Weekly charters run Saturday to Saturday: handover in the late afternoon and return to the base the evening before check-out at 9:00. Gulet cruises and day charters have their own times, shown on each boat’s page.
Can we sail to the Greek islands from Turkey?
Only with the charter company’s agreement and customs clearance both ways, which costs a day and paperwork; most weeks stay on the Turkish coast, which has the bays and the restaurant pontoons anyway.
