Departure point
Antalya is the largest city on this coast and its busiest marina hub. Most day boats leave from the old harbour below Kaleiçi, a basin that has sheltered shipping since the city was founded in the second century BC and today holds around a hundred vessels, most of them tour boats. Bay cruises pass the Lower Düden waterfall, which drops some forty metres off the cliffs straight into the sea, and longer days run out to Suluada island — the one everyone calls the Turkish Maldives.
Charter your own yacht along Antalya's turquoise coast, with the captain anchoring wherever the swimming is best and lunch served on deck. No crowds, no fixed schedule, just your group and the open sea.
Cruise the mirror-still, jade-green waters of the Oymapınar reservoir, dive into cool mountain coves, and lunch on deck beneath the pine-clad cliffs of the Taurus range.
Trade the beach for the mountains on a full-day cruise across the emerald reservoir behind Turkey's soaring Oymapınar Dam, with a swim stop and lakeside grilled lunch.
Sail from Adrasan to Suluada, the uninhabited island with powder-white sand and glass-clear water that locals call the Maldives of Turkey. A full day of swimming, snorkelling and a grilled lunch on deck.
Cruise the emerald waters of Oymapinar Lake beneath towering pine cliffs, swim in crystal-clear coves, and feast on a lakeside buffet lunch. Hotel pickup included.
A full-day boat trip on the Green Canyon lake behind the Oymapınar Dam: emerald mountain water, swimming stops, a lakeside lunch and free fishing, with hotel transfer from Side, Manavgat and Alanya. Instant confirmation — you pay on the boat on tour day.
Private motor yacht charter in Side with captain and crew for up to 25 guests: about 6 hours of cruising, swimming stops in calm bays and lunch or dinner on board — with an optional sunset return.
Full-day boat trip to Suluada, the "Maldives of Turkey": white pebble beach, glass-clear turquoise coves, swimming stops and lunch on board. Morning hotel pickup, afternoon return.
Sail out of Antalya harbour and drop beneath the Mediterranean for two guided boat dives, with full gear, PADI instructors and a hot lunch on deck. Perfect for curious first-timers and certified divers alike.
Slip beneath the warm, glass-clear Mediterranean on a boat-based diving day from Kumköy, with two guided dives, a certified instructor and full gear included. No experience needed.
Sail the turquoise Mediterranean straight from Kumköy, swim in crystal-clear coves, and enjoy lunch on deck with music and foam-party fun on the way back.
Hotel pickup can be arranged from Antalya and the surrounding resorts — the exact time is confirmed the day before and varies from hotel to hotel.
No prepayment: you reserve online in minutes and pay on the tour day.
Instant confirmation, with free cancellation up to 24 hours before your tour.
Turkish marine-tourism rules require every licensed day-trip boat to carry a life jacket for each person on board, with children's jackets kept separately in a clearly marked, easy-to-reach place. Ask the crew where yours is before you leave the jetty.
Swimming weather on this coast runs from roughly May to November. When a storm builds, the harbourmaster can restrict traffic for the whole port, so a captain who calls a sailing off is following the port authority, not the app on your phone. Dolphins are wild here: every trip is a chance to see them, never a promise.
Compare every departure on the boat tours page, take the whole deck for your own group with a private yacht charter, or read our travel guides for what to pack and which trip suits small children.
Antalya currently serves 11 boat trips — from canyon lake cruises to pirate boats, island tours and private yachts. See the full list above.
A hotel transfer can usually be arranged with your booking. Because pickup follows a route, the exact time is confirmed the day before and varies from hotel to hotel.
