Catamaran Charters from Marmaris
The natural base for routes that mix Hisarönü Bay, the Datça peninsula, and a quick crossing to Rhodes or Symi. Two hulls, one wide platform. Steadier at anchor than a sailing yacht, faster and shallower than a gulet, with a cockpit that doubles as a living room.
Catamaran charters from Marmaris are the natural pairing for travellers who already know which boat type they want and which Turkish port they want to start in. This page filters our directory to exactly that intersection — every catamaran based in Marmaris that's bookable through MaviSail.
Marmaris is the eastern end of the Turkish charter map — a deep, sheltered bay, the second biggest charter fleet in the country, and the easiest jumping-off point for the Greek Dodecanese. From here a week's itinerary can include Hisarönü's string of bays, the Datça peninsula's remote anchorages, and a day or two on Symi or Rhodes.
Catamarans are the modern alternative to the classic Turkish gulet. The two-hull layout means almost no roll at anchor (a real comfort difference if anyone gets queasy), shallow draft for tucking into bays gulets can't reach, and a flat bridgedeck cockpit that becomes the social heart of the trip.

Filtres pré-appliqués à la sélection catamaran charters in marmaris ci-dessous.
Greek crossings
Rhodes is a 4-hour passage; Symi is 2–3. Both are well within day-trip range — most week-long Marmaris routes include at least one Greek night.
Hisarönü Bay
A ring of dozens of small bays right outside Marmaris harbour. Short hops, sheltered swimming, no open-water passage required.
Stable at anchor
The two-hull layout almost eliminates roll. Light sleepers and anyone prone to seasickness notice the difference immediately.
Shallow draft
1.2–1.5m draft means you can tuck into bays a deep-keel sailing yacht can't. More private anchorages, closer to the beach.

Questions fréquentes
Pour catamaran charters in marmaris.
How does the Greek crossing actually work?
You clear out of Turkey at Marmaris harbour (passport stamps + Transit Log), motor across, clear in to Greece at Rhodes or Symi marina, then reverse on the way back. Add half a day per crossing for paperwork. Captains handle the logistics; you just need passports on board.
Marmaris vs. Bodrum?
Marmaris is more sheltered, has easier Greek access, and is busier with sailing yachts. Bodrum has a wider gulet fleet, livelier nightlife, and faster Aegean access. Choose Marmaris for sailing-yacht trips and Greek crossings; Bodrum for traditional gulet trips and a livelier base.
Catamaran vs gulet — which is better?
Different boats, different trips. Cat = more sailing, more stable, more modern, smaller crew, slightly higher per-person cost. Gulet = more deck space, full galley crew, more cabins per €, more "Turkish blue-cruise" feel. Pick the cat for couples or smaller groups; the gulet for larger groups and food-focused trips.
Do I need sailing experience?
No — every catamaran in our directory comes with a captain. Bareboat options exist via Marmaris if you have a sailing licence, but the default is fully crewed.
