Day 1 Check In: Bodrum – Knidos

How about embarking on a historical journey among the ruins of the ancient city of Knidos? Also known as the "City Where the Seas Meet," the ancient city of Knidos has been a safe haven for sailors throughout its centuries-old history. You can stay here at the 10-boat dock operated by the Datça District Governorship. The dock offers electricity and water connections for a certain fee and allows you to dock on the middle or stern dock on the west side if your boat's waterline is low. We recommend anchoring, considering unpredictable wind conditions, strong meltemi winds, and north winds that increase in strength at night. Since the bay is crowded, boats usually prefer to anchor at around 10-12 meters and stay at anchor. Knidos' North Cove is shallow, and the South Cove is the suitable area for anchoring.

Day 2: Knidos – Palamutbükü

Palamutbuku is the cove with the most settlements on our route. In Palamutbuku, you can find facilities that meet your needs, various restaurants with flavors which appeal to every palate, and markets where you can buy ice and gas. To meet your fresh fruit and vegetable needs, you can visit the neighborhood market that is established on Sundays. Since access by a car is somewhat difficult, the area has remained untouched, and you can anchor at around 6-8 meters and stay at anchor. However, if you plan to stay at anchor, it is useful to know that the bay can experience light breezes, even on windless days.

Day 3: Palamutbükü – Datça

After Palamutbükü, you can move on to Datça, which is a more touristic bay and spend the night there. You can enjoy the touristic richness by mooring at Datça pier; after a peaceful walk on the beach, you can have a pleasant evening in different types of pubs, restaurants, and bistros suitable for every taste.

The harbor located on the north of the peninsula that stretches eastward from Datça is a shallow harbor, and you can anchor in the middle of it at 5-6 meters and stay at anchor. However, if you want to anchor here, you should make sure that weather conditions are suitable.

The southern harbor, which is the main harbor of Datça, has a quay suitable for docking boats of all sizes. While there are areas where you can stay during the tide, you can also explore the small pond and beach located behind the harbor.

Day 4: Datça – Selimiye

You can drop anchor at the mooring point at the end of the bay where the long pier of Selimiye Village is located and start enjoying the beauty of this wide bay.

Selimiye Village offers everything you need with its markets, restaurants, and local shops.

When you enter the cove with the Sığ Burnu on your starboard side, there is a rocky area and a shallowness about 250 meters offshore on the village route. This shallowness, which extends to an area of about 30-40 meters, has a water depth of 1.5 meters on it, although you should be careful even if there is a buoy.

Day 5: Selimiye - Bozukkale

Bozukkale Bay is a bay where you can be one with nature, accompanied by partly naked mountains. You can tie your boat to the piers of the three restaurants here and enjoy fresh fish caught from the crystal-clear waters of Bozukkale. You can reach the Loryma walls by hiking on a dirt path and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the unique view of the open sea and the historical walls of Rhodes Island.

Day 6: Bozukkale - Ekincik (nehir turu )

Located in the middle of a fantastic 900-meter beach, covered with pine trees, Ekincik is nestled between high mountains to the north of Köyceğiz harbor. You can visit the mooring and shelter places in Ekincik Harbor and enjoy the sea, sun, and nature.

Here is a surprise waiting for you as well; if you have safely anchored your boat, you can take a pedestrian boat to Dalyan, one of the most beautiful places in the world. For this 3.5-hour boat tour, you can communicate with the pedestrian boats via VHF channel 06 - 16.

If you want to protect your boat from the winds, you can anchor it on the ground mixed with noodle sand at 5-10 meters in the northwest of Ekincik Harbor. However, you can anchor at almost any point inside Ekincik Harbor. But if you plan to go to Dalyan, we recommend that you anchor on the more sheltered northwest side.

Day 7 : Ekincik – Göcek Adası - Göcek Check Out

Many boats can take shelter in the bay where the depth varies. In Göcek, where the scent of pine trees mixes with the unique and enticing smell of the sea, you will have an amazing end to your boat vacation. After this enchanting experience, we will meet you at the marina, which is the delivery point of your boat.

Hope to see you again on new adventures...
