Prepare to set sail from the vibrant port town of Bodrum, experiencing the renowned Bodrum summer and turquoise water sailing at its best! Our Boat Spark-1 is docked at Milta Marina, right at the heart of Bodrum.
Sailing at Bodrum means; uninterrupted breeze blowing between 3-5 Beaufort, , safe and turquoise anchorage points, green hills, coolness brought by the breeze, stunning Gökova region with access to around 10 Greek islands and the Gulf of Hisarönü.
Bodrum is the first choice of all sailors who want a good sailing experience in Turkey and with all these features, in our opinion, Bodrum is one of the remarkable sailing regions in the world.
*According to www.navily.com there are 61 green (against dominant NE to W winds) mostly 4 or 5 star mooring spots within 30 nm radius which means about a half summer day of sailing away. The spots in Greek Islands within the same distance are not included in this number. If you also include 30 4–5-star green spots in Hisarönü bay (of Turkey), which is 55 nm's away, then the wider Bodrum area happen to have almost 100 beautiful turquoise Turkish bays, and in addition to that about 10 Greek Islands to explore. Another important feature is that In this area the anchorages are less crowded compared to other favorable sailing spots.
*In this area you can find the most stable summer sailing winds in the Mediterranean. Bodrum is part of Aegean and Aegean means ‘Meltemi’. It is the wind that blows between May through October due to clashing weather systems over Balkans and Anatolia. It sometimes drops or oppositely gets really strong (especially in the western parts of Aegean Sea). Nevertheless, Bodrum and Gokova forms a good and wide channel for Meltemi to keep its strength between 3-5 Beaufort almost all day and every day. It generally drops with the sun set which enable calm nights.
*Meltemi is also a wind that you may beg for it in hot summer days. Being a Northern wind, it cools down the temperatures and brings ventilation and dry weather. AC in a boat in an Aegean summer night is not of a necessity. These conditions have created a special charm for the Aegean waters throughout the entire maritime history.
*Beside the joy of sailing in the wind, the area features relaxed experience. For over 35 years of sailing in this area we have not witnessed any stoppage in water traffic during summer time. The wind rarely exceeds 5 Beaufort
*The Gökova sailing means also sailing in a spacious area (44 nm's to 13 nm's). Hisarönü bay is similar in terms of width and depth. While providing safe and calm anchorage in numerous bays, it also gives the feeling of open sea with its constant strong wind. The wind is mostly constant because there are few islands to block and destabilize the westerly blowing meltemi.
*Almost 90 percent of the mooring spots are surrounded with pine forests, and almost all of them provides clear turquoise waters. You'll love swimming in every spot. There are also 3 ancient sites (Knidos Antique City, Sedir Island Historical sight and Bodrum fortress) that you can anchor right in front and visit. Additionally, are numerous of walking terrains and seaside restaurants which you can enjoy.
