The 12 Island tour or cruisecan be considered as a reduced version of the famous weeklong Blue Cruise (Mavi Yolculuk). This one-day trip offers a relaxing day out by gulet the Bay of Fethiye. The boat sails along the beautiful Turquoise Coast and stops at about 4 little islands where there is ample opportunity to dive and swim in the clear blue waters of the secret coves and bays.
The main culturalhighlight at the trip is the rock painting of a fish at Bedri Rahmi Cove. This small bay is called after Bedri Rahmi Eyüboğlu (1911-1975), a famous Turkish painter and poet who during the 1970's was a pioneer of the Blue Voyage and painted this fish in 1974.
We enjoyed the dolce far niente of the cruise during our tour of Lycia in 2005.
