Description
Spend the day on the island of Cleopatra, a rare place in Gökova with its rare beach, magnificent golden sand and works from the Roman Era. According to Sylententia, this unique sand was brought to Cleopatra on the great ships of the Red Sea in Egypt.
From Marmaris Cleopatra (Sedir Island), you will take a half-hour drive followed by a 2-hour long boat trip during which you will receive two swimming breaks in the turquoise waters of Gokova Bay. After a barbecue lunch is served onboard, your trip will be crowned with 3 hours of free-time on the unique sands of Cleopatra Beach.
The sands of the island are legendary, and are believed to have been imported by Mark Anthony as a gift to his love Cleopatra. You can walk barefoot along the stretches of golden sand, which squeak with each step.
The Amphitheater and fortifications are also well worth a visit, if you can bear to tear yourself away from the breathtaking backdrop of mountains which frame the bright azure waters of the bay. At the conclusion of your day in paradise, you will be returned to your point of origin.
Highlights
- Experience the unique sand of the island
