Turkey is the Mediterranean's best-value crewed cruising and its most opaque pricing, and the two facts are connected. The boat most people want here is a gulet, gulets are sold crewed and on enquiry, and the only public Turkish figure in this record comes from a conventional bareboat operator's base at Fethiye.
Ask several charter companies what your week costs
The one published Turkish figure
For yacht hire, Turkey has one published figure in this record: The Moorings publishes $7,224 to $31,229 for a 7 day charter for 2 people out of Fethiye. That is the highest entry figure of the five Moorings destinations in this record, above Croatia at $1,885, Greece at $2,634, the BVI at $3,284 and the Bahamas at $5,579. It reflects the fleet at one base rather than the cost of the country, which is worth holding on to before concluding that Turkey is expensive.
Crewed yacht charter, Turkey: what the week usually includes
More than a Croatian or Greek one. Turkish crewed charters more often include food and soft drinks in the price, and the crew-to-guest ratio tends to be higher. That makes two headline numbers from two countries genuinely hard to compare, and it is the first question to ask when you are given a figure: what is in it.
How the gulet market is priced
Gulets are sold by the boat or by the cabin, crewed, usually with meals, and mostly on enquiry. One broker is the exception: guletBroker publishes Turkish crewed gulets by class, 7,000 to 9,000 EUR a week for a standard boat in low season and 14,000 to 17,000 in high season, with named boats from 11,500 EUR out of Fethiye, read on 11 September 2026.

Is food included on a Turkish charter?
More often than in Croatia or Greece, particularly on gulets. It is the main reason two similar headline figures are not comparable, so ask what is in the price.
