Kalypso

Kalypso is a 13.25-metre sailing yacht built in 2008 and berthed at Gumbet Marina on the western edge of the Bodrum peninsula. She accommodates eight guests across four private cabins and is available exclusively as a whole-boat charter, meaning every square metre on board belongs to one group alone for the full duration of the hire. In a Bodrum yacht charter market dominated by gulets and motorboats, she offers a distinctly wind-powered alternative for groups who want their time at sea measured in nautical miles rather than engine hours.

She is operated on a bareboat basis: the group assumes full navigational responsibility and must bring a skipper holding a valid offshore licence with genuine blue-water experience. That arrangement delivers complete autonomy. Every anchorage, every departure window, every course correction belongs entirely to the group, shaped by wind, light and personal preference rather than a fixed programme. For seasoned sailors this means serious time under canvas without compromise; for two couples or a family it means moving at a pace that feels genuinely their own.

Gumbet Marina's position gives prompt access to open Aegean waters. A three or four-day blue cruise plan allows the group to reach quieter bays and sheltered coves at a relaxed rhythm. A full week lets a proper sailing routine take shape: morning passages carried by the breeze, afternoons at anchor in clear water, evenings spent on deck watching the light fade from the coastline. Routes can extend further along the Aegean or push toward the Mediterranean, shaped entirely around what the group chooses.

At 13.25 metres, the hull carries eight people without sacrificing sailing performance or manoeuvrability. Each of the four cabins provides adequate rest space and personal storage. The saloon and deck together handle group meals and downtime without friction, and the boat is well suited to consecutive nights at sea. For any group committed to several uninterrupted days of sailing out of Bodrum, Kalypso is a practical and capable choice.
