Sunset on the Mediterranean. A glass of wine in your hand and your sweetheart by your side. It sounds like the start of a romantic movie. Pan out and it’s obviously the start of a romantic comedy as the rest of the cast comes into view. There’s the Italian group in teeny bathing suits, the Australians checking out girls on the other boat, and the Turkish captain trying to earn his keep.
Sure the cruise was crazy and comedic, but it was also peaceful, relaxing and with sunsets like these who could have a bad time? I can count on one hand the number of ocean cruises I’ve been on in my lifetime. Chalk that up to coming from a landlocked part of the country, so for me, spending a few hours let alone days on a boat is a blissful reminder of how truly magical the ocean can be. I’ve seen many sunsets from around the world, but this one, with sailboats bobbing on the horizon and the spectacular display of orange and red has to count in my top five.
IF YOU GO: Turkish Blue Coast cruises leave from Fethiye or Olympos and go in both directions. It’s worthwhile to ask around for company recommendations to make sure you’re getting the cruise experience that best suits your type of travel.
