Hot New Marinas
Spotlight: Old Territory, New Look
The three locations featured are ones you may or may not have considered visiting. Come to the eastern Mediterranean, and we'll visit some cities whose cultural significance goes far beyond the surface of the bay.
Cyprus
In Cyprus, Limassol Marina has hosted yachts for a year, but the amenities on land are just now ready to welcome visitors. A luxurious club, cultural center, and numerous shops line the waterfront of the harbor. Limegrove Spa and Fitness is where you can get some real exercise and some much-deserved relaxation.
Limassol gives you a taste of seaside community life by putting you in close proximity to the marina's well-appointed houses and luxury yachts. On Cyprus, you can go swimming in the open sea one day and skiing the next. Try some of the island's renowned dessert wine at Castle Kolossi. Visit a local eatery serving up fresh shellfish. Then, as the sun sets, bask on the platform of your private boat in the glow of Limassol's strikingly lit harbor and the reflective green waters.
Greece
Since Aristotle was born in Halkididi, it would be prudent to book one of the marina's 215 spaces in advance if you plan to explore the area. You could add a journey to Turkey to your schedule in addition to Greece.
Turkey
Cesme Marina in Izmir can accommodate even more (and larger!) yachts than Sani so you'll be in good company once you arrive. Cesme harbor's orange roof tiles provide a stunning juxtaposition to the harbor's deep blue seas. This harbor serves a specific purpose and symbolizes the bond between the old country of Turkey and its shiny ships.
Common Ground
Sani, like Cesme, blends the familiar with the unfamiliar and the old with the contemporary. Both Halkidiki and Izmir have been around for quite some time, and are now easy to get to due to their ports. Each metropolis boasts its own unique attractions, from hot spas to sandy beaches to historic temples and Byzantine buildings. Now that these new stops have been built, charter travelers can sail the Aegean in comfort and style while experiencing authentic Mediterranean life. After devastating flames in the early twentieth century, neighborhoods in both Thessaloniki, Greece, and Izmir, Turkey, were reconstructed. Because of this, the surviving cityscapes now feature a distinctive urban structure. Because so many various architectural eras and styles have to cohabit in such small, dated harbors, they are charmingly inconsistent.
Have fun getting lost in the tangles of Cypriot, Greek, and Turkish history. When you finally get back to the charter boat, you can relax in your private stateroom. Eastern Mediterranean destinations are tried and true, so there's no need to hurry. Take in the sight of the sun-bleached walls of the buildings and the shiny white of the ships as they silently welcome you to their realm.
