How fixed is the route?
Pre-set, but flexible by ±1 day or ±1 anchorage if the fleet votes. The lead boat's job is to get you to a marina each evening with a berth waiting — that requires planning.
Do I have to do everything with the group?
No. Daily activities are optional. Some couples skip the group dinners; some boats peel off for half a day. As long as you reach the evening marina, you're free.
What if I haven't sailed for a couple of years?
Flotilla is the format. You'll have a refresher with the lead skipper on day 1, and the daily briefings cover anchoring + docking specific to the day's marina.
Can kids come?
Absolutely — flotillas are the most kid-friendly format. Other families in the fleet, evening activities, fleet rhythm (early starts, early dinners) suits them.
When do flotillas run?
June to mid-September in the Mediterranean. Saturday-to-Saturday. Calendar published 6 months ahead — 8-12 per season.
The Turkish coast is a run of deep, sheltered gulfs with pine forest coming right down to the water and Lycian ruins on the headlands. You anchor off a beach for lunch, tie the stern line to a tree in a bay with no road access, and eat gözleme at a jetty restaurant that only opens for boats. The water is warm from May onward and clear enough to see your anchor set at 8m. It's less busy than the neighbouring Greek islands, the harbours are cheaper, and the run of bays between Bodrum and Göcek gives you weeks of sailing without ever leaving flat water for long. Right for first charterers, families, and anyone who wants swimming-off-the-boat over passage-making.
Sailing in company — the guided group experience
A flotilla is a small group of yachts sailing a set route together, led by a crew on a lead boat. You sail your own yacht, but never alone — a daily briefing, a hand into harbour and someone to call if anything's unclear.
It's the reassuring step up from a skippered week for newer skippers, and a sociable one: fixed departure dates, shared anchorages and a route the lead crew knows cold.
