🇹🇷 Jahtsadamad: Türgi

South-west Türkiye is one of the Eastern Mediterranean’s most comfortable cruising areas. From Bodrum through Marmaris, Göcek, Fethiye, Kaş and toward Antalya, routes are built around short hops, sheltered gulfs, pine-backed bays and a strong service network.

For a first visit, expect mostly micro-tidal sailing, reliable summer patterns and many natural stopping places. Northerly winds and afternoon breezes shape the day, while some bays need stern lines, careful anchoring or use of mooring buoys. In protected areas such as Göcek and Kekova, local anchoring and access rules matter.

Marina infrastructure is strong in the main hubs, with repair and wintering options that make Türkiye attractive beyond a short charter. The coast suits crews who enjoy anchoring and quiet bays, but still want good technical support and the ability to retreat to a marina when weather or logistics require it.
