Itinerary
Day 1 – Fethiye to St Nicholas Island
Cast away from Fethiye harbour in the late morning soaking up the sunny climate and vast sea expanding in front of you. Our first stop is Butterfly Valley, named after the famous Tiger Butterfly. Guests can swim to the beach, climb to the waterfall in the steep valley or grab an ice cold drink at the nearby rock bar. After a few hours spent exploring we cruise to Oludeniz. There is the option to paraglide from the nearby mountains on arrival. Time will be spent swimming and snorkelling in the blue lagoon before embarking onto our last destination for the day, St Nicholas Island. We highly recommend grabbing a drink and climbing to the top of St Nicholas Island for a magical sunset prior to dinner. Overnight in St Nicholas Island. (L,D)
Day 2 – St Nicholas Island to Limanagzi Bay
We set off towards Kas as the sun starts to rise, stopping in the aquatic paradise of Aquarium Bay for breakfast and swimming. Scuba diving will be made available as an optional activity as we moor in Kas harbour. Kas is a small fishing village, promoting an array of cafes along the marina – as well as stunning jewellery stores in the back cobbled streets. We will spend a few hours in this divine town and depart for our last stop for the evening, Limanagzi Bay. Watch another sublime sunset before falling asleep to the sound of waves lapping at the gulet by night. (B,L,D)
Day 3 – Limanagzi Bay to Gokkaya Bay
Take advantage of the hot climate and refresh with an early morning swim before we voyage for the region of Kekova. A short cruise past the Sunken City for a look before spending the afternoon exploring the old towns and ruins of Kekova including Simena Castle and Ucagiz Village. In the late afternoon we moor in Gokkaya Bay, occupied with pools of the Caretta Caretta Turtle from the area. A nearby shack bar called Smugglers Inn is nestled in the reeds of this bar, a fishing boat is provided as a complimentary service for anyone that would like to kick up their heels and go for a dance.

Day 4 – Gokkaya Bay to Olympos
After a late last breakfast, our captain will steer the gulet towards Demre harbour with a quick stop along the way to see the Blue Cave. We will pull into Demre harbour in the morning to be transferred to our free shuttle to Olympos. Unfortunately, gulets cannot cruise all the way to Olympos as there is nowhere to get you off the gulet. (B)
