Sureyya

Built in 2000, the 33-metre wooden gulet Sureyya operates out of Bodrum Marina with five cabins accommodating up to twelve guests. She is offered exclusively as a whole-boat charter, meaning every cabin, every deck space and every shared area belongs to a single group for the length of the voyage. This setup suits families who prefer not to share their holiday with other guests, groups of friends travelling together, and corporate groups looking for a private setting on the water.

What distinguishes Sureyya from many gulets of her era is a genuinely functional sailing rig. When the wind cooperates, the engine is switched off and the boat sails under canvas. The shift is noticeable at once: the mechanical hum fades, the sound of water against the hull takes over, and speed becomes a matter of wind rather than throttle. Guests who have previously chartered motor-only gulets tend to notice the contrast, and it remains one of the defining features of time spent aboard.

At 33 metres, there is genuine room for twelve people to spread out across the boat. Sunloungers amidships catch the afternoon light well into early evening, while the shaded stern area naturally becomes the social hub as the coastline drifts by. Once anchored, the bow offers a quieter spot for those seeking it. Swimming off the stern platform and open-air dinners on deck after sunset round out a typical day aboard.

For a Bodrum yacht charter, guests can plan a shorter three to five night route through the sheltered bays of the Bodrum peninsula, or choose a longer blue cruise extending into the Gulf of Gökova, the Hisarönü Gulf or the Datça peninsula. Throughout the voyage, a professional crew handles navigation, anchoring and provisioning, leaving guests free to focus on the sea itself.

Gulet charter availability out of Bodrum tends to fill steadily through the summer season. Contact us for availability and a tailored quote based on your dates and group size.
