Every charter begins with a blank map and your preference. We do the rest.
The Blue Voyage is not a product. It is a literary inheritance.
In 1939, Turkish author Cevat Şakir Kabaağaçlı — known as Halikarnas Balıkçısı, the Fisherman of Halicarnassus — boarded a wooden caïque with a handful of artists and set sail from Bodrum with no fixed destination, no timetable. Only the coast and the conversation that open water produces.
At Blue Voyage, we have inherited that tradition. Same water. Same question: where does the colour stop?
Wake when you wake. Drop anchor where the colour of the water stops you. No alarms, no programme.
Six thousand years of harbour towns, Byzantine towers, Lycian rock tombs — accessible only from the sea.
Hand-built from Turkish black pine by the craftsmen of Bodrum. Not a vessel — a floating room.
The morning's catch, grilled on deck. Herbs from the last village market. Olive oil from groves above the bay.
Captain, chef, deckhand — three people who know every anchorage on the Turquoise Coast by heart.
Each Blue Voyage begins from Fethiye and traces a different stretch of the Turquoise Coast — a direction, not a fixed itinerary. Below, the five classic routes our captains know by heart.
Like the painter Bedri Rahmi who hid six figures in a single fish carved on a stone in the 1970s, we begin our voyage among the islands and coves of Göcek — discovering history's traces in every shade of blue and the deepest greens.
Plan this route →Enjoy water sports in the Gulf of Göcek, swim at İztuzu Beach where Caretta Caretta turtles lay their eggs, and visit the ancient city of Kaunos by riverboat from Dalyan.
Plan this route →Sail the dramatic Patara coast and the open sea, swimming in hidden coves before visiting Kalkan and the bohemian harbour town of Kaş.
Plan this route →Twelve large and a hundred fifty smaller Greek islands in the Aegean. Even the smallest settlements hold dozens of Byzantine churches and medieval castles — a living archive readable only by sea.
Plan this route →The ancient city of Bozukkale (Loryma) holds a rectangular fortress with nine temples within its walls. The name means "crooked castle" — perhaps because part of its fortifications never stood whole.
Plan this route →Every voyage departs Fethiye — an ancient Lycian harbour town with a market, a castle, and a chain of islands within sight of the quay. What follows is your own.
A Lycian harbour town that has been welcoming sailors since the 5th century BC.
There is no road into Kelebekler Vadisi — only the sea.
The small marina town of Göcek is the gateway to one of the finest sailing grounds on the Turkish coast.
Its name translates as the Dead Sea — a still, enclosed lagoon of saturated blue-green.
St. Nicholas Island rises from the water with five 5th-century Byzantine churches still standing.
For those who sail beyond Fethiye: the Bozburun Peninsula is where the gulets are built.
