Itinerary

Day 1 · Olympos-Demre to Gokkaya Bay

Olympos

one hour

Around 10:30 am, our ground crew will collect you from your Bayram's Tree House in Olympos. We will have another pickup from Olympos Junction at 10:45 am. We will set off by land to Demre, where we will do another pickup at 12:30 at Demre bus station. All guests will then be transferred to Ucagiz Village harbor. We will check in with the gulet and brief you about your cruise. Lunch will be served shortly afterward.

Our first sight for the day is the Sunken City, an ancient town that dates back 2000 years to the Lycian period and was destroyed by an earthquake in the 2nd century. We will cruise over this protected World Heritage site in a friendly manner and slowly enjoy the view; however, as this is a protected site, no swimming, diving, or snorkeling is allowed. Following this, we will anchor down near Kekova and the island of Kalekoy to visit Simena Castle.

Day 3 · Kas to St. Nicholas Island

Butterfly Valley

3 hours Admission not included

This morning wake up to the vivid blue sea and find yourself in Butterfly Valley. Wake yourself up with a morning swim, have breakfast, and then take the optional hike to the waterfall. Butterfly Valley is known to be the home to over 136 different types of butterflies and moths; in the summer months, they can be challenging to spot, though, as they search for cooler climates deeper in the valley.
Oludeniz

3 hours

For lunch, we will moor near the Blue Lagoon in Oludeniz. There is much swimming here, and most venture into the Blue Lagoon over the rocks. Oludeniz Beach and the Blue Lagoon are among the most photographic beaches in the world due to the thousands that paraglide here each year.
Gemiler Island

18 hours Admission not included

We will moor at St Nicholas Island, where you will have time to walk through the island's ruins and enjoy the sunset. Watch for the watersport boats around this area for an afternoon of fun on the water!
