Authentic Mediterranean Sailing Adventures
Experience the Mediterranean as it was meant to be explored—under sail, in intimate groups, aboard beautiful traditional wooden sailing vessels called gulets. The Dutch and English company ScicSailing—Sailing Cruises in Comfort—offers a unique blend of adventure, culture, and relaxation while cruising the stunning coastlines of Turkey and Greece. For many, ScicSailing cruises offer the ultimate spiritual purification: Once the sails are hoisted, guests can unwind as the cares of everyday life drift away on the bobbing blue waves.

The Fleet
ScicSailing’s fleet consists of meticulously maintained traditional wooden gulets, ranging from 20 to 40 metres (65 to 130 feet) in length. These magnificent vessels combine classic sailing heritage with modern comfort, featuring spacious decks for sunbathing, comfortable outdoor dining areas, and well-appointed cabins with private ensuite facilities. Each vessel accommodates 4 to 16 guests, allowing for an atmosphere that’s both intimate and friendly.
Destinations
ScicSailing operates primarily along Turkey's stunning Turquoise Coast and throughout the Greek Dodecanese Islands. These routes offer a perfect mix of historical sites, pristine beaches, and authentic coastal villages. Popular itineraries include the Gulf of Fethiye, the Gulf of Gökova, and island-hopping adventures among the Greek islands.
The Experience
Sailing with ScicSailing means embracing a relaxed pace and a flexible itinerary. Each day brings new discoveries as you explore hidden coves, ancient ruins, and charming coastal villages. Mornings might begin with a swim in crystal-clear waters, followed by a leisurely breakfast on deck. Throughout the day, the captain will navigate to spectacular locations, many accessible only by boat, where you can snorkel, kayak, or explore ashore.
