Charters in Antalya
Eastern Lycian coast

Yacht Charters from Antalya

The base for routes east — Phaselis ruins, Kekova's sunken city, Demre. Quieter than the western Lycian coast, with the same turquoise water.

Antalya gets a fraction of the charter traffic that Bodrum and Fethiye see, which is exactly why some captains prefer it. The eastern Lycian coast — Phaselis, Olympos, Kekova — is the same UNESCO-grade landscape as the western half but with quieter anchorages.

AYT airport (Antalya) has more flights and lower fares than Dalaman or Bodrum-Milas, especially out of season. For two-week trips, departing Antalya and finishing Fethiye (or vice versa) is a common itinerary.

Ce qu'il faut chercher dans le bon bateau

Filtres pré-appliqués à la sélection charters in antalya ci-dessous.

Phaselis & Olympos

Roman harbour ruins you can swim into. Visited by sea, deserted by mid-afternoon when day-tripper boats leave.

Kekova sunken city

Lycian-era settlement half-submerged after an earthquake. Snorkel-visible foundations; the bay also has the best swimming on the eastern coast.

AYT airport

More direct flights and lower fares than Dalaman / Bodrum-Milas. 30 minutes to the marina.

Less crowded

Far fewer charter boats than Bodrum/Fethiye. Anchorages are calmer; restaurants ashore actually have tables in August.

Infos pratiques

À savoir

Marina + port fees
Setur Antalya Marina is the main charter base, on the city's western edge. Captains include the boarding-day berth in the rate; mid-week marina nights elsewhere on the coast (Kaş, Kalkan town quay) are typically billed separately at €100–€200/night.
Fuel
Same per-week budget as the western coast — €1,500–€3,000 depending on motoring/sailing balance. The Lycian east-coast routes have shorter daily passages than the Bodrum loop, so fuel often skews lower here.
Greek-island access
Less common from Antalya than from Bodrum or Marmaris. The closest Greek port (Meis / Kastellorizo) is reached via Kaş, six hours west — most Greek-mix itineraries start in Kaş or include a detour day from there.
One-way charters
Antalya–Fethiye one-way (or vice versa) is the canonical two-week itinerary for the full Lycian coast. The relocation fee is built into the charter rate; expect 10–15% above a round-trip equivalent.
Off-season flights
AYT keeps direct international service longer than DLM and BJV — November to April is still flyable. If you're looking at a shoulder-season charter, Antalya often has cheaper inbound flights than the western airports.

Mouillages accessibles

Où les itinéraires d'une semaine depuis ce port vont réellement. Temps de navigation approximatifs, conditions modérées.

Phaselis1 hr 30 min

Three Roman harbours of an abandoned ancient city. Anchor in the south harbour, snorkel over submerged columns, walk through the marble ruins under pine trees. Day-trippers leave by 4pm; you have it overnight.

Suluada (Three Islands)2 hrs

Tiny offshore islet with electric-blue water — locally called "the Maldives of Turkey" for the white sand strip and shallow turquoise lagoon. Day-trip boats arrive mid-morning; anchor here at dawn or after 5pm to actually swim alone.

Çıralı / Olympos2 hrs 30 min

Long pebble beach backing onto the Olympos Roman ruins and the Lycian Way trailhead. After dark, a 90-minute uphill walk reaches the burning rocks of Chimera — the natural methane vents that gave the ancient legend its name.

Adrasan3 hrs 15 min

Sheltered horseshoe bay south of Olympos, ringed by simple beach restaurants and pensions. Calm overnight anchorage; the sandy bottom holds well in any wind.

Kekova / Kaleköy (Simena)6 hrs

The eastern terminus of most Antalya itineraries — the famous half-submerged Lycian city. Drift over Byzantine walls in 2m of water; tender ashore to the Crusader castle above the village. Longer routes overnight here before retracing west.

Üçağız5 hrs 30 min

Quiet fishing village adjacent to Kekova, and the nearest anchorage with restaurants and a small market. The captain often anchors here for the night and crosses to the Sunken City the next morning at first light.

À terre

Que faire la veille de l'embarquement et après le débarquement, plus une courte liste de restaurants qui valent le détour.

Veille du charter

Antalya's old town (Kaleiçi) is the standout pre-charter destination on the Turkish coast — a walled Ottoman quarter rebuilt around a Roman harbour, with cobbled lanes, restored mansions, and the 2nd-century Hadrian's Gate. Stay one night in a Kaleiçi boutique hotel, walk to dinner, and the marina is 15 minutes by taxi the next morning. The Antalya Archaeological Museum (across town, 15 min) holds the best classical statuary in Turkey — worth a half-day if you arrive Friday.

Lendemain du débarquement

AYT flights leave at all hours so disembarkation timing is flexible. If you have a full day before flying, the Düden waterfalls (15 min by taxi) drop directly into the Mediterranean from a clifftop — striking and only a 30-minute visit. Or pick up the rental car for an inland trip to Termessos (the mountaintop city the Romans never conquered) on the way to the airport.

Où manger à terre
  • Vanilla LoungeModern Mediterranean

    Kaleiçi old-town terrace overlooking the Roman harbour. Mid-range, reservation-friendly, the standard captain's welcome-dinner pick.

  • Seraser Fine DiningModern Turkish + grill

    Set inside the Tuvana Hotel, the polished end of Antalya dining. Tasting menu, regional wines, courtyard seating. Book ahead.

  • Hasan PaşaAnatolian grill + meze

    Old-school Antalya kebap house in Kaleiçi. No frills, no English menu, the lokal's pick for slow-cooked lamb tandır.

  • Club ArmaSeafood + grill

    Marina-front restaurant carved into the Roman harbour walls. Premium pricing, premium views — best for a celebratory last-night dinner.

Questions fréquentes

Pour charters in antalya.

Why aren't there as many vessels here as in Bodrum?

Most of Turkey's charter fleet is concentrated on the western coast. Antalya is a smaller charter market — the trade-off is fewer choices but quieter anchorages and easier flights.

Can we sail one-way Antalya → Fethiye?

Yes — popular for two-week itineraries. The captain charges a relocation fee for the empty return leg. Common variation: 14 days Antalya–Fethiye covering the entire Lycian coast end-to-end.

Is the meltemi as strong here?

No — the eastern Lycian coast is more sheltered from the prevailing northwesterly. Lighter winds in July/August than Bodrum or Marmaris. Better for less-experienced sailors and for guests who get queasy.

Are visits to ruins included?

They're anchorages on the route — the captain stops; you swim ashore and walk in. Most ruins on the coast have free or trivial entry fees. Demre (Myra) is a quick taxi ride from the bay if anyone wants to do the full ancient-city tour.
