The motor hums, the Aegean stretches like polished glass, and the boat eases away from Fethiye’s port with the smell of salt and grilled fish already on the air. Over six hours you’ll hop between islands — Katrancı, Kızıl, Göcek, Atbuku, Yassı (Flat) and others — each cove offering a new shade of turquoise and a different challenge to your senses: caves that whisper, cliffs that dare you to look down, beaches that demand bare feet.
