The Mooringsone of the largest international yacht charter companies, is expanding its programme in the eastern Mediterranean for the 2026 summer season: After a long absence, the Gulf of Fethiye in south-west Turkey is back in the programme.
Manageable distances
The compact area on the eastern edge of the Aegean is characterised by nature and offers well-protected bays and several offshore islands. At its entrance, the width of the gulf is just seven nautical miles, while the depth is around eight. The distances on the mostly calm waters are therefore very manageable and ensure relaxed, short day trips with largely uncomplicated navigation.
Catamarans with sail or motor
From the base in Fethiye (around 200 kilometres southwest of Antalya and its international airport), two sailing catamarans, TM 4600-5 and TM 5200-6, as well as a TM 464PC Powercat - with and without skipper - are available. The boats are designed for crews of eight to twelve people.
Attractions include numerous archaeological sites on land as well as the cliffs near the island of Gemiler and the Blue Lagoon near Ölüdeniz. Fethiye itself combines modern yachting infrastructure with ancient ruins and lively local Turkish culture.
