The sailing paradise of Bodrum is home to the Blue Voyage from early April until late October. . This idyllic cruise means sailing with the winds, into coves and over the seas and becoming one with nature. It is also an experience of the history of man from the perspective of the sea rather than from the land, a journey which carries you to the private beach of Cleopatra.

Yachting along this coast is a very popular way of spending your holiday, here which happens to be the ancient Halicarnassus. It is ideal for what so called "Mavi Yol" and offers crystal clear waters, sunshine, unspoiled nature, quiet bays and history.

The Sami boats are wooden yachts built in the form of a ketch, locally named Gulet, having more than enough deck space for outdoor living SamiTravel01

Three Gulets build in the best Bodrum tradition, cozy - spacy - and high comfort
M/S SAMI V - 8+ cabins details here
M/S SAMI II - 7 cabins details here
M/S SAMI BEY - 4 cabins details here

These three Sami gulets, from 21-29 meters long, are also very wide, so there is plenty of space below for large cabins, and above for you to sunbathe, sit under the shade of a sun awning and eat outside comfortably around a dining table on the aft deck. 8 - 22 people can be accommodated in double cabins, all with private shower and wc. Even with up to 22 guests the tanks provide plenty of water for hot showers.

Still there is room for a fully equipped galley, where the cook prepares your meals from the freshes local produce. Along the fantastic Southwest Turkish coastline the Sami gulets are available for weekly or longer cruising periods. We can start your itinerary either in Bodrum or Marmaris or Göçek, all up to your wishes.
