Swimwear:Bring at least 2-3 sets so you always have a dry one.
Light Layers:Even in summer, evenings on the water can get breezy. A light sweater or windbreaker is essential.
Casual Chic:For dinners at harbor towns whileexploring Turkish sailing routes, a few smart-casual outfits are perfect.
On Deck:Most gulets have a "no shoes" policy to protect the wooden decks. You will mostly be barefoot or wearing clean boat socks.
Off the Boat:Bring sturdy sandals or walking shoes for visiting ancient ruins and exploring coastal villages.
Sunscreen: High SPF and reef-safe options are preferred to support sustainable travel in Turkey.
Hat and Sunglasses: Make sure they have a strap; the wind loves to take them!
Personal Meds: While we have first aid kits, bring your own sea-sickness tablets and personal prescriptions.
Power Bank: Although our private yacht rentals in Turkey have charging stations, a portable charger is handy for long days on shore.
Dry Bag: Essential for keeping your phone and camera safe during dinghy rides to the beach.
Books or E-readers: For those quiet moments anchored in a turquoise bay.
