Bodrum is one of Turkey’s most loved coastal gems, known for its timeless beauty, vibrant atmosphere, and deep maritime heritage. At Mirya Yachting, we proudly offer unforgettable Bodrum gulet charters, where every journey blends luxury, tradition, and discovery. Between April and October, travelers from all over the world come to this picturesque harbor town to experience the charm of the Aegean Sea aboard beautifully crafted wooden gulets.
The Magic of Bodrum and Its Timeless Appeal
Bodrum has long been the heart of gulet cruising. The harbor, lined with elegant wooden yachts, captures the spirit of traditional Turkish craftsmanship and seafaring history. As the sun sets, the golden light reflects off the calm waters, creating a scene that feels both ancient and modern. Beyond the harbor, Bodrum invites visitors to explore its fascinating past. The Castle of St. Peter, built in the 15th century by the Knights of St. John, stands as a symbol of Bodrum’s rich history. Inside, the Museum of Underwater Archaeology showcases treasures from ancient shipwrecks and relics from the Bronze Age, bringing Turkey’s maritime legacy to life. Just nearby, the ruins of the Mausoleum at Halicarnassus—one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World—remind us that Bodrum’s story stretches across centuries.
