Santa Maria

Santa Maria is a sailing yacht built in 2012, measuring 14.27 metres in length and based at Ece Marina on Turkey's Turquoise Coast. With four cabins and berths for eight guests, she offers the kind of compact, responsive size that suits smaller private groups who want to move freely between anchorages rather than commit to a fixed harbour itinerary.

Ece Marina sits at the heart of Fethiye Bay, one of the most richly varied sailing grounds on the Turkish Mediterranean. From this base, Santa Maria can head towards the sheltered inlets of the Göcek Gulf, the waters around Ölüdeniz, or the more remote reaches of the Bozburun peninsula, depending on what the group prefers and how long they want to be at sea. Day cruises and multi-day blue cruise routes are both well within reach. The real advantage of a sailing yacht over a motor cruiser here is the ability to use the consistent summer winds: on a good day, the engine stays off and progress is made under canvas alone.

The four cabins sleep eight guests in total, and the entire yacht is reserved exclusively for one private group. Every shared space, the cockpit, the deck, and the saloon, belongs solely to your party throughout the charter. This setup works particularly well for families, groups of close friends, or couples travelling together who value having the yacht to themselves.

A charter aboard Santa Maria is not about speed or square footage. It is about choosing a morning anchorage, reading the wind, and arriving somewhere quiet before the afternoon crowds appear. For anyone researching Fethiye yacht charter or a sailing-focused blue cruise in this part of the Aegean-Mediterranean coast, she represents a credible and well-proportioned option.
