Marmaris boat trip: Swim & snorkel five bays

You swim at five different stops, not one.

A full-day boat trip from Hisaronu (30 minutes from Marmaris) sails through the Aegean, stopping to swim and snorkel at Camelia Island, Dişlice Island, Bencik Bay, Rabbit Island and Selimiye bay. The boat includes lunch and unlimited soft drinks; a live English or Russian-speaking guide leads the day; hotel pickup and drop-off are included.

The experience

The boat leaves Hisaronu harbor in the morning and spends seven hours moving between five swimming stops across the Aegean coast. You swim in turquoise water at each one, with time to snorkel on the deserted beaches. Lunch is served onboard, and soft drinks flow throughout the day: no need to budget for food or refreshments once you're on the water.

Selimiye bay and Camelia Island are the named stops, but the route also takes in Dişlice Island, Bencik Bay and Rabbit Island, so the day moves between different water and shoreline rather than anchoring in one place. A guide in English or Russian walks you through the history of the area and the bays themselves. The pace is built around swimming: you get time in the water at each stop, then back on deck to dry off and cruise to the next one.

Hotel pickup and drop-off from Marmaris are included, so the only logistics are showing up at your hotel in the morning. The boat is wheelchair accessible, and the day suits all fitness levels: swimming is optional, and you can stay on deck if you prefer. Souvenir photos and alcoholic drinks are available to purchase onboard.

How far is Hisaronu from Marmaris?

Hisaronu harbor is 30 minutes from Marmaris, where the boat departs. Hotel pickup from Marmaris is included, so you don't need to arrange your own transport to the harbor.

What exactly happens at each swimming stop?

At each of the five bays (Camelia Island, Dişlice Island, Bencik Bay, Rabbit Island and Selimiye) the boat anchors and you have time to swim and snorkel in the water. The stops rotate through different parts of the Aegean coast, so you're not returning to the same place.

Do I need swimming experience to join?

The tour suits all fitness levels and swimming is optional. You can stay on deck if you prefer not to swim. The boat is wheelchair accessible, and infants and small children can travel in a pram or stroller.
