Romance & Special Occasions
A Fethiye yacht charter birthday party is a full day on the 12 Islands route: boarding at Fethiye Ece Marina at 10:00, a first swim at Şövalye Island, lunch from the on-board cook anchored off Yassıca Islands, and the cake brought up on deck at Cleopatra's Bath while everyone is still dripping from the water.
Fethiye's gulf is enclosed by islands, so a group of up to 12 spends the day on flat water where nobody feels queasy and children can swim off the stern. A gulet has the deck space for a long lunch and a cook to serve it, so the birthday runs without anyone leaving to fetch food. The 12 Islands route puts a new swim stop every hour, which keeps a mixed group of ages busy without any planning on your side.

Duration
Fethiye is a calm coast, so a birthday on a yacht here is about swimming, eating well and a long lunch rather than a floating club. For the evening, the Paspatur old bazaar in town has bars and live music, and Hisarönü above Ölüdeniz has clubs if the group wants to carry on. Dalaman Airport is about 50 minutes from Fethiye, so guests flying in for the day can make a morning departure. The season runs April to November; May, June and September are comfortable for a full day on deck.
Booking FAQ
Day cruises take up to 12 guests on one gulet. For an overnight birthday, the cabin count sets the limit, typically 4–10 guests. Larger groups can be split across two gulets cruising the 12 Islands route together.
Yes. You can bring cake and drinks aboard at Fethiye Ece Marina, or ask the cook to prepare the cake on board. Lunch is prepared by the crew in any case, and we confirm the menu with you before the day.
Very much so. The Gulf of Fethiye is enclosed and calm, the swim stops at Cleopatra's Bath and Yassıca Islands are shallow and clear, and the crew keeps an eye on the ladder. Life jackets for children are on board.
