Itinerary Details

Day 1 (8th October 2026): ARRIVAL & SOFT LANDING (D)

Arrival in Alaçatı — Soft Landing & Welcome Evening

Upon arrival at your designated hotel in Alaçatı around 2:00 pm, you’ll have time to settle into your room, refresh, and gently arrive into the rhythm of the town.

In the late afternoon, we gather for a warm group introduction and welcome circle — an intentional moment to meet the people you’ll be sharing this journey with, set intentions, and ease into the experience together.

Afterward, enjoy free time to wander through the charming old streets of Alaçatı. Explore its cobblestone alleys lined with bougainvillea-covered stone houses, artisan boutiques, local craft shops, and cozy cafés. This is a chance to move slowly, take photos, shop for handmade pieces, or simply sit with a Turkish coffee and soak in the atmosphere.

As the evening settles in, we regroup and head to a traditional Turkish restaurant for our first shared dinner. Expect a beautiful spread of meze, fresh seasonal salads, warm bread, and classic Aegean Flavors prepared with local ingredients. This dinner is designed as a relaxed, nourishing space to connect, laugh, and begin forming the bonds that will carry through the days ahead.

Overnight: Alaçatı hotel

Day 2 (9th October 2026): Sailing Begins (B-L-D)

Sailing Begins

Enjoy a relaxed breakfast at the hotel before checking out and transferring to the marina in Alaçatı, where your private catamaran awaits.

After a short safety briefing and time to settle into your cabins, we set sail into the turquoise waters of the Aegean. The exact route is intentionally flexible and guided by wind and weather conditions — allowing the sea to lead us toward the most beautiful bays and hidden coves around Çeşme.

Along the way, we pause at serene island spots for light coastal walks, swimming, and snorkelling in

crystal-clear waters. Back onboard, you’re free to enjoy stand-up paddleboarding, optional fishing, or simply relax on deck and take in the scenery as we glide between islands.

As the sun begins to set, we gather on deck for a gentle sunset yoga session — moving, breathing, and unwinding with the rhythm of the sea.

The evening continues with a shared dinner onboard, held in a warm group circle under the open sky.

Overnight: Catamaran, anchored in a quiet bay.

Day 3 (10th October 2026): Return to shore & slow landing (B-L)

Island Hopping & Sea Rhythm

Wake gently to the stillness of the sea and begin the day with an early morning yoga session on deck — breathing in the fresh sea air as the sun rises over the water.

Afterward, enjoy a wholesome breakfast onboard as we prepare to sail again through hidden bays and islands along the Aegean coastline near Çeşme.

Throughout the day, we pause at beautiful swim spots for snorkelling, floating, and optional light hikes along quiet island shores. You may also try fishing, paddleboarding, or simply relax on deck and take in the peaceful scenery as we move from one island to another.

Lunch is served onboard the catamaran and enjoyed at a leisurely pace between sailing stops.

In the afternoon, we continue island hopping, with optional short coastal walks for those who wish to explore on foot. As the day winds down, we gather for a gentle group session and reflection circle before settling in for another calm night anchored in a secluded bay.

Arrive at marina in evening.

Overnight: in hotel.

Day 4 (11th October 2026): Aegean Aesthetics: Exploring Çeşme’s Coastal Charm (B-D)

Breakfast at hotel Discover Çeşme & Alaçatı with a traveler’s eye and a photographer’s lens. I’ll pick you up from your hotel and we’ll head straight to the stunning Çeşme Marina, where elegant yachts, sea breeze and stylish cafés set the mood. We’ll enjoy the view, snap some great photos and breathe in the Aegean air. Next, we’ll visit Çeşme Castle, perched above the town, offering panoramic views and photo ops with a historic touch. Then it’s time to unwind at Ilıca Beach, famous for its warm, shallow turquoise waters. You’ll have 30 minutes to swim, relax and soak up the sun. Finally, we’ll head to magical Alaçatı, where cobblestone streets, colorful houses, and charming vibes create a perfect ending to the day. Every corner is a postcard, and I’ll be there capturing your best moments.

In the evening, we gather for a celebratory dinner at one of Alaçatı renowned traditional Turkish restaurants. This final shared meal is a moment to reflect, connect, and close the sailing chapter of the journey together.

Overnight at Alacatti hotel

Day 5 (12th October 2026): Departure & Closing (B)

Enjoy a slow morning in Alaçatı with breakfast at the hotel and time to rest, pack, and take in the final atmosphere of the town at your own pace. You may choose to enjoy a quiet coffee nearby, revisit a favourite street in the old town, or simply relax at the hotel as the journey gently comes to a close.

Check-out from the hotel is at 12:00 PM, marking the end of the program and your departure onward with a grounded sense of rest, connection, and renewal.
