Romance & Special Occasions
A Bodrum yacht charter engagement party starts at Yalıkavak Marina in the early afternoon, with up to twelve of your closest people boarding a 20–25 m motor yacht beside the superyachts. You cruise to Türkbükü for a swim off the beach club jetties, then west to Gümüşlük, where the engagement toast happens at anchor as the sun drops behind Rabbit Island.
An engagement party on a yacht in Bodrum is a rehearsal for the wedding without the formality. The peninsula's north coast gives you Yalıkavak Marina with its lounges and restaurants for the meeting point, Türkbükü for an afternoon with music on the sound system and the tender running to the jetties, and Gümüşlük for a sunset that photographs beautifully. Day yachts take up to 12 guests; for a larger celebration a 25 m+ crewed yacht with chef hosts a full engagement dinner at anchor.

Duration
Bodrum's north coast is at its most glamorous in July and August, when Türkbükü's beach clubs run DJ afternoons and Yalıkavak Marina is full. The afternoon meltem is a factor on this side of the peninsula, so the captain chooses the calmest spot off the jetties and moves west to Gümüşlük for the sheltered sunset anchorage. June and September give the same scene with more yachts available and easier bookings at the clubs. Guests flying in reach the marinas from Milas-Bodrum Airport in about 45 minutes.
Booking FAQ
Motor yachts of 15–25 m take up to 12 guests on a day or evening charter. For a larger engagement party we book two yachts that anchor together off Türkbükü and Gümüşlük, or a 25 m+ crewed yacht for a seated dinner.
Yes. The yacht anchors off the jetties and the tender runs your guests ashore. We reserve sunbeds or a table at the beach club for the afternoon, and everyone is back on board for the cruise to Gümüşlük and the sunset toast.
No. Tell us what you want and we have drinks, flowers and any decorations on board at Yalıkavak Marina before your guests arrive. Canapés or a full dinner can be arranged through the yacht's crew or a caterer at the marina.
