1 Blue Cruises...the perfect way to explore Turkey s fabulous south coast. The area between Antalya and Marmaris is one of the most varied stretches of coastline in the Mediterranean and the landscape here is truly stunning: pine forests, secluded bays, orange plantations and olive groves abound. Add to that the craggy peaks of the Taurus foothills and long, sandy beaches and it is hard to deny that this really is an area of great natural beauty just waiting to be explored. It is always worth going ashore to visit the delightful tiny fishing villages around here and there is no shortage of other picturesque and historic locations every one of them well worth a visit. The traditional wooden boats (known as gulets) found here - for centuries built mainly around Bodrum and Bozburun - were originally used as trading vessels or by sponge divers. These days they offer tourists a great way to enjoy a relaxing holiday in fabulous surroundings. Our boats are crewed by a captain, a skipper and a cook, all of whom work hard around the clock to ensure that our guests enjoy a really comfortable and enjoyable holiday experience. With breathtaking scenery and the fabulous turquoise sea, a boat trip with Blue Cruises is a truly memorable experience. Tel / , info@hidden-turkey.com Seite 1

2 Itineraries For those fully-chartering one of our boats, we offer various itineraries. On request we can also help you put together an individual itinerary to suit your own requirements. Our favourite itinerary is Route 1, which takes in the most beautiful section of coast in the whole of Turkey - the Lycian coast between Kalkan and Myra. Here you will find fragrant pine forests, sunken cities, Lycian sarcophagi out in the sea and any number of tiny bays and picturesque fishing villages. In all, a totally unspoilt part of the world where a friendly welcome from the locals comes as standard. Tours 2 and 3 take you to the Gulfs of Göcek and Fethiye with their numerous bays and tiny islands. If you prefer a different route, we can organise this with you. Of course, there is also the option of a14-day Blue Cruise, which allows you to combine the different routes. Embarkation Saturday afternoon, disembarkation Saturday 9am.
