Bodrum and the Gulf of Gökova Luxury Cruise on Nikola Gulet

A luxury cabin cruise through Bodrum and the Gulf of Gökova

Discover Gökova’s bays aboard the intimate Nikola

This eight-day Blue Cruise is designed for travellers who want to visit several stretches of coastline from a single base. Sleep aboard the gulet Nikola and travel between bays and harbours during the day. The captain sets the pace around passages, anchoring and meal times. When the sea is calm, the crew can set aside time for a swim or a break on deck.

Nikola’s route starts at Hapimag Sea Garden on the Bodrum coast. From Çatı Bay it leads through the Seven Islands and English Harbour to Sedir Island, Akyaka and Akbük. Longoz and the sheltered bays farther west follow. Orak Island is the final scheduled island stop before returning to the resort.

Sedir Island, Akyaka, Akbük are among the scheduled stops. You can enjoy the coastal views from the gulet, and where a swim is possible, the crew will show you where to enter the water. Visits ashore depend on the mooring and the time available that day. The crew shares the next departure time before guests leave the boat.

Life aboard the gulet

Your reservation is for a cabin on a shared gulet. Cabin categories can include Forward Master, Aft Master and Deluxe Double. Check the bed layout, cabin capacity and occupancy rate for the selected departure before booking. The dining area, seating and deck are shared with other guests. At anchor you can spend time outdoors in the shade or find a place to sit and take in the coast.

Full-board meals are served on the gulet, with breakfast, lunch and dinner arranged around the sailing and anchoring schedule. The crew will share meal and departure times on board. If you have dietary requirements, send the details with your sailing date so the crew can confirm availability and any supplement.

Boarding and arrival

You return to the same boarding point at the end of the cruise. Use the planned embarkation and disembarkation times when arranging transport to and from the port. Allow enough time to reach the quay with your luggage. The exact berth and yacht name are confirmed before departure. The day-by-day itinerary below shows the planned sequence of stops.

The first day includes time to get settled and meet the crew. The last day is for breakfast and disembarkation. On the intervening days, the length of each stop can vary with sailing conditions. Allow a comfortable margin before any flight or onward tour on the day you return.
