The major route of a BLUE CRUISE is this itinerary into the gulf of Gokova. This is where the whole idea of the Blue Cruise has started. We suggest first time travelers to try this balance of small coves, beautiful scenery and ancient ruins of the Cleopatra Island. Lots of swims in secluded beautiful bays and no big harbours, (the Gökova Gulf is a protected National resort) here are only 3-4 fishing hamlets.
Suggested Airport: Bodrum-Milas, Turkey. (only 35 km to Bodrum harbour)
Itinerary: Bodrum - Çökertme - Ayinda bay - Cleopatra’s Island/ Karacasogut - Tuzla Bay - Kisebuku - Pabuc burnu - Bodrum
Bodrum was home to many civilizations and some you still can see: the Amphitheatre; one of the oldest theatres in Anatolia with a capacity of 13.000 guests, and it is still hosting many shows and concerts during the summer. The ruins of the Mausoleum of King Mausolus which was one of the Seven Wonders of the World is in this city, named Halicarnassus in antique times The next place that you should see when you arrive Bodrum is the landmark of the city 'Castle of Saint Peter' which has a history goes back to the Medieval Century and today it houses the world's largest and first underwater archaeology museum. One that you should not miss; is the 'Myndos Gate' where Alexander the Great had a hard time got into Halicarnassus.
