Cruise the Göcek Coastline

Your yacht charter Göcek adventure begins in Turkey’s premier sailing destination, where protected waters and consistent winds create ideal conditions for both novice and experienced sailors. DenizDerin’s modern hull design and powerful sail plan excel in the typical afternoon thermal winds, making exhilarating passages between the famous Twelve Islands. Navigate to Tersane Island, where Byzantine shipyard ruins provide a dramatic backdrop for lunch anchoring, then continue to Bedri Rahmi Bay, named after the Turkish artist whose fish painting adorns the rocks.

The Dufour 470’s impressive performance characteristics shine when sailing the longer passages to Ekincik Bay, gateway to the Dalyan River delta and ancient Caunos. The yacht’s stability and speed allow comfortable exploration of the wider cruising grounds, perhaps venturing to Marmaris for provisioning and nightlife, or seeking solitude in the pristine anchorages around Kadırga Bay. The deep draft provides excellent upwind performance, crucial when returning to Göcek against prevailing winds.

For those preferring gentler explorations, the sheltered waters between Göcek and Fethiye offer countless anchoring opportunities. Discover Sarsala Bay’s restaurant pontoons, perfect for lazy lunches, or find complete solitude in Merdivenli Bay’s turquoise waters. The hydraulic swim platform transforms swimming stops into effortless pleasures, while the included paddleboard opens opportunities for morning exercise or sunset explorations of shallow coves inaccessible to the yacht itself.
