Cruise north along the peaceful coastline and drop anchor off the small bay of Aya Yorgi, a popular destination on the peninsula.
Still named in Greek, Aya Yorgi has become a favourite spot for Cesme nightlife as well as the host for the hottest beach clubs providing live entertainment.

Depart for Ilica beach, a two kilometre stretch of white sand and blue water, whose name makes reference to its famed  thermal springs , some of which are in the sea.
As the thermal waters come out of the seabed and mix with the sea water adding minerals very close to the Ilica beach, swimming here is ideal for the skin.
The nearby mud baths are also a plus, as well as the possibility for windsurfing due to the perfect wind conditions.

Leave Turkey and cruise towards Chios, a beautiful Greek island rich in history.
The island is renowned for the  Masticahoria, or the mastic villages which for hundreds of years have cultivated mastica, the sap of the mastic trees.
A wondrous substance that cures illnesses and has been used for a variety of purposes since ancient times. Chios Mastic Museum offers an excellent overview of the mastic cultivation and production process, plus a grove of mastic trees.
Very beautiful are the small medieval villages, such as Pyrgi and Olympi, with the geometrical patterns on the external walls.

On the southwestern coast of Chios lies the beach of Emporios Mavros Gialos. Its name means black beach due to the black pebbles and sand from the volcano that is now extinct.
The area is renowned for the natural landscape and relaxing surroundings: blue crystalline waters surrounded by rocky hills with low vegetation and greenery.
The island also offers many chances for hiking with trails leading to secluded beaches, medieval villages and old monasteries.

Cruise back towards the western coast of Turkey and stop at Alacati, a traditional Turkish town nearby Izmir.

Alacati is best known for its stone houses, colorful balconies, cobblestone streets, outdoor cafes, vineyards and windmills.

The bay is famous for its windsurfing beaches with continuous and steady wind throughout the year.

Return to Çesme marina for disembarkation.
