Sunsail Holidays Turkey

Diversity is the key word for this dazzling destination where the ruins of ancient civilisations mix with a vibrant nightlife and modern marinas. A curious blend of old and new, this vast and varied country combines simplicity and sophistication.
Turkey is less expensive than most Mediterranean destinations and few others possess such a wealth of culture, history and intrigue. Enjoy delicious, exotic cuisine, meet friendly locals and uncover hidden treasures in an Aladdin’s cave of bazaars selling spices, silver trinkets and ‘kilim’ carpets.

Our cruising area encompasses some of the most stunning sailing grounds that southern Turkey has to offer. Blessed by sunshine and good winds, you’re almost guaranteed great sailing on moderate seas. Discover towns untouched by tourism and beautiful bays still only accessible by boat where fresh mountain rivers run down through lush, green forests that fringe the shores.
