Bodrum is the seaside city of lights, one of the most popular harbors to embark on a Turkish yacht charter Mediterranean holiday, and the origin of the famous Turkish blue cruise. These beautiful Mediterranean yacht holidays begin in the Aegean and take place on board  elegantly handcrafted Turkish gullets. They come in all different sizes, level of quality, classic or modern decor, and suit just about every holiday budget.

Starting your gulet charter from Bodrum means that you have a abundance of itineraries to choose from – and if these routes are not what you are looking for, then you can design your own too, with the help of your yacht charter agent. From the Aegean, travelers can visit the many beautiful and charming Greek Islands and cruise in Turkey all the way to the Eastern Mediterranean region of Antalya and further south to the Cretian islands in Greece. But one must keep in mind that Turkish yacht charters travel 4 hours a day. Therefore longer distances mean, longer holiday time to complete the journey – particularly if sailing plays a important role in your travels.

So if your heart is set on a Turkish yacht charter in the Mediterranean, Bodrum is an exciting place to start – since the airport is only 40 minutes away!
