Itinerary
Day 1
Pickup and transfer to Alanya Shipyard (Tersane Sk. No:9)
Private pickup from your Alanya accommodation in an air-conditioned vehicle and short transfer to the boarding point at Alanya shipyard (Tersane). Driver will assist with luggage and boarding directions.
Tips from local experts:
- Have a photo ID ready for the driver at pickup and for quick check-in at the marina.
- Confirm your hotel name and room number with the operator the evening before to ensure timely pickup.
- Keep a light jacket or shawl handy—sea breezes can be cooler than on land, even in summer.
Boarding at Alanya Shipyard & brief safety briefing
Board your private yacht at the shipyard. Crew will provide a short safety briefing, show lifejackets and outline the planned route along the Alanya coastline.
Tips from local experts:
- Wear non-slip, flat-soled shoes for safe boarding on the dock and yacht.
- Store valuables in a small waterproof bag—crew can advise where to stow items during the cruise.
- If you prefer a quieter, romantic spot, request seating at the stern away from the engine area.
Private yacht cruise: Red Tower, Alanya Castle and coastal caves
Cruise along the coastline to view Kızılkule (Red Tower), the Seljuk shipyard, and Alanya Castle from the sea. Continue to the waters near Pirates' Cave, Lovers' Cave and the phosphorescent cave areas; short stops for photo opportunities and optional swims (weather permitting).
Tips from local experts:
- Bring sunscreen and a hat—shade on deck is limited during midday cruises.
- If you get seasick, take motion-sickness medication at least 30–45 minutes before boarding.
- For swim stops, keep towels and a thin change of clothes easily accessible in a small bag.
Return to Alanya and private drop-off
Cruise back toward the harbor, disembark at the shipyard/piers, and transfer by private vehicle back to your Alanya accommodation. Afternoon guests receive dinner as included.
Tips from local experts:
- Have your accommodation address ready for the driver to ensure the most direct drop-off.
- Allow a few minutes on disembarkation for the crew to assist if you need help stepping onto the dock.
- If you requested dinner for an afternoon pickup, check with the crew about the timing and meeting point before disembarking.
