GULF OF GOKOVA - A TYPICAL ONE-WEEK CRUISE
this is the itinerary we suggest
· DAY 1 Leave Bodrum harbour; lunch at Orak Island, a good snorkelling spot due to good underwater visibility;
overnight anchorage at Küsrebükü, a quiet, uninhabited bay.
· DAY 2 Across the gulf of Gökova in the early morning to Seven Islands for lunch
and overnight stay, and a chance to walk in the stunning pine forests.
· DAY 3 Lunch at Longöz, a tranquil pine-clad inlet, where local honey is produced and sold; overnight
at English Harbour, where British torpedo-boats sheltered in World War 1.
· DAY 4 Lunch at Cleopatra's Island, with crystal-clear waters and white sands, the latter a legendary wedding
gift from Mark Anthony to Cleopatra; a chance to explore the historical ruins on the island, including a small
amphitheatre; overnight at Karacasögüt, to replenish supplies and offering an evening out in nearby Marmaris.
· DAY 5 Lunch at Balli Sutasi; barbecue and anchor overnight at Tuzla.
· DAY 6 Return across the gulf to Çökertme, and an opportunity to have dinner on land (extra).
· DAY 7 Lunch at Yaliçiftlik; a swim in the hot spring at Black Island, then on to Bodrum, arriving
late afternoon.
Please note that this is only a rough guide and can be varied to suit requirements. Also note that the route may
vary slightly, depending on weather conditions and time available, at the Captain's discretion.
