What is a Gulet Cruise:
Gulet cruises, also known as Blue Cruises in Turkey, feature the combination of various activities. Everyday anchor is dropped in a solitary bay or a near a small village and the guests have time for swimming, diving, fishing, snorkelling, windsurfing, landing to visit antique sites where possible or just taking a bath on the deck.
What Should You Take With You?
Remember that you will spend most of your time in your bathing suit. For land trips a pair of long and light trousers, T-Shirt and shoes that can endure stony paths are suggested. At nights you may need pullover or jackets. You may also need bath-towel, sun cream, flippers, goggles and a sleeping bag - if you like to sleep on the deck.
