Mayla

Mayla is a 12.35-metre sailing yacht built in 2012, berthed at Ece Marina in Fethiye Bay. Three private cabins sleep up to six guests, and the yacht is available exclusively as a whole-boat charter for a single private group. No other passengers share the deck, the cockpit, or any space on board at any point during the charter period.

The most practical distinction between Mayla and the motor yachts or gulets that dominate this stretch of coastline is her shallow draught. Narrow inlets, sheltered anchorages, and tucked-away coves that deeper hulls are forced to bypass become genuinely reachable stops. On days when the breeze is steady and the sails fill cleanly, the engine can be switched off entirely, and the yacht moves at the pace of the wind. The shift in atmosphere that follows, with only the sound of water against the hull, is something no motor vessel can replicate.

From Ece Marina, a Fethiye blue cruise can be planned to include the Göcek islands, the Ölüdeniz lagoon, Butterfly Valley, and the more remote bays along the Teke Peninsula. Daily routes can be shaped around wind conditions, sea state, and the group's own mood rather than a locked-in programme, keeping the schedule genuinely open from one morning to the next. For groups who prefer day sails out of Fethiye and back, without committing to a multi-day passage, that is equally easy to arrange from this base.

The three-cabin layout suits couples, families travelling with children, and small groups of friends well. The open deck and cockpit provide generous outdoor space both under way and at anchor. The ability to reach shallow, calm spots inaccessible to larger vessels adds real variety over the course of a week. For anyone planning a Fethiye yacht charter who wants a sailing yacht rather than a motor-powered alternative, Mayla is a well-proportioned and purposeful choice.
