Yacht charter from Marmaris, where Nelson’s fleet sheltered
Physkos, as Marmaris was known in ancient times, is a renowned holiday destination with a long seafront promenade by the beach and a famous 15th-century castle. Why not start your sailing where Lord Nelson and his entire fleet sheltered in 1798, on the way to Egypt to defeat Napoleon’s armada?
Marmaris is a popular, cosmopolitan resort with Turkish bazaars, lively nightlife and wonderful beaches, and the traditional buildings of its old town surround Marmaris Castle. It is also famous for the loggerhead turtles that hatch on Iztuzu beach. From here you can explore the Carian or the Lycian coast, or both, on a yacht charter in Turkey.
Expect offshore north-westerly winds of 15 to 20 knots. The area is exposed to the Meltemi, which picks up in the afternoon to Force 3 to 5, occasionally Force 6 to 7, alongside local and katabatic winds, and there are many sheltered anchorages for the evening. We rate the area experience level 2.
