Hills of different sizes with vineyards and
sunflower fields as far as the eye can see. This is the region of
Turkey known as Trakya. It is separated from the rest of Turkey by
the Bosphorus, the Sea of Marmara and the Dardenelle Straits. |
South of the majestic Taurus Mountains, lie the
shores of the Mediterranean Sea with its beaches of fine sand, its
vistas of uncommon beauty, its many ancient ruins, its hidden coves
and alluring vacation getaways. |
This central region of the country hosts a number
of interesting sites. Currently the center of modern Turkey's
political life, it has been the center of a number of important
culture and civilizations in the past. |

With its high mountain ranges, plateaus, plains and
lakes, its creek and river beds splashed with hues of purple, brown,
gray, yellow and red, and some of the best Turkish architecture
anywhere, this region of Anatolia is like a historical documentary
on ancient life. |
If one were to claim that the most scenic vistas in
Anatolia can be found on the coasts of the Aegean, he could not be
accused of exaggerating. In the words of Heredotus, the Aegean
coasts "have the most beautiful sky and the best climate in the
world. |
Beaches that seem to go on forever, mountains
covered with verdant green and picturesque valley and plains. Fields
of tea, hazelnuts, tobacco and corn. The winding blacktop road
following the near strip of beach bounded by steep mountains
falling, it would seem, straight into the sea. |

Voyage is a Mediterranean classic for yachting and
sailing through of the Aegean and the Mediterranean. The waters that
once were the medium of trade for ancient civilizations. The
numerous boat, gulet and yacht services that you would give yourself
opportunity to explore the silent and relaxing bays, hidden coves,
and warm yourself under the Mediterranean sun. A "Blue Cruise" is
-first of all- a lovely escape from the drabness of daily life for a
period. On the Blue Cruise one sails along the southwestern Turkish
coastline, into solitary bays, crystal clear and virgin waters,
picturesque small villages and places of antiquity. Wherever you
come from and however old you are, after a week or two at sea,
you'll become one heart with the nature. Both flesh and spirit will
be healty and happy.
