The first stop is Karemlik Bay, where they may swim alongside Caretta Caretta sea turtles in their natural habitat. With untouched coastal scenery all around, the atmosphere encourages presence and calm. The day ends in Camlik Bay with a welcome circle and the first yoga on the boat — a gentle sunset session on deck followed by dinner under the stars.

Which ports can I join the yoga cruise from?
You can join the cruise from several ports along the Turkish Riviera, depending on your travel plans. Common departure points include Kemer, Çıralı, Olympos, Demre, Kaş, Kalkan, Fethiye, Bodrum, and Marmaris. We’re flexible — let us know what works best for you and we’ll tailor the starting point accordingly.
Can I get more information about the yoga sessions?
Our yoga sessions are led by experienced instructors and tailored to suit all levels, from beginners to regular practitioners. Each day includes two sessions — typically a gentle flow or meditation at sunrise, and a restorative or grounding practice at sunset. Mats and props are provided on board, and the exact schedule may vary depending on the weather and the group’s needs. Let us know in advance if you have any specific preferences or physical considerations.
Do I need prior yoga experience to join this cruise?
Not at all! Whether you’re completely new or a regular practitioner, the cruise is designed to be inclusive. You’ll be supported at every step.
Will there be a yoga instructor on board, or can I bring my own?
We can provide a certified yoga instructor for your cruise upon request. If you already have your own teacher you’d like to bring along, that’s absolutely possible too. Just let us know your preference in advance, and we’ll tailor the setup to match your needs.
What type of yoga will be practiced during the cruise?
We focus on a mix of gentle Hatha, Vinyasa flow, and restorative yoga, depending on the time of day. Morning sessions are energizing, while evening classes help you unwind. Sessions are designed to fit all levels.
Will yoga equipment be provided on the boat?
Yes, we provide high-quality mats and basic props. You’re welcome to bring your own mat if preferred.
Is the yoga space on the deck private and calm?
We anchor in peaceful bays, and sessions are held on the upper deck — open to nature but away from distractions. It’s a perfect blend of serenity and scenic beauty.
Can the schedule be adjusted if I want to skip a session or sleep in?
Of course. The yoga program is flexible — it’s your vacation, after all. You can join as many or as few sessions as you like.
Where does the journey begin and end?
The journey typically begins and ends at the same port you choose during booking. While it’s possible to finish at a different location, most cruises are planned as round-trips starting and ending at the same port — this helps us keep the yacht ready for the next guests during the busy season. We recommend selecting both departure and return from the same port for the smoothest experience, but feel free to share your travel needs with us.
What are the cabin arrangements like?
Couples are assigned their own private cabins. For solo travelers, cabin arrangements may vary, and you could be placed in a twin, double, triple, or quad cabin, depending on the group composition.
Can I upgrade to a better cabin?
This is a closed group tour, and cabin selection is entirely based on the preferences within the group. Cabins will be shared among the group members.
Is it possible to change my departure date?
Yes, it is possible to change your departure date based on availability. A minor fee will be charged, and if the new date has a higher cost, you’ll need to cover the difference. Alternatively, you can transfer the amount you’ve already paid to another trip of equal or greater value, as long as it’s outside the notification period.
What type of boats are used for the sailing trips?
All of our boats are traditional gulet yachts, handcrafted in Southern Turkey. These two or three-masted sailing yachts are fully equipped with ensuite cabins, a professional kitchen, dining spaces, and deck mattresses for those who wish to sleep under the stars.
Will there be enough space for my luggage?
For your comfort and ease of movement inside the cabin, we suggest bringing a small or medium-sized suitcase or backpack.
Am I allowed to bring my own alcohol on board?
Boat licensing regulations prohibit bringing your own alcohol on board. However, reasonably priced drinks can be purchased on the boat using a tab system, which must be settled on the day of check-out. Additionally, there is a “corkage fee” option in the services section. Those who wish to bring their own alcohol can select this option, and only the designated individuals will be allowed to bring alcohol on board.
What meals are included during the trip?
All of our gulet cruises include a traditional Turkish breakfast, a vegetarian lunch, afternoon tea, and dinner as part of the package.
Upon request, we can accommodate Jain, Vegetarian, Vegan, Halal, and Kosher dietary preferences.
You’re welcome to bring additional snacks for the trip. Drinks are available for purchase on board using a tab system, which is payable on the day of disembarkation.
Can I bring my own snacks and beverages on the boat?
Unfortunately, bringing your own drinks (including water) on board is not permitted. However, you’re welcome to bring snacks like peanuts, chips, cookies, and similar items.
Can I settle my bar bill using a credit card?
Bar Payments:
Please note that bar expenses must be paid in cash on the last day of the trip. Since ATMs may not be available at all ports, it’s a good idea to plan ahead. However, there’s no need to worry about withdrawing cash before the trip, as ATMs will be accessible in Kas Port town on the second day of the journey.
Are there power sockets available on the boat?
Some boats are equipped with power sockets in the cabins, while others have them only in the common salon area. These sockets are functional when the engine or generator is running.
Will towels be provided on board?
Beach Towels Not Provided:
Beach towels are not supplied on board, so we kindly ask guests to bring their own for beach use. Bath towels are available but are not intended for use at the beach. If needed, towels can be easily purchased from shops in towns across Turkey.
Are there any limits on air conditioning use?
Air Conditioning Usage:
Gulet boats have limited energy capacity, so air conditioning is typically used for 4-6 hours daily to conserve fuel and maintain efficiency. This also helps protect the generator and supports eco-friendly practices by encouraging natural ventilation. Running the generator overnight can be noisy and may disturb other guests, so finding a balance between comfort and sustainability is essential.
