About Us
Mediterranean Moments, Crafted With Care
Family-run yacht experiences along Türkiye’s Turquoise Coast since 2005
Welcome to BoatTripTurkey.com, a family-owned yacht charter and boat tour company based in the beautiful harbour town of Kaş.
For nearly two decades, we’ve been creating relaxed, authentic experiences along the Turquoise Coast — from Kaş and Kalkan to the timeless waters of Kekova.
We believe the most memorable journeys aren’t rushed or crowded. They’re personal, thoughtfully hosted, and shaped around the rhythm of the sea. Whether you’re discovering hidden coves, swimming above ancient ruins, or simply enjoying the sun on deck, our role is simple: to take care of everything, so you can fully enjoy the moment.
Our Story
BoatTripTurkey.com was founded by Captain Ergun Dündar, whose life has always been guided by the sea. What began as a passion for sailing and exploring the coastline around Kaş naturally evolved into hosting guests who wanted something more meaningful than a standard boat tour.
Together with his wife, Captain Merve Dündar, the company grew into a family-run operation built on trust, warmth, and genuine hospitality. While Ergun brings decades of experience navigating the bays and islands of the region, Merve ensures that every guest feels welcomed, safe, and cared for — from the first message to the final goodbye.
Today, BoatTripTurkey.com remains proudly independent, rooted in Kaş, and dedicated to offering experiences that feel authentic, unrushed, and deeply connected to place.
