Please relax, all of the sailing is done for you by the dedicated crew, you enjoy the scenery.

ITINERARIES AND EXCURSIONS

When aboard one of our comfortable gulets on your one or two-week sailing cruise you will sail in the warm turquoise waters off the Turkish coast, going from one pretty bay to another tranquil cove, peacefully enjoying this beautiful area. The coastline here is a mixture of beaches, bays, villages and towns and uninhabited islands. Nature here is still largely unspoilt with pine-trees and olive trees dotting the landscape.

Although Flaka Sailing Cruises are leisure cruises you can make your day as energetic or as relaxing as desired. One day you may decide to visit a small fishing village and the next day to read a book while sipping a drink and sunning on deck. When you feel more energetic you can go swimming or snorkelling amid schools of fish or visit a nearby archeological site. Every morning after breakfast your captain gives you full details about the route and he presents you with a range of possibilities for that day, all depending on the weather of course. Please feel free to make any suggestions.

Our guests have comment:
Take off your watch and become temporarily timeless, get away from the crowd, listen to nature, sleep outside on deck; The sun will wake you up, take a plunge before breakfast, eat healthy food, getting spoiled, feel like a king, make friends for life, learn the tricks of sailing, get a great deep tan, listen to the wind and the waves, get gently rocked to sleep, feel good and relaxed, dress casually, really know my team members, no fixed itinerary.
