Overview
This full-day trip leaves from Erikli beach, near Keşan, and heads east along the Thracian shore of the Gulf of Saros. The boat passes Mecidiye, calls at the sandy coves of İtalyan Koyu and Uzunkum, cruises the rocky coast and caves around Toplar Point, then continues to İbrice harbour, known for its dive centres, and the pine-covered shore of Gökçetepe Nature Park. Swimming stops are made in clear, shallow coves and lunch is served on board. Both shared group boats and private boats for up to ten guests operate here, and at the end of the day the boat returns to Erikli along the same coast.
