The Mediterranean and the Aegean are filled with many of the most desirable Turkish wooden boats we call gulets (or gullets). They line the harbors with their tall masts and present a unique and traditional display of Turkish culture. Bodrum is where the first Turkish gulets first came about, for cruises in Turkey.

They were of course not as they are seen today. Gulets were smaller and not as facilitated.  However since that time, these magnificent gulets ‘evolutionized’ to where they are all now, built even bigger and better.  The Turkish yachts now-a-days, use the finest of woods, while still handcrafted, and equipped with updated technology in navigation, equipment and facilities.

During the year, hundreds of gulet charters are anchored in the colorful harbor of Bodrum, while they await for their new guests to serve yet another great season ahead. Gullets begin to surface in the second half of April.

Among the numerous favorites that usually get booked up quite quickly, and excluding the VIP sailing yachts in Turkey (as they tell a special tale of their own), are the ones that charm, pamper and delight guests every season on their blue cruises in Turkey.
