Alanya Boat Trip with Lunch and Swim Stops Best Price

Alanya Boat Trip with Lunch at a Great Price

This full-day Alanya boat trip is the most affordable way to spend a day out on the Turkish Riviera. A single ticket buys the sailing out of Alanya Harbour, three anchored swimming breaks, a hot meal at midday, soft drinks whenever you want one and the minibus that brings you down from your hotel and takes you back again. Nothing essential is left to pay for once you are on board.

Leaving Alanya Harbour

A shared minibus works along the hotel strip and sets everyone down at the quay, which removes the taxi fare and the parking problem in one go. Nobody is allocated a seat: take the covered lower deck if you want shade or climb to the open top if you want sun, at no difference in price. After a short talk from the crew about where everything is kept, the ropes go and the boat is clear of the harbour by ten.

Alanya Castle and the Red Tower from the Sea

The opening leg tracks the base of the castle promontory. Water level is the one angle that puts the rock, the fortifications along the ridge and the red-brick tower on the shoreline into a single frame, along with the row of vaulted docks the Seljuks cut into the coast next to it. You get all of that without buying a castle ticket or walking up the hill in thirty-degree heat.

Sea Caves Around the Peninsula

Past the point the engine drops to idle in front of the hollows worn into the cliff: Pirates Cave, Lovers Cave and the Phosphorus Cave, the last of them named for the odd glow the water takes on inside. The boat stays outside and nobody transfers to a smaller craft, so this stretch costs nothing extra and asks nothing of you. Your guide talks through what each opening is while the hull drifts along the rock.

Three Swimming Stops Included

The anchor goes down three times on this affordable Alanya boat tour: at the old dockyard, out from Cleopatra Beach and finally in Ulas Bay. Roughly half an hour at each one is enough to actually swim rather than just cool off. You get in and out from the stern platform and there is fresh water on board to rinse off afterwards, which is one more thing a beach club would charge you for.

Lunch and Soft Drinks on Board

The midday meal happens while the boat sits still at anchor, and its cost sits inside the ticket you have already bought. Expect grilled chicken, pasta and a salad put together that morning, with soft drinks poured through the day. A meat-free plate can be arranged if you mention it at the time of booking. Only alcohol, ice cream and packet snacks are charged on board, so a modest amount of cash covers the whole day.

The price carries your transfers both ways, the full day of sailing, the meal, the soft drinks, a working crew with a guide, and insurance. One thing worth keeping in mind: the hour printed on your voucher is when the boat leaves the quay, not when the minibus reaches your hotel. That pickup is earlier, and the office confirms the time to you once your booking is complete.
