Sultry Sunset Sailing in Istanbul
Embark on a private sunset sailing adventure across the Bosphorus, combining serene views with intimate conversations.
- As you arrive at the dock, a beautifully maintained yacht awaits. The captain greets you and explains the safety protocols before you embark. The deck is adorned with comfortable seating and romantic decorations, creating a perfect setting for an evening under the sky.
- As the yacht sets sail, the sun begins its descent, painting the sky in hues of orange and pink. You and your partner sip on chilled champagne, enjoying the gentle breeze and the sound of water lapping against the hull. Istanbulโs skyline looks magnificent from this vantage point, providing a breathtaking backdrop.
- The yacht anchors in a secluded spot near the Asian side, where the lights of the city twinkle in the distance. Here, you enjoy a gourmet dinner under the stars. The menu features a selection of local and international dishes, tailored to your preferences. After dinner, you can lie back on the deck, stargazing and sharing stories, making the most of your private, peaceful retreat on the water.
Preparation steps:
- Book a private yacht through a reputable charter company in Istanbul. Ensure they cater to romantic experiences and can provide added touches such as floral arrangements or a specific music playlist.
- Plan a menu that caters to both your tastes. Consider including a mix of Turkish mezze, seafood, and a decadent dessert. Confirm with the service if they can accommodate any specific dietary requirements.
- Prepare a small bag with essentials for the evening: sun hats, sunscreen for the early part of the trip, light jackets for after sunset, and a high-quality camera or binoculars for enjoying the distant views and stars.
