73 offers, half of them yachts: read the median carefully

Reading of 20 August 2026 for a 19 September outing: 73 offers, median €1,720 per day, first offer at €93, the dearest at €14,950. The breakdown: sailboat €166 median (6 offers, €93 to €11,000), RIB €314 (6 offers, €174 to €441), motorboat €418 (13 offers, from €104), yacht €4,175 (36 offers, €906 to €14,950). License-free appears once (€92, read on 13 August) and the catamaran once (€480, read on 23 July). Thirty-six yachts out of 73 offers: half of what rents here thirty days out is a large crewed unit, and that — not the price of small boats — is what puts the median at €1,720. The €166 median sailboat, with an €11,000 unit inside the same batch of six, is the most dispersed sample of the ten bases read this week: treat it as an order of magnitude, not a rate. See Kaş and Antalya by boat, "from" price or firm price and choosing the right platform.

One harbour under the cliff, then 35 kilometres to Kemer

Antalya Yat Limanı (Old Harbor), 1.7 km from the centre, is cut into the cliff below the Kaleiçi old town: the historic departure point. Then come Port Akdeniz at 11.1 km (a commercial port) and Setur Antalya Yat Limanı at 11.9 km, then Kemer Marina at 35.2 km (370 berths), and nothing more before Finike at 83.7 km and Alanya Marina at 116.4 km (437 berths) — OpenStreetMap records. Unlike the French Riviera, where the next harbour is five kilometres away, the Turkish Riviera stretches out beneath the Taurus wall: your choice of departure port really shapes the day. Turkish tourism is also among the most seasonally concentrated in Europe — a 2023 study by Orhan Yabanci in Current Issues in Tourism offers a multi-method analysis of it (see the study) — which puts the September fall below in context.

September in Antalya: −28%, the steepest fall of the week

The median goes from €2,489 for August outings to €1,801 for September ones, that is −28%: the steepest drop of the ten bases read this week, ahead of Empuriabrava (−19%) and far ahead of Monaco (−10%). Part of it is composition — the largest units go first — but the gap is too wide to rest on that alone, on a coast whose season runs from April to November. On qualifications, Turkey in practice requires a recognised license to go bareboat: most of the "no-license" market is skippered, with the captain often included in the displayed price — frequently the better deal here, since the captain knows the coves and handles anchoring. Check whether fuel and skipper are included before you compare two listings. See Bodrum, Göcek and Fethiye, prices by country and last-minute rentals.

Antalya's waters, in practice

The great Gulf of Antalya below the Taurus wall, between city cliffs and long beaches. Wind-wise: moderate gulf breezes below the Taurus, midsummer heat best managed on the water.

Departures, day-trip classics and season

Departures: the old Kaleiçi harbour, carved into the old-town cliff. The local classics: the Düden waterfalls plunging into the sea, the Konyaaltı and Lara beaches, and ancient Phaselis to the west. High season: from April to November, one of the longest seasons in the Mediterranean.
