Blue cruise Turkey Top Picks & Recommendations

A short definition of the Turkey blue cruise concept

Gulet cruising has a long history that originated from Turkey from where Blue cruise developed into a unique type of holiday. Cevat Şakir Kabaağaçlı known as the ‘Fisherman of Halicarnassus’ was the Founder of the “Blue cruise” concept. This concept became a very popular concept since it offers you an opportunity to explore stunning naturally beautiful islands and uncrowned beaches and bays in a way that regular trips never could.

And how do we organize your blue cruise in Turkey?
