A low, glassy morning greets the bus at Antalya; the road opens to a quiet bay where pebbles click beneath your sandals and the yacht waits. The boat eases out along a limestone coastline where the Lycian Way cuts high above the water, and the sea—too blue to be casual—pulls you toward Suluada.

A low, glassy morning greets the bus at Antalya; the road opens to a quiet bay where pebbles click beneath your sandals and the yacht waits. The boat eases out along a limestone coastline where the Lycian Way cuts high above the water, and the sea—too blue to be casual—pulls you toward Suluada.
Suluada (literally “water island”) is volcanic in origin: raw basalt and tumbled rock shaped by waves into narrow coves, grottos and small salt lakes. Humans never settled here; it’s been a waypoint for sailors and a resting place for turtles rather than a village. The island’s mineral spring and the so-called ‘Cave of Love’ — a cold undercurrent that can surprise swimmers — are local curiosities rooted in simple maritime life rather than myth.
Expect a day built around swimming and shoreline cruising: long views of the Lycian cliffs, short landings on white sand, and time to snorkel in clear bays named Paradise and Maldivian for their color. The crew usually serves lunch aboard and offers tea as the yacht drifts in calm water.
Practicalities matter: boats depart early; bring a reef-friendly sunscreen, a water shoe for rocky beaches, and a wind layer for the return trip. If you’re prone to seasickness, take something beforehand—the crossings are short but open. Respect marine life: don’t chase turtles and follow the crew’s guidance around caves and currents. This is a simple, accessible sea day that rewards good timing and basic preparation with striking geology and surprisingly private beaches.
The full excursion runs about 6 hours and usually includes transport to Adrasan, a yacht cruise, time ashore at Suluada, lunch and tea—confirm exact inclusions with the operator.
Yes—bays have clear, shallow areas suitable for beginners, but enter slowly, use flotation if needed, and heed crew guidance about currents and rocks.
Loggerhead sea turtles frequent this coastline; sightings are possible but not guaranteed—keep a respectful distance and avoid chasing wildlife.
The cave contains a cold undercurrent and uneven footing; only competent swimmers should enter and always follow the crew’s safety instructions.
