Blue Cruise Life
As an experienced blue cruise company, we believe we have the right recipe to make your Mediterranean cruise one of the highlights of your stay in Turkey.
So what awaits you when you embark on an Alaturca Blue Cruise?
Eat, sunbathe, swim, sleep, relax and do it again!
Most of our shore excursions take you to some of the most spectacular and remote swimming beaches as well as some of the real tourist attractions along the coast.
From small fishing villages to ancient ruins and the largest marina in the south, you can visit these places along the way or stay on board and relax a bit.
We offer a variety of games to help you pass the time on board.
Some boats are equipped with books to help you pass the time, while all ships are equipped with music systems so you can enjoy music while you sail.
You can also take part in a variety of optional activities, from paragliding to diving and water sports.
Read everything you can to make sure you are fully prepared for the voyage of a lifetime.
We believe we have some of the best chefs in the Mediterranean.Meals are prepared using only fresh local ingredients and there is always enough food for everyone.
It is said that paragliding will be an unforgettable experience by jumping from Babadag, which is approximately 2000 meters above sea level, and watching the magnificent view of Ölüdeniz Beach and the Blue Lagoon. It is one of the best places in the world for paragliding.
Kaş and Fethiye are very good diving spots with their coral reefs and interesting shipwreck ruins. The Mediterranean is home to a wide variety of fascinating marine life, including fish, turtles, octopuses, crayfish, lobsters, eels, squid and, if you’re lucky, dolphins.
You can also find a variety of water sports options in some of the bays where you will spend the night. Watch out for big bananas, ringos, water slides and more.
In our gallery you will probably find a card set or two, a backgammon set and other games depending on the gallery. Enjoy interacting with other travelers while playing card games.
Sometimes our galettes are equipped with hand-held fishing reels. Unfortunately, there is a lot of fishing going on in the Mediterranean, so while you may have the chance to catch fish, you might actually find a few bites too. Ask the crew if they have reels and give it a try.
There are plenty of places to swim along the way. Don’t forget to share any snorkeling equipment you find on board with others so that you can see under the turquoise waters you will visit along the way.
Wake up early to enjoy the sunrise during your cruise, or put on your swimsuit and jump into the ocean when you anchor. There’s no better way to start the day than swimming in the beautiful sea.
Many of our guests say that one of the highlights of their night is sleeping under the stars. Take your bed out of the cabin and sleep under the stars on the deck. It was a wonderful experience.
Get off at any stop along the way and immerse yourself in the depths of history along this coast. The ancient ruins you encounter along the way show how old this country is.
