A private yacht in Alanya or in Belek: choosing the right coast
Choose a private yacht in Alanya if you are staying in central Alanya and want Alanya's castle, its Red Tower and the caves around the peninsula as your backdrop; the whole yacht starts from €580, hotel transfer included. Choose a yacht in Belek if you are staying there and would rather not travel along the coast for the day.
The first question: where are you staying?
For most people, this decides it. The round-trip hotel transfer on our yacht covers central Alanya districts; guests staying further out ask us before they book.
If your hotel is in Belek, a day on our yacht means travelling along the coast to Alanya first. For some occasions that is worth it; for others, a yacht closer to your hotel makes more sense.
It also changes the shape of the day. Time spent on the road before boarding is time not spent on the water, and for a group with small children or older relatives that difference is easy to feel by the afternoon.
What the Alanya coast gives your occasion
The Alanya route has a strong sense of place. The medieval castle sits on its headland, the octagonal Red Tower stands by the old harbour, and the rock around the peninsula is cut with caves, including Pirate Cave, the Phosphorus Cave and Lovers' Cave.
The yacht slows beside the caves and pauses in quiet bays the captain picks for swimming. Our guide to the coast from the yacht describes each part, and what we never promise about it.
What the Alanya price covers
Our yacht is priced as a whole: from €580 for up to 12 guests and 6 hours, with captain and crew, fuel, mooring, snorkelling masks, a freshwater shower and the hotel transfer from central Alanya. Nothing is paid online; the yacht is paid for in euros on the day.
Food, drinks, water sports, professional photos, tips and personal expenses sit outside that figure. The price guide sets this out in full, so you can compare like with like.
Choosing a yacht in Belek
Belek lies further west along the coast, and many visitors stay in its resort hotels. If that is where you are, a yacht that starts nearby saves you the journey and keeps the day simple.
We do not describe another coast's route or prices here. Our sister site covers private yachts in Belek, and that is the place to read what a day there includes.
That is a fair choice, and a practical one. An occasion should feel easy, and for guests based in Belek the easiest plan may simply be the one closest to their hotel.
Questions that point one way or the other
If you are still unsure, these usually help.
- Is your hotel in central Alanya, or in Belek?
- Are the castle and the cave coastline part of the picture you have in mind?
- How much travel does your group want on the day of the occasion?
- Are older guests or small children coming, for whom a shorter transfer matters?
Our recommendation
Choose the Alanya yacht if you are staying in central Alanya or want the castle and the caves as your backdrop; choose a yacht in Belek if you are based there and would rather keep the journey short. For Alanya, check dates on the yacht page.

More questions
Can guests staying in Belek book the Alanya yacht?
The included transfer covers central Alanya districts. If you are staying in Belek, ask us before you book how you could reach the harbour area in Alanya.
Is the Alanya coastline very different from the coast near Belek?
What defines the Alanya route is the castle above the sea, the Red Tower and the caves in the rock. For what you would see from Belek, read the details on our sister site.
Does the occasion change which coast I should pick?
Sometimes. A proposal or an anniversary often benefits from the castle backdrop, while a large family day may favour the shorter journey from your own hotel.
