Kemer Marina sits at the base of the Beydağları mountains — pine forest running down to the sea on both sides. The coastline south of Kemer is some of the least developed on the Turkish Riviera: coves only reachable by boat, clear water, and the ancient ruins of Phaselis sitting on a sea-facing peninsula 15km south. A private yacht rental from Kemer puts all of this within a half-day's reach.
Hotel transfer from Beldibi, Göynük, Çamyuva, and Tekirova included. Payment at the marina on the day — no deposit required.
The stretch of coast between Kemer and Olympos is protected inside the Beydağları Coastal National Park — no hotel development, no beach clubs, no road access to most of the coves. This is the reason Kemer Marina is popular for private charters: the bays south of the town are genuinely secluded in a way the main resort beaches are not.
The mountain backdrop is part of what makes this stretch distinctive. The Taurus peaks, still snow-capped into April, rise directly behind the pine forest. From a charter boat anchored in one of the southern coves, you have mountains behind the treeline and open sea ahead — a combination you don't get from a beach lounger.
Phaselis is a Lycian city founded in the 7th century BC, 15km south of Kemer on a small peninsula between three natural harbours. The ruins include a colonnaded main street, Roman baths, a theatre, and the original harbour breakwaters still visible in the water. Visiting by boat is the most natural way to arrive — the ancient city was a significant maritime trading port, and anchoring in the northern or southern harbour gives direct access to the site.
Phaselis works well as the destination for a full-day charter, spending the morning at the ruins and the afternoon swimming in the bays. The water in Phaselis's coves is clear, shallow, and good for snorkelling over the submerged harbour stones.
A half-day charter (4 hours) from Kemer Marina typically covers the immediate coves south of the marina — quiet, clear water, with one or two swimming stops. A full day (8 hours) reaches Phaselis or continues further south toward the Olympos coastline. The route is adjusted based on conditions and your group's preference.
