Well, one of the most enticing aspects of a Gulet is the size and beautiful layout on deck. Suitable for families and groups, they offer a huge amount of space in which everyone can relax. This can often feel very different to sailboats, for example, such as the confined and smaller nature of these boats.

Furthermore, Gulet’s are equipped with a wide variety of appliances and facilities to add comfort to your stay on board while the performance is never lacking in any department.

Accompanied by favourable weather, watching this coastline change and evolve is such an exciting way to experience the country and the waters in this region are mostly calm by night which usually ensures a peaceful sleep on the Gulet every evening.

Tourism and general infrastructure in Turkey have excelled in recent years but the variety and consistency of attractions in this part of the world are the real draws which bring the tourists. From ancient remnants and historic towns to calm weather and beautiful waters, this is also a dream destination for chartering a yacht, while the Gulet is always present.

When you combine all of the above and consider the opportunity to sail a Gulet through such a spectacular and historically significant destination, the question is unlikely to be whether you should charter a yacht but rather how long can you afford to stay?
