A Fethiye yacht charter sunset party leaves Fethiye Ece Marina at 17:30, swims off Şövalye Island while the sun is still high, and anchors near Red Island's lighthouse just as it drops behind the islands that enclose the gulf. Drinks are already in hand; dinner from the cook follows as the sky changes colour.
The Gulf of Fethiye faces its sunsets across a ring of islands, and from the water the sky changes for well over an hour. Because the gulf is enclosed, the evening water is flat and the party stays on its feet. Red Island and Şövalye Island are close to town, so the cruise out takes minutes rather than hours. For a longer sunset boat party, the crew can take the boat south to Gemiler Island, the coast's famous sunset anchorage, and return under the stars.

Duration
Fethiye's sunsets are watched from the Çalış promenade by the town and from the water by those on a yacht, and the water wins on quiet. The season runs April to November; from June to September the evenings are warm enough to stay in swimwear until dinner, while in May and October a light layer is needed after dark. Dalaman Airport is about 50 minutes from the marina, so guests can arrive in the afternoon and still make a sunset departure. Fethiye is calm rather than loud, so expect a party on deck, not a floating club.
Booking FAQ
About 90 minutes before sunset, which means around 17:30 in midsummer and earlier in spring and autumn. We give you the exact departure time for your date so the boat is at anchor with drinks served before the light changes.
Yes. The first stop off Şövalye Island is a swim, and the water inside the enclosed gulf stays warm into the evening from June to early October. Towels and a swim ladder are on board.
The gulet's cook prepares dinner or canapés on board to a menu agreed in advance. Drinks can be pre-ordered or brought aboard at Fethiye Ece Marina before departure.
