What to expect

As you cruise away from Istanbul's busy shoreline, take in panoramic views of the city and enjoy the fresh sea breeze. Upon reaching a carefully selected bay, the yacht will anchor, giving you plenty of free time to swim in the crystal-clear waters, sunbathe on the spacious deck, or relax in the shaded seating areas.

Guests can easily enter the water using the swimming ladder or jump from the yacht's swimming platform (passerelle). This experience is designed for travelers who are comfortable swimming in open water and enjoy a friendly group atmosphere.

During the cruise, you'll be served a freshly prepared sandwich along with complimentary bottled water and soft drinks. The yacht is equipped with a toilet, fresh-water rinse facilities for after swimming, and comfortable areas for both sunbathing and relaxing.

Throughout the day, the professional captain and experienced crew will ensure a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable journey. After several hours of swimming and relaxation in the peaceful bays of the Princes' Islands, you'll cruise back to Kabataş Pier, arriving at approximately 4:00 PM with unforgettable memories of a perfect summer day at sea.
