Boat Hire in Turkey with Click&Boat

Located between Asia and Europe, Turkey is a beautiful country perfect for a sailing holiday. The capital, Ankara, is known for its cosmopolitan qualities and extensive gastronomy, but there is so much to see throughout the country as a whole. Turkey borders the Black Sea, the Aegean Sea, and the Mediterranean Sea, making it a wonderful place to witness a diverse range of landscapes and waters. Charters in Turkey offer a unique opportunity to create unforgettable memories as you navigate along the Turkish coastline and discover all the charming cities in the country. For an added touch of elegance, consider a luxury yacht charter to fully immerse yourself in the beauty of this stunning destination.

What type of boat is best for a yacht charter in Turkey?

There are so many options to choose from on Click&Boat that choosing the right boat hire can be a daunting task. However, we have search filters to help narrow your selection down to help make the process simple and easy. For example, you can select the dates of your charter period, the price range, and the size of the boat. Typically, people hire motorboats and RIBs when they want something easy to navigate for shorter periods of time. However, if you plan on hiring your boat for a week or longer, the popular choice is to look for sailboats, catamarans, and gulets, which are larger and more comfortable for longer journeys.

What is included in the cost?

The cost of hiring a yacht in Turkey includes the use of the yacht itself as well as the fuel throughout the sailing experience. A skipper may also be included in the price of a private yacht hire. When you hire a private yacht with click & boat, some rentals may also include a crew who are there to help with any additional tasks such as cleaning and cooking. Sporting equipment can also be arranged, but this depends on the boat owner and type of yacht in Turkey.

Should you hire a boat with or without a skipper?

A skipper is a great alternative to a bareboat rental in Turkey. It is possible to charter your boat without a skipper if you meet the regional requirements for sailing in Turkey and if the boat owner approves. However, there are many benefits to having a professional skipper on board your boat hire. For example, you can focus on relaxing and enjoying your holiday while the skipper takes care of the technical aspects such as sailing, docking, and anchoring. In addition, the skipper will be comfortable sailing in the area, so you can ensure a safe and comfortable journey as they guide you through the beautiful Turkish waters.

What season is the best to charter a boat in Turkey?

Due to the country’s size and location, Turkey is in a subtropical and temperate climate zone. Therefore, the Mediterranean side of the country such as Antalya experiences hot and dry summers and mild winters, while the Black Sea side such as Samsun has cooler summers and warmer winters. This being said, there is no perfect time to visit Turkey, it just depends on your preferences. The most popular times to visit are certainly during the summer months of July and August, but any time between April and October is certainly nice enough for a boat hire.

Where to charter a yacht in Turkey?

Turkey offers numerous ports and marinas for yacht charter enthusiasts to begin their sailing experience. Some popular marinas include Marmaris, Bodrum, Göcek, and Fethiye, each with a variety of boats available to rent. These marinas are conveniently located within a reasonable distance from major airports or city centres, making them easily accessible for travellers. The number of boats in each port may vary, but they typically offer a wide selection to cater to different preferences and budgets. Facilities at these ports and marinas often include amenities such as fuel stations, electricity, water, waste disposal, and Wi-Fi, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable experience for sailors embarking on their Turkish adventure.
