Violet

Violet is a 12.5-metre sailing yacht built in 2011 and berthed at Ece Marina in Fethiye. She accommodates up to six guests across three private cabins with six berths, and she is chartered exclusively as a whole boat for one private group. Every cabin, the saloon and the full length of the deck belong entirely to your party from the moment you cast off to the moment you return.

The experience of a sailing yacht charter is distinct in a way that is immediately obvious once the sails are raised. The engine falls silent, propulsion becomes wind-driven, and the deck quietens enough that a normal conversation carries from bow to stern. On Violet, the shape of each day is yours to decide: an early-morning anchor in a sheltered cove, a long swim before the bay wakes up, lunch on deck in the afternoon breeze, then a sail timed to catch the building afternoon wind toward the next stop. At 12.5 metres, there is genuine deck space for six people to sunbathe, eat and read without crowding each other.

Ece Marina provides a well-positioned base for a Fethiye yacht charter. From there you can plan a day sail through the islands and coves of Fethiye Bay, or arrange a longer blue cruise that reaches the wooded inlets around Göcek and the quieter stretches of coastline further south. The route, the pace and the stopping points are entirely your own choice, which is the practical advantage of a private sailing yacht charter over any fixed departure.

As a 2011 build, Violet meets current safety requirements and is well-proportioned for a group of six. For anyone weighing a gulet charter against a sailing yacht charter in Fethiye, the difference is tangible: Violet runs quieter, responds to the wind rather than fighting it, and puts guests considerably closer to the water in feel and experience.
