HIGHLIGHTS :
Two dedicated hiking days follow wild, pine-forested coastal paths connecting bay to bay — luggage travels by gulet, so guests carry only a light daypack. Nights are spent anchored in Sarsala Bay, Bedri Rahmi Bay, and Fethiye Harbour — among the most photogenic overnight stops on the entire Turquoise Coast. This is a sail-and-hike adventure perfectly calibrated for those who want both active exploration and the pure relaxation of life on the water.
Swim through the partially submerged ruins of Cleopatra’s ancient Roman bath house — one of the most atmospheric historical swim stops on the entire Turkish coast — before lacing up boots for a coastal hike to Martı (Seagull) Bay. Trek through pine-scented Lycian countryside on two dedicated hiking days, connecting remote bays that are completely inaccessible by road, with the gulet always waiting at the other end.
