Itinerary
Depending on the location of your hotel, the pickup service starts after 09:00 o'clock in the morning.
Çamlı is a small village about 17 Km north of Marmaris. The journey by our comfortable minibus through the beautiful countryside with farmlands and pine trees is around 30 minutes. Çamlı is the place where our boats wait for you. We begin our sailing over the Gökova Gulf from this village.
This full day boat trip promises to take you towards the most stunning and graceful spots of Gokova Bay. The island is listed as a National Conservation Area due to the pristine setting that has and its unique natural beauty. According to the local legend, Antony gifted this picturesque island to Cleopatra as a symbol of love. However, even though the island is beautiful, Cleopatra did not like the sand that the beach had. As a result, Antony carried sand from Egypt in order to make her happy. Once you reach the island, you will have 3 hours to spend as you wish. The beach is spectacular with crystal clear waters and pale pink sands. Swim, snorkel or stroll around to observe the magnificent setting during your time there.
After our visit to the Island of Cleopatra your fresh cooked lunch will be served here.
Ince Kum is a National Park, much popular in the region for its fine sand and crystal clear waters. Ince Kum does mean ‘fine sands’ in Turkish. This is the place where we take our first swim break. We stay here for 45 minutes; you can swim, snorkel and play to your fill.
After our swimming break at İncekum beach, we take a break in the dark blue bay for a 45-minute swimming break.
This beautiful tour lasts for about 7 hours, and once it is over, our shuttle buses will take you back to your hotel in Marmaris.
We drop all our guests back to the hotel.

Traveler reviews
Amazing history in Cleopatra island!
It was a great experience going to Cleopatra island. The ancient amphitheatre was amazing. We also made stops to rabbit island and some other popular destinations with clear water. One of the personnel was a fellow diver so he shown us amazing hidden gems around the areas that we stopped!
I have been on better
I would prefer chairs instead of foam Mats on the floor. The lunch was fair but spaghetti was cold and chicken was processed. Pictures show grilled chicken but that’s not what we got. Cleopatra Beach. Was a good stop. The other swimming places were all the same nothing spectacular. just a chance to get wet between sun bathing
Amazing beaches, well organized tour
Beaches are magnificent! Everything is well organized, tour guides are kind and helpful. Food was ok. Experience was definitely worth the money.
