How does the yacht trip from Antalya work?
Transfer to Kemer Marina
We pick up guests at the hotel gate, by the security post, just past the barrier, between about 08:00 and 09:00. We’ll put the exact pickup time for your hotel on your e-ticket once your booking is confirmed.
The bus then takes you from Antalya to Kemer Marina, where the day at sea begins.
Boarding the Megastar
At the marina entrance you’re met and shown the way to the Megastar.
You show your ticket and go on board. You can settle on the sun deck, find a spot in the shade or sit by the rail, where you get the best view of the sea and the coast.
The Kemer mountains from the water
The yacht usually leaves Kemer Marina at about 10:20. Right from the start, the deck looks out over the coastline, the green mountain slopes and the Mediterranean.
On the way you can sunbathe, take photos of the coast or simply enjoy the fresh sea breeze.
Phaselis Bay by the ancient city
The first stop is Phaselis Bay. Right beside it lies the ancient city of the same name, with more than two thousand years of history. A visit to the ruins is not part of the programme.
Here you can swim, rest and take a few photos.
Lunch on board
After the swim everyone is back on board, and lunch is served, usually between 13:00 and 14:00. Meanwhile the yacht carries on along the Kemer coast, so you can eat at your own pace and watch the sea.
Lunch is pasta, chicken schnitzel and salads. It’s part of the tour; drinks and anything else you buy at the bar on board are paid for separately.
Music and the foam party
After lunch the music comes on, and the entertainment and the foam party begin.
If you feel like dancing, join the other guests on deck. If you’d rather take it easy, carry on sunbathing, watch the sea or sit in the shade.
Alacasu Paradise Bay among the pines
The next stop is Alacasu Paradise Bay. Here the pine forest comes down almost to the water’s edge, with mountains rising around the bay.
The water here is clean and good for a swim, or you can stay on board and rest on deck.
Last swim at Aquarium Bay
The route ends at Aquarium Bay near Kiriş. The bay owes its name to its clear water, where you can often see fish and the stones on the seabed.
Before heading back to the marina you can have one more swim and, if you’ve brought a mask, take a look below the surface.
Back to the marina and the transfer to your hotel
At about 15:30–16:00 the yacht moors in Kemer Marina, and guests head to the bus.
Guests are usually back at their hotels in Antalya between 17:00 and 18:00. The exact time depends on where your hotel is and on traffic.
A yacht trip from Antalya swaps a beach day for a day at sea: three bays for swimming, lunch on board, a foam party and views of the coast from the water.
Book your seat online with no prepayment. You pay for the tour on the bus on the day.

We pick up guests at the hotel gate, by the security post, just past the barrier, between about 08:00 and 09:00.

How many swim stops are there?
The yacht usually makes three stops: in Phaselis Bay, Alacasu Paradise Bay and Aquarium Bay near Kiriş. At each stop you have free time to swim, sunbathe, take photos or just stay on deck.
What will we see on the trip?
The route follows the Kemer coast, where the mountains rise close to the sea and pines reach almost to the shoreline. Right beside Phaselis Bay lies an ancient city founded as early as the 7th century BC. Alacasu Paradise Bay is surrounded by mountains and pine forest; the water is clean, and you swim straight from the yacht. In Aquarium Bay near Kiriş the water is clear, and you can often see fish.
Can we visit the ancient city of Phaselis during the stop?
No, a walk around the ruins of Phaselis is not part of this programme. During the stop guests swim in the bay, relax on the yacht, sunbathe and take photos. The ancient city lies right next to the bay, so you’re close to its history even without a walk through the ruins.
Does the yacht stop in shallow water?
No. The yacht is large, so it can’t go into very shallow water. It stops in bays where the water is deep enough for it to anchor safely. If you’re not a confident swimmer, please bear this in mind in advance.
Are there life jackets and pool noodles on the yacht?
Yes, the yacht has life jackets and pool noodles for swimming. You can use them at the swim stops if they help you feel more at ease in the water.
Is there a toilet, a shower and a changing room on the yacht?
Yes, there’s a toilet and a changing room on board. There’s no separate shower cubicle, but after a swim you can quickly rinse off the salt water next to the swim ladder.
Will there be a foam party?
Yes, on every trip: after lunch there’s entertainment and a foam party on the yacht. Taking part is optional, so you can dance, watch from the side or just relax on deck.
Is the trip suitable for children?
Yes, the yacht trip is suitable for families with children. The day includes swimming, time to relax on the yacht, lunch, music, entertainment and a foam party. We kindly ask parents to keep a close eye on their children on board and at the swim stops.
Will my child have their own seat on the bus?
Children with a paid ticket get their own seat on the bus. Children from 0 to 4 travel free on an adult’s lap and don’t get a seat of their own. If you want your little one to have their own seat, book a paid child ticket for them when you make your booking.
What time does the trip finish, and when will we be back at the hotel?
The yacht usually returns to Kemer Marina between about 15:30 and 16:00. Guests then board the bus back to Antalya. You’ll be back at your hotel between about 17:00 and 18:00. Your arrival time will vary with your hotel’s location and the traffic.
