Bodrum's waters, in practice
The Gulf of Gökova, a forty-mile Aegean fjord lined with pines, below the Knights’ castle. Wind-wise: a westerly meltemi that funnels down the gulf in the afternoon, with remarkably calm nights.
Departures, day-trip classics and season
Departures: the Bodrum marina, below the castle of St Peter. The local classics: the Gökova coves — Çökertme, Orak island, Sedir with its Cleopatra beach — and Kos across the water. High season: from May to October, the crewed traditional gulet remaining the local art de vivre.

Do I need a license to rent a boat in Bodrum?
In Turkey, bareboat rental in practice requires a recognised license; most of the "no-license" market is skippered, with the captain often included in the displayed price. Frequently the better deal: the captain knows the coves and handles anchoring. Check whether fuel and skipper are included before comparing.
