Charter Frequently Asked Questions
Questions about cabin cruises and some of the questions and answers that come often from our customers.
Soft bags are easier to store in your cabin than hard suitcases! You may also like to bring a light day pack for optional excursions ashore. Swimming suits (it is a good idea to bring at least two as you spend most of the day in your swimming suits), T-shirts, shorts, some warmer clothes as well, especially for the cool spring and autumn nights; Mosquito repellent, plenty of efficient sun lotion (the mix of sea breeze, salt and sun is most ideal for a great tan!), good sunglasses, a hat and some aloe Vera gel or something similar to soothe any sunburns; If snorkelling is one of your favourite pastimes, we suggest you pack your own set of gear, then you won't need to adjust the mask size every time you wish to explore the depths; A sleeping bag if you are planning to sleep on deck, under the stars! (for the cooler spring/autumn months); One final word of advice: normal street shoes are definitely not acceptable on board a yacht... walking barefoot is the rule on board! However, soft-soled shoes for getting around only on deck are acceptable.
• Basic toiletries - shampoo, tooth paste, soap etc.
• Sun lotions... lots of it. If you are the light-skin type, get SPF 25 or higher.
• A second pair of prescription glasses/contact lenses if you use those.
• Any specific prescription drug you may need.
• Antihistamine and/or cold/flu medicine.
• Aspirin or equivalent.
• Antibiotic /cortisone crème.
• Sun burn medications.(Aloe Vera gel works wonders)
• Insect repellent.
• Large band aids and elastic wrap.
• Tweezers, nail clippers, a needle (for splinters)
June and September are generally hot enough to get a nice tan without the harsh summer temperatures. For those who wish to swim at any time of day and night and for those who are out and out sun worshippers, we suggest July and August. May and October expose the serene beauty of nature and this is perhaps the best time as the coves and beaches are not crowded. It occasionally rains during these months, but the rain is limited to a few hours maximum. The sun at this time of year can still provide a nice top up of vitamin D!.
Yes, children are welcome on our boats. We offer both family-only tours and mixed-age (mixed group) tours, and children can join both options. • On mixed-age tours, the minimum child age is 6 years old. • On family tours, there is no age restriction for children, so guests of all ages are welcome. This allows families to choose the experience that best suits their needs and comfort.
Gulet boats have limited energy resources, which is why it’s recommended to limit the use of air conditioning to 6-7 hours per day. This will help conserve fuel and optimize the efficiency of the boat. It will also extend the lifespan of the generator and support eco-friendly practices by relying on natural ventilation. Running the generator at night can be quite noisy and disruptive to other passengers. Therefore, it’s important to strike a balance between guest comfort and environmental responsibility.
It is customary to tip the crew at the end of your cruise. How much is left to the discretion of the passenger, but 5-10% of the charter fee is usual in Turkey. The tip is normally given to the captain, who divides it under the crew members.
