Travelers

You push off from Alanya’s harbor just after the driver drops you at the quay; the Red Tower watches you go, a brick eye fixed on the Mediterranean. The yacht eases past the castle’s stone teeth—Seljuk walls carved into the cliff in the 13th century—while the sea unfurls a wide, glittering lane ahead. Guests find a place on deck, towels and chill boxes within hand, and the captain asks where you want to go: around the peninsula, toward the Pirates’ Cave, or straight to Cleopatra Beach.

Adventure Tips

Bring reef-safe sunscreen

The Mediterranean here is home to seagrass beds; use reef-safe sunscreen and reapply regularly to protect both skin and sea life.

Pack a light wind jacket

Sea breezes can be chilly once you’re moving—bring a lightweight jacket for comfort during morning or evening cruises.

Take seasickness precautions

If you’re prone to motion sickness, take medication before boarding and position yourself mid-boat where motion is least felt.

Respect anchor zones

Ask the captain to avoid anchoring on seagrass (Posidonia) and follow guidance when entering shallow coves to minimize impact.

History

Alanya’s harbor is fringed by a 13th-century Seljuk fortress and the Red Tower, both constructed during Sultan Alaeddin Keykubad’s reign to protect the port and shipyard.

Conservation

Be mindful of Posidonia seagrass beds — avoid standing on them and ask the crew where safe anchor points are; favour operators who follow local waste and mooring guidelines.
