Who KAPTAN YILMAZ suits
Bodrum Shipyard constructed KAPTAN YILMAZ in 2006, shaping a classic 31.1 m motor yacht suited to large family gatherings and convivial groups of friends. Her layout incorporates five cabins accommodating twelve guests, with five crew members attending to every requirement. Days at anchor flow naturally from paddling the kayaks around sheltered headlands to enjoying lunch prepared on the bbq, with an outdoor shower on hand for a rinse before relaxing inside under the air conditioning.
When evaluated against comparable yachts cruising Turkey, she sits right in line with expectations for her class. She accommodates the same guest count as alternative options, welcoming twelve guests in total, while her 31.1 m length remains similar to other choices in the area. Her build year is likewise similar to neighbouring vessels, though her weekly rate is higher than that of typical alternatives.
With her schedule encompassing Turkey and the East Mediterranean across winter and summer programmes, the best time to embark spans the warmer months from May through October. July and August bring vibrant afternoons and lively bays, whereas May, June, September, and October present mild temperatures, peaceful waters, and comfortable swimming conditions well into autumn.

Cruising Turkey: when to go and where to anchor
Best time
The cruising season runs from May to October. July and August bring temperatures exceeding 35°C, fresh afternoon meltemi winds, and the highest concentration of yachts. May, June, September, and October offer milder weather between 22°C and 28°C with lighter breezes and quieter bays. Sea temperatures remain comfortable for swimming through late October, while midsummer delivers the most reliable sailing winds across open stretches between the peninsulas.
Practical tips
- Yachts cruising Turkish waters must carry a valid transit log and use a registered Blue Card system to track waste pump-outs at coastal stations.
- Provisioning is straightforward in hub ports like Bodrum, Göcek, and Fethiye, where large supermarkets routinely coordinate direct deliveries to the quay.
- Dress respectfully when going ashore in smaller coastal villages or visiting historical sites, and respect designated swimming areas marked in quiet bays.
Anchorages to know
- Tomb Bay (Taşyaka)Located in the Gulf of Fethiye, this sheltered cove features Lycian rock tombs cut into the cliffs and offers secure mooring using lines taken ashore.
- BozburunA quiet village harbour sheltered by outlying islands, providing deep, protected anchorages along the Datça and Bozburun peninsulas.
- KnidosPositioned at the tip of the Datça Peninsula, this natural harbour allows anchoring within ancient basins adjacent to Hellenistic ruins.
- Gemiler IslandSituated south of Fethiye, this island offers calm overnight anchorage in the lee of Byzantine ruins and coastal walking trails.
