This Kemer blue cruise is a week-long gulet trip for travellers who want history and swimming in equal measure: you board in Kemer on Saturday afternoon, sail west along the Lycian coast for eight days and seven nights, and come back to Kemer at the end. Cabins are private (double, twin or triple) and air-conditioned, each with its own bathroom.
On the way you walk into the overgrown ruins of Olympos behind its beach, spend a night at Adrasan, call at Demre with the option of visiting Myra and the Church of St Nicholas, glide slowly over the Sunken City of Kekova, climb to the castle above Simena and finish at Phaselis, an ancient harbour town with three harbours, aqueducts, baths, a theatre and Hadrian’s Gate.
There is time to swim every day in bays such as Gökkaya, Kekova, Adrasan and Üçağız, where turtles are often seen, and to relax on sunbeds or in the shade on deck.

Check in during the afternoon at Kemer marina or in a nearby bay, meet the crew and your fellow guests, and settle in. Dinner is served on board.
After breakfast the gulet sails to Olympos. Lunch is served here and you have time to swim and to go ashore into the national park, where the ancient city lies overgrown and barely excavated just behind the beach. In the late afternoon the boat moves on to Adrasan and Çavuş Bay for dinner and the night.
An early sail brings you to Demre. After breakfast at Çayağzı you can join an optional excursion to the ancient city of Myra, with its Lycian rock tombs and theatre, and the Church of St Nicholas, where the saint was bishop in the 4th century. The afternoon is spent swimming at Gökkaya Bay, where water sports are also offered. Overnight at Gökkaya Bay.
After breakfast the gulet cruises slowly over the Sunken City, the remains of a Lycian town about 2,000 years old that was destroyed by an earthquake. It is a protected site, so swimming, diving and snorkelling are not allowed there. Lunch and a swim follow at Tersane Bay. If you wish, you can join the optional all-day Kaş Saklıkent excursion, which includes lunch and returns before dinner. Overnight at Üçağız Bay.
After breakfast in Üçağız the gulet crosses to Simena, where you can walk up to the castle for a view over the bay. Overnight in Kekova.
An early sail to Porto Ceneviz or Sazak Bay, quiet bays with cliffs dropping straight into the sea. After lunch the gulet anchors at Phaselis Bay; you can walk around the ancient town by the shore and see its three harbours, aqueducts, baths, theatre, Hadrian's Gate and acropolis. Overnight at Phaselis Cove.
