Yacht charter Turkish Riviera spans one of the Mediterranean’s most celebrated cruising corridors – roughly 600 kilometres of coastline arcing from the Aegean headlands near Bodrum south-east past Marmaris, Göcek, and Fethiye to the ancient harbour of Antalya, with Lycian ruins, hidden waterfalls, and luminous swimming coves punctuating every passage. The region draws from Turkey’s 128+ charter fleet, offering 68′–98′ motor yachts, 100′+ superyachts, 55′+ luxury catamarans, and the iconic 90′–115′+ gulets whose handcrafted wooden hulls are synonymous with this stretch of coast. June through September is peak season, with 30–35°C air, 27°C seas, and the reliable Aegean breeze adding energy to every sailing leg; May and October are prized shoulder months delivering 25°C sunshine, emptier anchorages, and pricing that can soften by up to 20%. Daily rates range from $3,500/day for a well-appointed motor yacht to $15,000+/day on a superyacht, plus 20% Turkish VAT and 30–35% APA for fuel, provisions, and marina fees. The Riviera’s unmatched appeal is sheer variety – within a single week you can snorkel above the sunken city at Kekova, feast on grilled octopus at a Bozburun taverna, paraglide above Ölüdeniz, and anchor in the mirror-still waters of Göcek’s Twelve Islands, each day more distinct than the last.

Above you’ll find yachts available for Turkish Riviera charters from the country’s 128+ vessel fleet – motor yachts from 68′, superyachts over 100′, catamarans from 55′, and gulets of 90′–115′+. Weekly rates start from approximately $24,500. Use the filters to sort by type, guest capacity, length, or rate, then connect with Boatcrowd’s charter specialists for personalised itinerary design across multiple ports, seamless provisioning, and expert guidance on the best seasonal routing.
For peak summer departures between June and September, six to nine months’ lead time is strongly recommended – the finest gulets and superyachts are often reserved a full year ahead. The shoulder months of May and October deliver superb conditions with broader availability and can typically be secured three to four months in advance, sometimes with attractive repositioning discounts.
The base rate covers the yacht, professional crew, insurance, and standard on-board equipment including the tender and basic water toys. Fuel, food, beverages, marina fees, and premium water sports are funded through the APA (30–35% of the charter fee). Turkish VAT at 20% applies to the base rate, and any unused APA is refunded in full at the end of the charter.
Yes – and it’s one of the eastern Med’s most rewarding cross-border itineraries. Popular routings pair Turkey’s Bodrum or Marmaris coast with nearby Greek islands such as Kos, Rhodes, and Symi, adding Aegean island charm and a different culinary tradition to the voyage. Your Boatcrowd broker handles all customs clearance, Greek port-authority formalities, and berthing arrangements for a seamless transition.
A gulet is a traditional Turkish wooden motorsailer, typically 90′–115′+, with a broad beam, shaded aft deck, and handcrafted interiors that lend a warm, artisanal feel quite unlike a modern motor yacht. Gulets cruise at a relaxed 8–10 knots and excel at coastal itineraries where communal dining on deck, unhurried anchorage stops, and immersion in the landscape matter most. They are especially popular with multi-generational families and friend groups of 8–16 guests.
