GÖCEK has long been a desirable destination for both Turkish and foreign yachtsmen, as well as a favorite stopover for jet-setters and celebrities alike.
This paradisical village of two-thousand inhabitants is only 20 minutes by car from Dalaman International Airport , which can be reached in under 1 hour from Istanbul.
It is not just world-class yachting that makes Göcek a special place; it is the way the culture and natural surroundings blend in such a serene way. Strict development laws ensure that this very unique setting is protected; and since there is no oversupply of hotels, it is never crowded; majority of visitors are usually sophisticated travellers like yourself.
Every year around the 19th of May an important Regatta Week is organised at Port Göcek, with the cooperation of the Göcek Yacht Club, and the Turkish Offshore Racing Club. The quality of the organisation, the magnificiency of the parties and the natural beauty of the area made this unique event very popular among seamen and racers. This regatta became a prestigious event that keeps on attracting every year more and more competitors from all over the world.
