Life on a blue cruise gulet board

LIFE ON GULET BOARD
Let us imagine now: ‘A nice dream, a little holiday, and endless blue…’ Blue cruise is an uncompleted story for some, but it is at the same time a never-ending story because it is a completely different world. Let us go on to imagine: on a blue and clean sea you are under sail sometimes with sails sometimes with power. After a three hour pleasant cruise let go the anchor in a heavenly bay in the middle of the nature!

Like a volunteer guide the captain tells you where you are then (sometimes in a historical site and sometimes in a deserted bay in the middle of the nature) and what kind of activities you may attend here. That means our captain always contacts to you and he simultaneously gives orders to his crew in order to make you comfortable

In the kitchen the head cook is on the job, as it is nearly time for lunch. Moreover you are all hungry and you smell delicious meals. Our seaman is always at your disposal. It is too hot and you would like to freshen and you let yourself go in cool and crystal clear waters.

After you swim for sometime you come up on the gulet and you see that drinks you wanted from our seaman to bring are already ready. While you sip your drink, you sunbathe, chatter or read a book. The bell of the gulet rings twice: ‘Ding! Dong!’ Yes, the lunch is ready. Various fruits and vegetables are on the table.

What a skillful man this head cook! Everyone takes their seats and eat delicious meals by chattering cheerfully. Everyone feels sluggish now. The weather is still too hot and clean relaxation cushions are waiting for you in the shadow of tent on the front deck. It is time for a nap!

All of you had fun and relaxed. It is going to get dark soon, that’s why our captain starts the engine to lead to a new bay. Now you are in a new and interesting bay. 5 o’clock tea is ready. While you are sipping your tea our captain is again telling you where you are.

After the tea time you swim and freshen and it is now time to take a walk. Our seaman takes you to the shore by service boat and you are now in a forest. It is like a magic world: only you and the nature. After this refreshing walk you come back to the gulet.

Surprise! Our cook has been on the job again: wine, raki, beer, cocktails etc. and snacks. Before it gets too dark you sip your drinks and go on to have a nice chatter. The bell of the gulet rings again: ‘Ding! Dong! Ding! Dong!’

What is on the menu?
- Grilled and fresh fish, together with various delicatessen, arugula and radish… This has begun to be more and more enjoyable. It is already after midnight thanks to our delicious supper, chatter, songs, folk songs and dances… Time passes so fast. Now it is time to sleep and you fall into a deep sleep either in your dark and tranquil cabin or on deck watching the blinking and shining stars.

Next day you wake up with the first lights of sun, watch the sun rise while breathing the fresh air or recognizing the quivering fish or just lie down in your bed. It is morning and breakfast is ready. All of you are at the table on time you scheduled beforehand. After a delicious breakfast our captain eagerly tells the daily Program. Let’s see what kind of other surprises wait for before the blue cruise comes to an end.

Yes, we started our narration with a beautiful dream. I am sure you wish this dream to continue forever. As you see blue cruise is a very different world; everyday a different port or bay, a quiet or joyful program depending on your wish. That is to say it is a wonderful holiday alternative which you can spend with your beloved ones away from the big city life.
