Antalya Yacht & Boat Tour Guide 2026: Gulet Cruises, Private Charters & Transfer
Traditional Turkish gulet yacht in turquoise bay surrounded by pine-covered cliffs
The Turkish coastline was MADE for boat trips — hidden coves inaccessible by road, ancient ruins rising from the waterline, crystal lagoons that make the Caribbean jealous, and traditional wooden gulets that are floating works of art. From half-day pirate tours to week-long blue cruises, this guide maps every boat experience on the Antalya Riviera.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do boat trips include food and drinks?
Most full-day group trips include a BBQ lunch (chicken + fish + salad) and unlimited soft drinks. Alcohol is extra (€3-5 for beer from the boat bar). Private charters usually include everything.
Can I get seasick?
The Mediterranean is generally calm (especially June-September). Coastal boat trips stay close to shore in sheltered bays. If prone to seasickness, take medication 30 minutes before boarding and sit in fresh air.
What should I bring on a boat trip?
Sunscreen (reef-safe), swimsuit, towel (some provided), cash for drinks/photos, waterproof phone case, hat. Leave valuables at hotel.
