STAGES OF A BLUE CRUISE
A blue cruise holiday is not only about enjoying the sea and nature, but also about experiencing a journey enriched with culture and history. Before setting sail, there are several important steps to consider. Here are the key stages to follow throughout your blue cruise planning process:
1) Determining the Number of Guests
Deciding who you would like to travel with is the first step of a blue cruise holiday. Whether you are planning the trip with friends, family, or children, clearly defining the number of guests helps you choose the most suitable yacht. Yacht types and layouts are selected according to group size.
2) Choosing the Dates
When planning your holiday, it is important to find dates that suit all participants. In Turkey, blue cruises can typically be enjoyed from late April until early November, depending on weather conditions.
3) Setting the Budget
After finalizing the group size and travel dates, determining your budget becomes essential. Yacht options and pricing vary widely, allowing you to explore alternatives that match your expectations and budget range.
4) Planning the Route
The route you choose will define the overall atmosphere of your blue cruise. Along the coastline between Bodrum and Antalya, there are more than ten different route options available. For first-time blue cruise guests, staying flexible with route selection can be a practical approach.
5) Selecting the Yacht
Yacht selection is one of the most important elements of your holiday. When choosing a yacht, it is important to consider not only the price and size, but also the equipment on board, the condition of the yacht, the materials used, and the quality of the crew. These factors directly influence the overall comfort of your experience.
6) Food, Beverages, and Provision Planning
Approximately ten days before departure, you can contact our provisioning department to create your preferred menu. You may choose to handle the shopping yourself or request that all provisions be supplied and delivered to the yacht on your behalf.
7) Reservation, Payment, and Contract
Once you decide on the yacht that best suits your needs, the reservation process begins. After confirming availability, a preliminary contract is prepared. Upon payment of the deposit, the reservation becomes official and confirmed. A confirmation email and contract documents are then shared with you.
8) Transportation and Transfers
You may choose Dalaman, Antalya, or Bodrum Airports for your arrival. Transfer services from these airports to the marinas can be arranged. Transfer costs vary depending on the number of guests and the distance involved.
9) Boarding the Yacht
On the day of departure, our team will welcome you at the marina and assist you with boarding the yacht. Once all preparations are completed, the lines are released and your long-awaited blue cruise journey begins.
