Day 2:
Arabian Island - Bozukkale (Loryma
)
While you have a breakfast, you
will be informed about the
cruise programme and then we
will set sail for the Arabian
Peninsula. The night will be
spent in Bozukkale. In the
historical city Bozukkale (Loryma),
there is a castle which
strectches out in a rectangle
with its city walls and 9
temples. The name Bozukkale
means 'crooked castle' and might
be associated with the fact that
one side of the castle is
missing. Because of its
geographical situation and the
narrow port entrance, the port
was also used by the Greek navy
forces during the Pelepones Sea
Battle. Karor, the Commander of
Atina gathered all his ships
here before the Cnidus War in
395 B.C., and Demetrios; the son
of Antigonos used this port for
the preparations before
attacking Rhodes in 305 B.C.
Day 3:
Datça
After the breakfast we will
hoist sail to Datça. Food and
water are supplied for the boat.
The city was founded by the Dors
who came from Aegean Sea to the
southern coast of Ionia in the
7th century B.C. The island has
no humidity at all and has fresh
air with plenty of oxygen. The
historian Strabon has a rightful
saying about Datça's weather: "God
would send his beloved servants
to Datça to live longer".
According to a myth while the
Spanish pirates were passing by
the coast of Datca, they
disembarked people with Hansen's
disease in Sarıliman Bay and
these abandoned people recovered
from their disease with the help
of the clean weather of Datça.
You can explore Datça yourself
or join the optional city tour.
For dinner and overnight stay we
will anchor in Datça or at a
nearby bay.
Day 4:
Aktur - Bencik
After breakfast we will set sail
for Aktur. Then our first stop
will be the Bencik Bay; which
has a very narrow entrance but a
unique view once you get inside.
Bencik is located at the
narrowest part of the peninsula
that divides Hisarönü Gulf from
the Gökova Gulf but it is closer
to Hisaronu. In 550s B.C. the
Cnidus people wanted to dig a
tunnel in the narrowest land
piece of the peninsula between
the Hisarönü Gulf and the Gökova
Gulf as a defence line against
the Persians. That way they
would make two peninsulas one
island and the defense easier.
They started with diligence and
put a lot of effort; however, in
the end they could not manage
and the city was conquered by
the Persians. Dinner and
overnight stay will be at Bencik
Bay.

safari in Orhaniye. In Orhaniye
Bay, you will see a unique
scenery of a natural tidal
formation called 'kız kumu' (Maiden's
Beach). There are so many myths
about this reddish sand-path
going from the shore to the
inner parts of the sea. On a
tiny island located in the bay,
you can see the wrecks of an
antique castle, a sign of an
ancient city.

Dirsekbükü - Bozburun
After anhoring in Dirsekbükü, we

a small fishing town.This area
was popular and suitable for
sponge-diving but nowadays the
people of the island are no more
interested in sponge-diving as
it is not worthy and is
dangerous. In the last years
sponge-diving is replaced by
gulet tourism and Bozburun
Gulets nowadays could take its
place in this sector.
