A Calm Escape on the Alanya Relax Boat Tour
If you’re seeking a peaceful day away from the bustling streets of Alanya, this Relax Boat Tour offers a gentle cruise through some of Turkey’s most beautiful coastlines. Starting from Alanya Port, you’ll spend between 4.5 and 6 hours enjoying serene sailing, scenic swimming stops, and a hearty lunch with unlimited soft drinks. Guided in multiple languages—including English, Turkish, Russian, and German—you’ll find this trip as accessible as it is calming.
What we love about this experience are two things in particular. First, the absence of loud music or foam parties means you can truly connect with the natural beauty around you—perfect for relaxing, reading, or just soaking in the views.
