This is a tour for rest: no music, no party, no crowding for a place to lie down.
Why it costs more
The fare sits well above the cheapest tour here, and the reason is what you stop paying for. Drinks, soft and alcoholic, come with the seat. So does a sunbed that is reserved for you, which ends the morning rush for a place to lie down. On a boat where you would otherwise buy drinks all day, the gap narrows.
Where it goes
The boat visits the mouth of the Manavgat River, passes Dolphin Island and reaches the sheltered bays named after the turtles. It anchors for slow swim breaks in clear, cool water, and there is no pressure to get back on board. How many stops you get depends on the sea that day.
What you will hear
Water, mostly. Live entertainment is deliberately absent. Couples who want a day to themselves and people travelling alone are the guests this tour is built for. It is not the right boat for children who need entertaining, and the two pirate tours will serve them far better.
The boat
The photographs on this page are of the real boat: wooden, with blue sunbed mats on a red-carpeted deck and tables under the roof for lunch.
What is still extra
Tips are up to you. Optional activities on board, extra private services and photos or videos are not in the fare. Sun cream, sunglasses, a hat and a towel are all you need.
You pay on the tour day, and you can cancel for free up to 48 hours before.
