In May, Alanya officially opens the yacht season. The water temperature has risen to +21°C, and at the marina by the Red Tower up to 40 charter vessels moor at the same time each day.

The most popular routes

  • Cleopatra Beach → Damlataş Cave — a short 3-hour loop, a favourite with families with children.
  • Alanya → Side — a full day along the coast with swimming in the open sea.
  • Mahmutlar → the Sulu Islands — sheltered bays accessible only from the water.

Prices for the 2026 season

A day charter of a motor yacht for 8 people starts from €650, a sailing yacht from €480. For peak dates (mid-June to early September) it's worth booking now.

Editor's tip: for your first outing, take a licensed captain — the coastal terrain around Kargıcak calls for local knowledge.
