How many guests can a catamaran accommodate?

Typically 6–12 people, depending on size and layout.

What is usually included in the charter fee?

The yacht and standard equipment are included. Fuel, food, marina fees, and crew are extra.

What is the sailing season in Turkey?

The best period is May to October, with calmer seas in June and September, and lively harbors in July and August.

Is a catamaran suitable for families with children?
