Detailed itinerary

1

Our first destination is the famous Haxhi Ali Cave, a spectacular sea cavern with towering limestone walls and glowing turquoise waters. As we venture deep inside, you’ll have around 30 minutes to swim, snorkel, and take in the cave’s natural beauty. Meanwhile, our experienced skipper will share the fascinating history of Haxhi Ali, the legendary pirate who once used this cave as his hideout.

2

Dafina Bay & Dafina Cave

Next, we sail to Dafina Cave, a hidden wonder known for its sparkling blue waters and untouched surroundings. This remote spot is ideal for snorkeling, swimming, and experiencing the raw beauty of Karaburun. You’ll have about 30 minutes to immerse yourself in this magical location, which also features a small, picturesque beach right beside the cave.

3

From Dafina, our journey continues to Bristan Bay, also known as Bear Bay. Tucked away in the heart of Karaburun’s wild coastline, this peaceful beach is surrounded by rocky hills and crystal-clear waters, making it a true hidden treasure. Take a moment to admire the breathtaking landscape, and enjoy a refreshing swim.

4

Englishman Bay

We then make our way to Englishman Bay, a quiet, remote beach with stunning cliffs and pristine waters. This peaceful retreat offers the perfect spot to swim, or simply unwind while soaking in the incredible natural scenery.

5

As we approach Lloviz Bay, one of the most scenic spots in Karaburun, we’ll introduce you to the Hidden Blue Cave. This extraordinary sea cave glows with a surreal blue light, thanks to the way sunlight reflects inside. Here, you’ll have around 45 minutes to swim, snorkel, and explore this magical marine wonder.

6

Our final and longest stop is the legendary Grama Bay, where history, adventure, and breathtaking scenery come together. Known for its golden sand, turquoise waters, and towering cliffs, this bay has been a historic haven for sailors and explorers. The ancient inscriptions carved into the rocks tell stories of those who once sought refuge here, earning it the nickname “The Bay of Writings.”

Spend about 2 hours in this spectacular paradise—relaxing on the beach, swimming in crystal-clear waters, or uncovering the bay’s rich history. Whether you’re looking for adventure, relaxation, or both, Grama Bay offers an experience you’ll never forget.
