An Amazing Day Exploring Bodrum by Bodrum Boat Tours
Have you ever visited the beautiful coastal town of Bodrum in Turkey? If not, let me tell you about the incredible Bodrum Boat Tour I went on during my recent trip there. The seaside scenery, historic sites, and delicious Turkish cuisine we experienced more than lived up to all the hype. Best of all, we got to enjoy it from the comfort of our own private boat thanks to Charter Bodrum.
Finding the Perfect Boat Tour Company
When I was mapping out our Bodrum schedule I had an idea of wanting to dedicate a day to discovering the nearby areas by sea. Following some investigation the name Charter Bodrum repeatedly surfaced as a highly praised provider of boat tours. With than 25 years of experience in the industry they offer a variety of traditional Turkish gulets and contemporary motor yachts. I completed their form with information, about our group size and preferences eagerly anticipating a tailored price quote.
Within 24 hours, I received a very comprehensive itinerary and pricing options from Charter Bodrum. They were super flexible and friendly to work with in nailing down the final plans. We decided to book a full day Bodrum Boat Tour that included lunch, snacks, and activities all taken care of. Not having to stress over logistics allowed us to fully relax and soak in the natural beauty of the Aegean coast.
A Scenic Sail Along the Turkish Riviera
On the morning of our tour a friendly driver from Charter Bodrum picked us up directly from our hotel in the Bodrum peninsula. From there we made our way to the Gumbet Harbour where our own private boat awaited us. The captain and crew greeted us warmly as we stepped on board offering welcome drinks.
As we embarked on our journey I was captivated by the rocky landscapes and crystal clear azure waters surrounding us—it felt like stepping into a picture perfect postcard! Our first destination was the Turquoise Bay, nestled amidst mountains that gracefully met the sea on three sides. We spent hours snorkeling among fish and wandering along the scenic shoreline paths. Following this adventure we enjoyed a lunch of authentic Turkish meze freshly prepared by the crew.
In the afternoon we leisurely cruised along the coastline adorned with remnants of Greek ruins. Among them I found myself particularly drawn to the Castle of St. Peter standing tall against the backdrop of the Aegean Sea. To our delight we even caught sight of dolphins joyfully swimming alongside our boat. As evening approached and painted hues across the sky we anchored at a cove for a spectacular Bodrum sunset—a perfect end to an unforgettable day, at sea.
An Unforgettable Day Made Possible by Charter Bodrum
I have to say, chartering a boat through Charter Bodrum was one of the best decisions we made for our Turkey trip. Being able to relax on our own large vessel while taking in the natural splendors of Bodrum was truly unbeatable. The crew was also extremely professional, friendly, and made sure we wanted for nothing the entire day.
At the end, we were sad to say goodbye to our boat buddies but left with memories to last a lifetime. I would absolutely recommend Charter Bodrum to anyone looking to experience the Turkish Riviera in style and comfort. Be sure to book well in advance, as their boats and tours fill up quickly in the high season.

An Inside Look at Charter Bodrum’s Fleet
No Bodrum Boat Tour experience would be complete without getting to know the vessels themselves. Charter Bodrum has a variety of boat options to suit different group sizes and budgets. We opted to charter one of their traditional Turkish gulets, called the “Gonca”.
Boarding the boat felt like taking a trip in time. The gleaming wooden accents, inviting seating areas and classic brass fixtures exuded an old world charm. Despite its look the vessel was equipped with all the modern conveniences such as air conditioning, a well stocked galley and expansive outdoor decks. The comfortable private cabins with bathrooms offered a serene retreat after long days of sightseeing.
For groups or those desiring an extra touch of luxury Charter Bodrums collection of upscale motor yachts like the “Sofia” stand out. Featuring indulgences, like a Jacuzzi open air cinema and contemporary interior design these boats allow you to sail through the Aegean Sea in style. Regardless of your choice of ship you can expect a tier boating adventure.
