Overview

Our exclusive Side to Suluada Boat Tour is meticulously crafted for travelers seeking ultimate relaxation and breathtaking natural beauty.

Our exclusive Side to Suluada Boat Tour is meticulously crafted for travelers seeking ultimate relaxation and breathtaking natural beauty. The adventure begins early between 05:30 and 06:00 AM, ensuring a comfortable and air-conditioned drive from your hotel to the picturesque coastal town of Adrasan. Before setting sail, we provide a relaxing breakfast break at 08:30 AM in Adrasan. During this time, guests can choose to purchase a local breakfast at the restaurant or enjoy their own pre-packed snacks to fuel up for the exciting day ahead.

At 09:40 AM, our experienced captain and crew welcome you aboard as we set sail from the Adrasan coastline into the mesmerizing turquoise waters. After a short, scenic cruise, we arrive at our first pristine bay at 10:10 AM, offering you the perfect opportunity to dive into the clearest waters of the Mediterranean. As the journey continues, we anchor at a second tranquil bay around 11:30 AM. Here, you will enjoy another refreshing swimming session while our crew serves a carefully prepared, delicious onboard lunch, allowing you to dine while surrounded by spectacular marine landscapes.

The pinnacle of our excursion begins at 13:00 when we finally reach the world-renowned Suluada. Often referred to as the Turkish Maldives, this magnificent island welcomes you with its dazzling white beaches and therapeutic waters. We will explore the island's enigmatic Love Cave before giving you ample free time to swim and sunbathe on the pristine shoreline. As we begin our return journey at 15:00, we will make one final swimming stop to wash away any remaining fatigue. The boat docks back at the Adrasan port around 16:00, where our transfer vehicles will be waiting to provide a safe and comfortable ride back to your hotel in Side, concluding a truly unforgettable Mediterranean excursion.
