Akyaka Boat Tour Routes

There are so many bays and beaches in Akyaka that although some of them can be reached by land, others can only be reached by sea. Moreover, some of the bays that can be reached by road are a bit troublesome to reach. For this reason, going on a boat tour is the best option to kill three birds with one stone.

Akyaka daily boat tour usually goes to 4 or 5 bays. Which bays to go to can also change according to the weather conditions that day and the crowdedness of the bay. Akyaka boat tour route consists of the following bays.

Akyaka Boat Tour Route

1. Ziyaretciler Bay
2. Incekum Beach
3. Sedir Island
4. Dark Blue Bay
5. Gallipoli Underwater Caves (Rabbit Island)
6. Kandilli
7. Zeytinlik Bay

Ziyaretciler Bay

Now let’s come to the details of the Akyaka boat tour we participated in. I will try to write everything in detail from the bays we went to, the food we ate, from the boat to the condition of the bays. Our first stop was Ziraatçiler Bay.

Ziraatçiler Bay is one of the paradise bays of Akyaka that cannot be reached by land. When the colour of the lush green forest falls into the waters, such a beautiful turquoise colour emerges that one’s eyes are dazzled. This was the first stop of the day on our tour. There was a 45 minute swimming break. Don’t forget to bring your snorkel and explore under this clear water. The location of the bay is here.

Incekum Beach

İncekum Beach is one of the places visited on the Akyaka boat tour. In fact, you can go to Incekum by land. You drive from Marmaris Çamlı Village towards Incekum Beach. You need to park your car at a certain point. From here you can reach the beach with tractors.

There is also the possibility to rent sunbeds and umbrellas for a fee at İncekum Beach. As the name suggests, this is a beach with fine golden sands. Suitable for families with children. The water is quite warm. It was a little wavy the day we went. I don’t know if it’s always like this, but I didn’t enjoy this aspect of the sea like a sheet.

On the Akyaka boat tour, we spend 45 minutes at Incekum Beach and take plenty of strokes in these blue waters. Since it is a very popular beach, it is very crowded in high season, especially on weekends. It is useful to take this into consideration. Location here.

Note: Taking a boat tour in Akyaka is very advantageous at some point. You do not pay the entrance fee of the beaches, lunch is included in the tour fee and you visit more than one bay. I think it is a very logical activity.😊

Sedir Island and Cleopatra Beach

Sedir Island is one of the indispensable stops of Akyaka boat tour route. In fact, I guess I wouldn’t be wrong if I said that many people join the boat tour to see this place.😊 Cleopatra Beach, also known as Cleopatra Beach, has snow-white special sands. According to the legend, the Roman commander Antonius brought these special sands from Egypt for his lover Cleopatra. But the truth of the matter is that these sands, which emerged with geological formations and are under protection, are limestone droplets formed in a special way.

There is also Kedrai Ancient City on Sedir Island. For this reason, it is under protection as a 1st degree archaeological and protected area. Among the ruins of the ancient city are towers and fortification walls, Apollo sanctuary, church chapel ruins, 2500-seat theatre.

You can go to Sedir Island in 2 ways. The first option is of course the daily boat tours departing from Akyaka. The boat leaves the passengers at the entrance of the island and gives 2 hours time. There are a certain number of sunbeds inside. Although it is not possible to find a place in the middle of the day, if you go in the morning, you will get a nice place. Sunbeds are free of charge. There is also a museum cafe on the island. Prices may seem a little high. For this reason, it may be useful to come supplied at the point of food and beverage.

Your second option to go to Sedir Island is to go directly to the island by boats departing from the pier in Çamlı Village. In this way, you can spend as much time on the island as you wish and return when you want. So think of it like a minibus boat that takes you to and from the island.

Dark Blue Bay

Imagine a bay named after the colour of the water. The most beautiful shades of blue are here. One of our favourite bays in the Gulf of Gökova was Lacivert Bay. This is a clear bay where schools of fish pass under your feet while swimming. Our boat takes a 45-minute swimming break here and you can enjoy the blue waters to the fullest. I am sure you will love this place too. Location of the bay on the map here.

Gallipoli Island Underwater Caves (Rabbit Island)

One of the most beautiful stops of Akyaka boat tour route is Gelibolu Island. You should definitely, definitely snorkel here. Gökova’s biggest fish are here. There are caves under the water. The cave 4-5 metres deep, in the form of an arch passing over a pit with a diameter of 2 metres.

You enter from one end and exit from the other. Of course, you need to be a professional to do this dive. When you look carefully, it can be seen from the water surface even with goggles. According to a rumour, one end of the caves extends to Sedir Island. You can see plenty of goats and rabbits on the island 😊 The location of the bay is here.

The boat we preferred for our tour was a very large and spacious boat with plenty of tables and seating on the ground floor. There are sunbeds on the upper floor where you can sunbathe and relax.

The captain of our boat is also very knowledgeable about the bays we visited. He also guides by giving very good information.😊 All boat staff are interested and respectful. There is grilled chicken pasta and salad for lunch. There are also watermelon treats. The boat you will take a tour in Akyaka is important because there are very mediocre boats.

Things to Consider on a Boat Trip

Boat tours are both relaxing and fun activities. However, if you do not pay attention to some important points on these tours, the boat tour you go on can turn into torture rather than pleasure. I recommend you to pay attention to the following items to have a trouble-free boat tour.

• Definitely take sun cream with you. If possible, make sure it is a high factor cream.
• Don’t forget sunglasses, slippers and sea shoes.
• If you are interested in underwater, take your snorkel with you.
• I guess I don’t need to tell you about the towel, hat, swimsuit and shorts 😊
• Be careful when jumping into the sea from the high parts of the boat. Unfortunately, we saw some people who slipped and fell.
• Be careful not to slip as your feet will be wet when you get on the boat from the sea.
• Since some boats do not dock at the shore, you can take a waterproof case with you if you want to take photos with your phone on the beach.
• Take medication with you in case of nausea or dizziness due to the waves.
• It is useful to bring a separate special bag for your personal belongings.
• It is useful to book in advance due to high season occupancy rates.
