Luxury & Lifestyle
A Bodrum yacht charter luxury escape starts at Yalıkavak Marina, where a 25 m+ crewed yacht is waiting with the chef on board and the cabins made up. The first night is at anchor off Orak Island in the clearest water in the region, and from there the week divides between the glamorous north coast and the quiet Gulf of Gökova.
Bodrum has Turkey's superyacht marina at Yalıkavak and the crewed fleet to match: luxury yachts of 25 m and more with a chef, a stewardess and a tender, berthed a short cruise from Türkbükü's beach clubs and Gümüşlük's sunset anchorage. Within a day's cruising the same yacht reaches the Gulf of Gökova, where Cleopatra Island and English Harbour offer anchorages with nobody else in sight. The crew handle every detail from provisioning to the tender; you decide only how long to stay in each bay.

Duration
The peninsula and the gulf are two different cruises, and a crewed yacht from Bodrum gives you both. Around Yalıkavak, Türkbükü and Gümüşlük the scene is social and the anchorages busy in July and August; the Gulf of Gökova is green, still and sparsely visited even in peak weeks. The afternoon meltem is normal in summer and the captain plans cruising legs around it, keeping swims to calm mornings. June and September are the months regulars book: same sea, more yachts available and quieter bays.
