Honestly it was amazing from start to finish. Such a quiet, nice boat that wasn’t too crowded. Plenty of spaces to sit or lie down with lots of shade too. The captain was very informative and there were so many spots to jump in and swim. The crew were lovely and very attentive; the dinner was also very nice.

Lovely trip lots of opportunities to swim at each stop and a longer stop at Butterfly Valley for a chance to go into the reservation (we opted for the bar and cocktails instead)! Eric and Mete were great and gave us all the information we needed beforehand very professional !

Full description

Explore the beautiful coastline on a traditional boat tour from Ölüdeniz, with a buffet lunch onboard during the day. Visit the Blue Cave, Butterfly Valley, Camel Beach, and Soguksu Bay with several stops for swimming.

Start with pickup from your accommodation in Ölüdeniz and board the traditional wooden boat known as a gulet in Fethiye, and set off on your adventure. First, head to the Blue Cave and admire the many vibrant shades of blue in the water.


Next, set sail for the Butterfly Valley, home to a variety of butterfly species, and known for its dramatic cliffs enclosing a sheltered beach. Enjoy some time to explore this gem of the Turkish coastline.

Climb back onboard and set off for Aquarium Bay. During this part of the journey, enjoy a delicious freshly-prepared lunch onboard.


Upon arrival at Aquarium Bay jump in the clear water to swim with a variety of curious fish species. Next, stop by St. Nicholas Island, where it is rumored that Santa Claus likes to spend his summers.

Visit Camel Beach and enjoy some time paddling in the shallow waters. Finally, head to the calm and cold waters of Soguksu Bay to refresh after a day of exploring.

Relax on the return journey back to Fethiye. Then board the minibus to take you back to your accommodation in Ölüdeniz.

Excellent tour. I have enjoyed it twice now, once in June and a second time in October. The latter time was the best because the boat was not crowded. Great swimming stops, very good lunch, chill vibes. This tour is a must if you are in Ölüdeniz.
