We will sail along the beautiful turquoise coast of the Turkish Riviera, exploring and living the luxurious ease of life at sea. We will also make various stops along the way to visit interesting villages, see magical ruins, and take time to enjoy a swim in the crystal clear waters of the Mediterranean. On the final day we will arrive in Marmaris where we disembark. A city known for the courted romance of Mark Antony and Cleopatra, over the years, Marmaris has developed from a small fishing village into a lovely respite area for the yachting set. In the late afternoon, we will check into the hotel, and enjoy the hot mineral pool.
Dinner is at the hotel.
In the morning we will visit the snow-like travertines of calcium for which Pamukkale is famous. This is an area with strikingly beautiful mineral springs clinging to the hillside. We will then proceed to Aphrodisias, the ancient city named in honor of the Roman deity Aphrodite, goddess of love. This settlement dates back seven thousand years. Once an important artistic center, many ruins remain, including a colonnaded avenue, stadium, theater, baths, and shrines.
