The Onboard Experience
Adventures Above and Below
Where traditional sailing meets modern recreation.
Bella Mare's impressive collection of water toys transforms every anchorage into a playground of possibilities. The 115HP service boat provides swift transport to secluded beaches, while the jet ski and Seabob offer exhilarating aquatic adventures. Twin canoes and two paddle boards invite peaceful exploration of hidden coves, complemented by water skis, wakeboard, and ringo for those seeking more dynamic thrills.
On deck, thoughtfully designed spaces cater to every mood and moment. Generous sunbathing areas with premium sun beds accommodate the full complement of twelve guests, while retractable awnings provide welcome shade during the midday sun. The covered dining area creates an elegant setting for al fresco meals, enhanced by the American bar where expert crew craft refreshing drinks throughout the day.
Modern entertainment amenities include a comprehensive TV/DVD/CD system, while traditional games like backgammon, rummy, and playing cards provide timeless diversions. Professional navigation and sailing equipment enable authentic blue cruise experiences when conditions permit, allowing guests to experience the pure joy of wind-powered cruising across the Aegean's crystalline waters.
Guest Accommodation
Havens of Tranquil Rest
Six intimate retreats designed for perfect repose.
Bella Mare's accommodation philosophy centres on creating intimate sanctuaries where guests can retreat from the Mediterranean sun and sea breeze. Her six double cabins, including two generous master suites and four thoughtfully appointed doubles, provide comfortable havens for up to twelve guests, each featuring individual climate control to ensure perfect sleeping conditions throughout warm summer nights.
Every cabin boasts its own private en-suite with shower and home-style toilet facilities, eliminating the compromises often found on traditional vessels. Premium linens and bath towels are provided, while ample storage and thoughtful lighting create a refined atmosphere reminiscent of a boutique hotel. The vessel's 8-metre beam allows for surprisingly spacious cabin layouts, with comfortable double beds and sufficient headroom throughout.
The separation between guest and crew quarters ensures privacy and tranquillity, while the vessel's solid construction and modern insulation provide peaceful nights at anchor, free from the sounds of wind and waves that might disturb lighter vessels.
Cruising Regions
The Waters She Calls Home
From Türkiye to Greece — every voyage, a new chapter.
Bella Mare charts a course through Türkiye and Greece, offering an extraordinary range of coastlines, cultures, and hidden anchorages. Each region brings its own character — from secluded coves to storied harbours — woven together by the timeless rhythm of the sea.
Where East Meets West on Water
Bella Mare's home waters along Turkey's Aegean coast offer some of the Mediterranean's most spectacular cruising grounds. From her base in Bodrum, this elegant gulet opens doors to the pristine Gulf of Gökova, where ancient ruins crown pine-forested hillsides and crystal-clear waters invite swimming and snorkelling. Her shallow 3.5-metre draft allows access to secluded anchorages in Fethiye's famous lagoons and the hidden coves of Göcek's twelve islands.
The Turkish Riviera's rich maritime heritage comes alive aboard this traditional vessel, as her experienced captain navigates routes once sailed by ancient traders and modern adventurers alike. From the cosmopolitan marina culture of Marmaris to the unspoiled wilderness of the Datça Peninsula, Bella Mare provides an authentic platform for discovering Turkey's legendary hospitality and diverse coastal landscapes.
With comprehensive water sports equipment and professional crew service, every Turkish anchorage becomes an opportunity for adventure, whether exploring Byzantine ruins at Gemiler Island, swimming in the therapeutic waters of Cleopatra's Bath, or simply enjoying traditional Turkish cuisine prepared fresh each day by the onboard chef.
