Santa Maria

Santa Maria is a 14.27-metre sailing yacht built in 2012 and berthed at Ece Marina in Fethiye. She accommodates up to eight guests across four private cabins and is offered exclusively as a whole-boat hire. From the moment your group steps aboard, the deck, cockpit and saloon are yours alone, with no shared timetables, no unexpected companions at the breakfast table and no constraints on where the day takes you.

At 14.27 metres, Santa Maria can reach sheltered anchorages that remain inaccessible to larger gulets and motor yachts. Slipping into a quiet cove before the afternoon crowds arrive is one of the genuine pleasures of a sailing charter at this scale. When the breeze is right and the sails fill, the engine goes quiet, and that transition from mechanical noise to wind-driven calm is what sets a Fethiye sailing charter of this kind apart from a standard coastal motor cruise.

From Ece Marina, day sails into the protected waters of Göcek Gulf are an easy option to plan. For those wanting more time on the water, a multi-day blue cruise through the calmer coves and coastal passages around Fethiye is equally well suited to a yacht of this size. Each morning's route can be shaped around wind direction, sea state and the collective mood of the group, giving the trip a spontaneous quality that fixed itineraries rarely achieve. Four cabins at this length strike a sensible balance: every guest has a private berth without the boat feeling either cramped or excessively spacious.

Among Fethiye yacht charter options, a private four-cabin sailing yacht at this scale is a strong fit for groups of up to eight who want to move between anchorages under sail rather than under power. Berths at Ece Marina fill steadily through peak summer weeks, so planning ahead does matter. Get in touch for current availability and a quote tailored to your group.
