What is it like?
This will be the 5th year of what Ted & Liv have dreamt of for a decade, after meeting on the historical Lycian Way in Turkey. In the inaugural boat trip in 2022, Ted & Liv looked at each other in the eye and agreed "this is the best day of our lives". It was easy! We repeated the success with equally spectacular trips in 2023, 2024 and 2025
2026 promises to be greater still. Let's go cove hopping along the most epic Mediterranean coastline of Turkey. You will get to hang out with a group of 8 high-vibe, like-minded people, eat grass fed, organic, fresh meals made by our personal chef. No seed oils in boat's kitchen!
​
Everyday, we will wake up at a different azure blue cove, morning dip, hike, have breakfast and make our way to our second bay to enjoy more swimming and sunshine. After our lunch and Turkish coffee break, we will head on to our next bay to spend the night. More adventures in the afternoon usually end with wine and beer sipping while watching the sunset and feeling the Vitamin D boost on your skin. Days end with an EPIC dinner (usually with some Turkish RAKI) every night that will not have you miss your favorite restaurant.
Prayers, meditation, philosophical conversations, silliness and singing are the most common activites on the boat. Off the boat, we hike, crawl, jump, eat wild fruits and SWIM!
But no matter what we do, we have a good old time and accept each other as we are. Because that's what the Mediterranean sunsets call for. They open your heart and make you love people.
