How to rent a yacht on Turkey's Antalya coast, step by step
To rent a yacht here, choose the boat that fits where you stay and how many you are, pick a date and guest count on its page and send the request. The team confirms it, nothing is paid online, you pay in euros on the day, and cancellation is free up to 48 hours before the start.
Step 1: start from where you are staying
On the Antalya coast the boat you rent depends first on where it boards. This catalogue has charters from Kundu Marina, from a marina near Kumköy, from the Manavgat River, from the harbour in Side and from Alanya's harbour area. Belek has no marina of its own, so Belek guests board at Kundu Marina, and nothing in this catalogue leaves from Kemer.
Pick the departure on your side of the coast first; it decides the scenery, the transfer and the shortlist of boats. Which departure port matches each resort to its nearest boarding point and tells you what each coast shows you from the water.
Step 2: count your group, children included
Every price is for the whole boat, so the head count matters for capacity, not for the bill per person. Children count as guests on board. With up to 12 people, every boat in the catalogue is open to you. Beyond that, the choice is the Side motor yacht (up to 25), the Kundu jacuzzi yacht (up to 28) or the Manavgat gulet (up to about 50).
If you are travelling with children, note their ages now; you will put them in the request. Yacht rental with kids covers what families should check.
Step 3: choose the boat and the session
Each yacht has its own page with its route, what is on board, what the price includes and the live starting price for the whole boat. Starting prices run from €490 to €850; yacht rental prices explains what each one covers.
Sessions differ by boat. The two Kundu Marina yachts offer a day session and a sunset session from 15:30 to 20:30 (5 hours): the 12-guest yacht's day runs 09:30–15:00, the 28-guest yacht's 09:00–15:00. The Kumköy yacht runs about 7 hours from pickup to drop-off, the gulet about 7 hours on the water, the VIP boat and the Side motor yacht about 6 hours, and the Alanya boat 6 hours. The motor yacht can move its whole programme to the evening on request.
Step 4: send the request with the details that matter
On the yacht's page, choose the date and the number of guests and send the request. It goes to the team and shows as pending until it is confirmed. A good request saves a round of questions, so add the following in your message or on WhatsApp.
- Where you are staying, so we can confirm a transfer where the boat includes one, or quote one where it costs extra.
- The ages of any children in the group.
- Which session you want, if the boat has more than one.
- Any celebration: decoration is on record for the gulet with 2–3 days' notice, and the motor yacht's menu is agreed in advance.
- Questions about drinks or alcohol, which differ boat by boat.
Step 5: confirmation, the day itself and paying
The team confirms your request. Where a hotel transfer applies, the pickup time is confirmed after booking; where the boat meets you at the departure point, you are told where to be. On the day you board with your captain: every programme on record is run by the boat's captain, who also decides on extra stops and swims according to sea and weather. You do not sail the boat yourself.
You pay in euros on the day. There is no online payment and no online deposit. If plans change, cancellation is free up to 48 hours before the start. To begin, open the full list of yachts and pick the boat that fits; hotel transfers and meeting points tells you how you get to it.

Questions guests ask
Do I need a boat licence to rent a yacht here?
You do not sail the boat yourself. Every charter in this catalogue is run by the boat's captain, so you book the boat with its captain and simply come on board.
What happens after I send a booking request?
The request goes to the team and stays pending until they confirm it. Once it is confirmed, you get the details for the day, including the pickup time where a transfer applies.
Can I cancel a yacht rental if our plans change?
Yes. Cancellation is free up to 48 hours before the start. Because nothing is paid online, there is nothing to refund.
Do I have to pay anything online to rent a yacht?
No. There is no online payment and no online deposit. You pay in euros on the day of the charter.
