Turkey | Greece Flotilla Sailing Vacation

Overview

Set sail from Sunsail’s base in Turgutreis, near historic Bodrum, on a sociable two-country flotilla vacation that takes a route around the Dodecanese Islands, visiting both Turkey and Greece. 

Starting off on the coast of mainland Turkey, this flotilla stops at picturesque fishing villages with casual restaurants serving the freshest of local fish and allows you to drop anchor at secluded inlets that are perfect for an afternoon’s relaxation. 

There are Byzantine forts and natural hot water pools to explore before you head for the Greek islands of Kos, Nisiros, Tilo and Simi – by turn bustling, volcanic, historic and elegant.

Sailing on a Two-Country Flotilla

The two-country flotilla vacation visiting Turkey and Greece is best suited to more advanced sailors who will enjoy the superb sailing conditions prevailing in the sailing area. 

Navigation is mainly line-of-sight with some longer passages of over 30 miles. In summer, temperatures can reach 90 F (32 C), making the cooling sea breezes most welcome.

Winds are north-westerly and generally stronger in the afternoons, in the range of 10 to 25 knots (11 - 29 mph), dying down at night.  It is windiest in July and August.

What's included ?

At Sunsail we don’t want you to worry about all the little details. That’s why we include so much in your Flotilla package. 

Two-country Highlights

A two-country flotilla vacation Turkey and Greece gives you the best of both worlds – the opportunity to experience the culture and lifestyle of two very different countries for the price of one.

  • Gumusluk

    The attractive and sleepy fishing village of Gumusluk – the name means ‘place of silver’ - makes for a pleasant, sheltered stopover on a Gumusluk boat charter, with its string of restaurants dotted along the waterfront and the prospect of an exploration of the submerged mosaics of the ancient city of Myndos.

  • Simi Town

    A Simi Town Greece boat charter gives you the opportunity to visit the Greek island of Simi and to experience for yourself the contrast between the two neighboring countries of Greece and Turkey. The food is different for one thing – and Simi Town has plenty of restaurants for you to explore. There’s a terrific museum and some lively nightlife too, which should keep everyone on board happy.
