Blue Voyage
Blue Voyage or Blue Cruise ("Mavi Yolculuk" in Turkish) is a term commonly used for recreational sea cruises. With countless coves, inlets, bays and beaches, Turkey’s shores offer a splendid environment for an enjoyable Blue Voyage. Sailing and cruising in the Aegean and the Mediterranean Sea provide great opportunities for swimming, fishing, skiing, surfing, diving and exploring ancient ruins and the beautiful countryside.
The Blue Voyage tour cruises along the attractive southwest Mediterranean and Aegean shores of Turkey. Travellers sail along the Southwest Turkish coast through crystal clear waters into quiet bays, the harbours of small villages and many historic places. The Blue Voyage offers the best possible escape on the water: a means of forgetting your everyday life for a while and just letting go of time. A Blue Voyage often departs from Bodrum and usually terminates in the port of Antalya. The voyage takes approximately one week and is usually organised between May and October.
Between the end of July and the beginning of September, Turkey is extra busy with the height of summer bringing thousands of tourists to the coastal regions. During July and August, days are long 
and hot, and the nights are warm. June and September, with warm days and cool evenings, offer a better combination for a visit. The water can be especially warm at some places in September. The months of May and October offer excellent sailing conditions and the opportunity to go trekking or fishing.
A Blue Voyage also offers you the chance to visit many historical places located close to the shore. Among the first places to be seen: Karaada, Kargac›k Buku, Pabuc Burnu, Kargi Adasi, Alakisla and Cokertme. Besides these natural attractions, historic sites such as Sedir Island, the ancient city of Keramos and Yedi Adalar, are frequent stops.
