From Kızılağaç: Your Boat Day From Booking to Drop-Off

Rather than describing Kızılağaç, which you can see from your balcony, this page lays out the sequence: what happens, in which order, once you decide on a boat day. You are in the eastern part of the pickup belt, between Titreyengöl and Kızılot.

Short answer

You reserve online with no payment, can cancel free until 48 hours before the start, receive your pickup details from us, are collected from your hotel in Kızılağaç, spend the day on the water, pay in euros on the day, and get driven back. The transfer is part of the fare.

The sequence

  • Now: choose. The comparison table takes a few minutes. Check that your date works, particularly for the Monday and Thursday market.
  • Then: reserve. Enter your hotel, the guests and a working phone number.
  • Up to 48 hours before: you are free to change your mind. Cancelling within that period costs nothing.
  • Before the tour: we confirm your pickup. Times vary a little according to where each hotel is.
  • The day: pack and wait at the hotel. Have the things you need and the fare ready.
  • On board: follow the crew. They may change the route for sea or weather.
  • Afterwards: the same vehicle service brings you back.

Where the line falls for payment

Your booking doesn't cost anything at the time you make it. The fare, listed on the prices page, is due on the day. Anything else, such as drinks or photographs on most boats, is your own choice and your own expense at the time.

What to do about the wait

Being at the eastern end of the belt tells us nothing about whether you'll be first or last on the route, because we hold no record of the order. So do not plan your breakfast around a neighbour's pickup time. Plan around your own, and if you are running late, phone us immediately.

If you have only a few days

Start with the shorter boats. The six-hour tours are the Caretta Bay, Little Pirates, Fishing, Dolphin Island and Pirate days. Your hotel may be listed below; if it is not, write in its name and we will confirm pickup from it.
