night life. Nafklirou, a street full of bars, is always crowded, colorful, and full of life.
We will start to cruise early in the morning to Pserimos Island for breakfast and a swimming break. Then we will cruise to the beautiful island of Leros. Leros is a mountainous, green island with high cliffs and many small bays and villages. After lunch and a swimming break in Xerakampos, we will anchor at Lakki Harbour or Agia Marina Port located in the east. You should visit Platanos the main city of Leros with steep stairs, narrow streets, and flower gardens. From Platanos you can take the steps leading up the Castle of Leros climbing 300 steps. Rent a bike or explore this island on foot.
We will cruise to Patmos Island early in the morning. We will have a swimming break in a bay around the island. Patmos is not a big island but it is one of the best known. It was here that St. John completed the last part of ‘The Apocalypse of John’, and this is why Patmos is sometimes called “The Jerusalem of the Aegean”. The Monastery of St. John’s towers above the capital, a village called Chora and actually the whole island breathes of faith and devotion. According to mythology, Patmos was a present from Zeus to his daughter Artemis, goddess of hunting and young women. She was worshipped here in antiquity, and the monastery of St. John was built on her temple. You may have an optional tour to these places. After breakfast, you may have a walk through the monasteries. Our yacht will stay in Patmos Port for dinner and an overnight stay.
We will set sail to Lipsi Island. We will have a swimming break in one of the many small islands in front of Lipsi. On Lipsi Island there are beautiful sandy beaches like Platis and Giolos with their crystal green waters. The capital with its white houses, numerous taverns, cafeterias and restaurants is located in the small natural port. On the island, the Church of the Catopanaghia, constructed in the 7th century deserves a visit along with the Church of Panopanaghia from the 15th century.
We will take a swimming break in a beautiful bay around Kalimnos Island. We are going to enter Pothia Harbour which is the capital of the island. The islanders ensured their livelihood with sponge diving for centuries. There are nice beaches such as Massouri, Mirties and Vlyhadia around the island.
For the customs we will enter the port of Turkey. We will have a swimming break at the beautiful waters of Akvaryum (Aquarium) where you can see the fish swimming below you. We will be staying at Bodrum Harbour for dinner and our final overnight stay.
The guests will leave the boat with precious memories by 10:30 after breakfast.
