8 DAYS BLUE CRUISE BODRUM - CYCLADES - MYKONOS ITINERARY:
Day 1 - Bodrum
Welcome to Bodrum, Turkey! Jump on board to meet your captain, crew and fellow
travellers. After meeting with your tour leader in the afternoon, well start to
explore the famous night life of Bodrum with our new travel mates. Bodrum is the
centre of night life in the Aegean region of Turkey and known for its amazing
beaches and gullet cruise trips. History of Bodrum dates back to the 12th
century B.C. The city was named Halicarnassus, which was the birthplace of
Herodotus; the Father of History who lived in the 5th century B.C. The Mausoleum
of King Mausolus (350 B.C.) which is one of the Seven Wonders of the World is
located in Bodrum. Thats the only structure that survived from the Classical Era
is the Amphitheatre. It is one of the oldest theatres in Anatolia with a
capacity of 13.000 people, and is still hosting many shows and concerts for the
art-lovers of Bodrum. Another place that you should visit whilst in Bodrum is
the landmark of the city Castle of Saint Peter. It is one of the best preserved
pieces of architecture with a history that dates back to the Middle Ages. Myndos
Gate through which Alexander the Great entered Halicarnassus is another place
that you should not miss.
Day 2 - Bodrum - Kos
(Breakfast and lunch included)
This morning we will cruise to Kos (Cos), the birth place of Hippocrates, the
Father of Medical Sciences. Kos is the second largest island of the 12
Dodecanese islands and has a very mild climate and very fertile lands. The
island houses a 560-year-old tree, a 211-year-old fountain and a 290 km long
beach. You may take a swim in Lambi Beach which is very close to Kos Harbour.
Overnight at Kos.
Day 3 - Levita or Amorgos
(Breakfast and lunch included)
Early morning we pull anchor and start the sail to Amorgos. Amorgos is one of
the popular islands in Greece with white houses, crystal clear water and a
peaceful atmosphere. It is no coincidence that Luc Besson chose to shoot the
first part of the film The Big Blue here. Once only visited by young travellers,
Amorgos has become quite a trendy island since the film was released, and it is
no surprise that you will find more adventurous people here than usual. The
coastline is 112 kms long, surrounded by impressive mountains and rocky hills
and the island is one of the best spots to taste traditional Greek cuisine and
wine. In the evening you will have free time to visit the island on your own.
Depending on the weather/wind conditions we may sail to Levita instead of
Amorgos. Levita is also a popular island on the Aegean Sea famous for its white
houses, long beaches and peaceful atmosphere.
Day 4 - Levita or Amorgos - Santorini
(Breakfast and lunch included)
As the sun comes up we head for the magic summer madness of Santorini. It has
been said that the sunsets in Santorini are the best in the world. From the
Caldera, watch breathtaking views of the volcano and neighbouring islands.
Santorini is one of the major tourist attractions of Europe with its marvellous
climate and perfect observation conditions, you will experience a wild beauty
created from a volcano that lies in the middle of the bay. Today you will have
free time to explore the island.
Day 5 - Santorini - Ios
(Breakfast and lunch included)
Early this morning we pull anchor and start the sail to Ios. A lazy day ahead
filled with sun tanning, listening to music and on board meals. We stop at an
ideal swimming spot on the way to Ios - the famous tourist destination. Visitors
come for its golden beaches and the characteristic Aegean architecture. Ios is
well known as the party island with the lively atmosphere and the endless fun.
The capital is built at the point where the ancient city was, where white houses
unfold and its windmills and narrow small roads can be seen on the hill tops. We
remain floating in the bay over night.
Day 6 - Ios - Paros - Naxos
(Breakfast and lunch included)
We depart Ios for Naxos. On the way we stop for a swimming break in Paros. Then
we sail to Naxos.The island of Naxos is the largest and most central island in
the Cyclades. Approaching the island by boat, you can see two small islands to
the left and right of the harbour, one with the little church of Myrtidiotissa,
and the other called Palatia which is linked to Naxos Town. The imposing gate,
Portara is an ancient marble temple dedicated to Apollo. Ligdamis ordered this
to be built in the gods honour in the 6th century B.C After the orientation walk
in this impressive island you will have more free time to explore the town and
to swim in the warm waters of the Aegean Sea - with an optional excursion.
Day 7 - Naxos - Mykonos
(Breakfast and lunch included)
Departing from Naxos in the small hours of the morning we head for Mykonos. It
is no coincidence that this, the most cosmopolitan of all Greek islands,
attracts so many visitors from the entire globe. Here the steep mountains to be
encountered in most of the Cyclades islands give way to low, rocky hills which
combine with superb beaches. The capital Hora, with its colourful harbour in
which little fishing boats nest happily side by side with luxury yachts,
presents quite a different picture from that of the majority of Aegean island
towns. Mykonos is spread out over a flat area, and the whitewashed streets stand
as brilliant white cubic houses with stepped walls for sitting on.
Day 8 - Mykonos
(Breakfast included)
After breakfast your blue cruise concludes at 10:30am. We hope your blue cruise
was a memorable one and we would like to see you in future in one of our blue
cruises again. Have a nice trip back home and thanks for choosing TravelShop
