CORAL – 35 m Luxury Motor Yacht Charter from Bodrum
Picture this: the engines purr to life in Bodrum harbour, the castle glows behind you, and within minutes CORAL is slicing across the Aegean at 23 knots towards a bay of impossible blue. That is the thrill of a week aboard CORAL – a 35-metre luxury motor yacht for private crewed charter from Bodrum, combining speed, space and genuine warmth.
Built in 2008 and refitted in 2024, CORAL welcomes up to 10 guests in 5 elegant cabins, with a stylish salon, an alfresco dining deck, a huge flybridge and a generous selection of water toys – including a Seabob and a 5.30 m tender with a 100 HP engine.

A Day on Board CORAL
Morning. Wake to absolute stillness in a pine-fringed cove. Breakfast is laid out on the aft deck – fresh simit, honey and kaymak, olives, village cheeses and eggs any way you like – before the first plunge into water so clear you can count the pebbles below.
Midday. CORAL lifts anchor and races along the coast to the next highlight. The Seabob pulls swimmers beneath the surface like dolphins, the paddleboards come out, and the tender whisks the adventurous to a hidden beach. Lunch arrives in the shade: grilled fish, mezes and crisp Aegean salads.
Evening. Sunset cocktails on the flybridge, then a choice: a candlelit dinner on deck under the stars, or the tender into Bodrum, Yalıkavak or Türkbükü for a night of fine dining and music.
“The sea here has a hundred shades of blue. On CORAL you get to see them all – and still be back on board for sunset.”
Cabins and Accommodation on CORAL
CORAL’s five guest cabins are finished in warm, polished wood with soft fabrics and thoughtful lighting. Each has its own bathroom, air conditioning and plenty of storage – a calm, private retreat after a day in the sun. The layout suits families, groups of friends and couples travelling together equally well.
Life on Board: Salon, Decks and Flybridge
Inside, the wide main salon with panoramic windows is perfect for relaxed evenings and family games. Outside, the aft deck dining table seats everyone for long lunches; the foredeck lounge is the place for a quiet sunset drink; and the expansive flybridge – with sun pads, shaded seating and a bar area – is where the days are spent. A professional Turkish crew takes care of every detail, from navigation to the last ice cube.
The Cruising Experience: Speed and Comfort
With a cruising speed of 23 knots and a top speed of 28 knots, CORAL is one of the fastest yachts in her class on the Turkish coast. Distances that take a gulet half a day pass in under an hour – so you can enjoy Gökova, the Bodrum peninsula and the Greek islands all in a single week, while her stable hull keeps the ride smooth and quiet.
