Further information concerning catamarans chartering in Greece and Turkey may be obtained by clicking
on the blue links immediately above. Thank You. You must be searching for catamarans chartering
in Turkey or Greece. Alternatively you may be searching for information concerning Paul of Tarsus. Or for
a lagoon. We have all three. That is, we have catamarans chartering in Greece and Turkey and we have
information concerning Paul gleaned from the King James version of the Holy Bible. We also have lagoons,
of course. One of our more famous lagoons is located south and east of Trogyllium. The latter is a safe
harbor also known as Port Saint Paul, reflecting a passage (Acts: 20-15) in the bible recording a visit by
the apostle while returning to Jerusalem from Macedonia in AD 58. In Paul's era the lagoon was a gulf, the
Gulf of Latmos, providing access to Priene and Miletus, both major cities at the time. The gulf has since
silted from the outflow of the River Meander leaving us with a lagoon. Trogyllium, however, remains a safe
harbor, one which provides small boat access to both of those ancient cities, Greek Priene and Carian
Miletus, the ruins of which are substantial and enlightening. So, were you searching for catamarans
chartering in Turkey, or for Paul of Tarsus, or for a lagoon, or for all three, well, charter a catamaran
and sail it to Trogyllium. Better yet, charter a Lagoon 410 and sail it to Alexandria Troas before running
south on Paul's Third Mission sailing track. Paul's excursion traced on the map at left actually began
almost five years earlier when he set forth on foot from Antioch (Acts 18-22), today Turkey's
|
Antakya. The first stop on his route was his
birthplace at Tarsus, capital of ancient Cilicia (Kilikya) and now a part of greater-Mersin, Turkey. And
from there Paul journeyed through Cilicia and Pamphylia (Perge on the map), and by way of Iconium (Konya)
through Phrygia and Galatia, preaching to disbelievers and confirming churches until arriving at Ephesus
in the Fall of AD 54. He remained at Ephesus doing the work of the Lord for three years before again
journeying (see Acts: 16-9 for earlier mission) to Macedonia. It is his return on this latter occasion
from Philippi which left a sailing track beginning in Turkey at Alexandria Troas. You might consider
sailing this track after first swim-stop hopping Turkey's Aegean coast from Anaea (Kusadasi) near
ancient Ephesus to Troas (Tuzla Burnu). While en route you might pause at modern Foca/ancient Phocaea to
enjoy its history and wonderful seafood. You might also pause at Dikili, the port for ancient Pergamum,
and travel by car to that incredible archaeological site. And upon reaching Alexandria Troas you might
pause for a few days as did Paul before running south on the prevailing wind, putting into Assos (Behram
Kale) where Paul's shipmates awaited his brief trek into the countryside. From Assos they sailed to
Mytilene (Lesbos), Sappho's island. A day later they were in Chios where you might explore its seaside
town of the same name climbing steep harbor slopes, searching for the perfect octopus in vinegar. One
more day and they were at Samos, an island which today still produces ceramics recommended by Pliny The
Elder two thousand years ago. Then Paul and his companions "tarried" at Trogyllium, presumably
bathing in its clear-blue sea. Miletus was next. With a catamaran and fair weather you can get pretty close.
After Miletus Paul went on to Cos (Kos), 90 years earlier a honeymoon destination for Cleopatra. And from
Cos you might sail to Knidos which was to become a major waypoint on Paul's next journey two years later.
And then to Rhodes with its wonderful medieval cities at Rhodes Town and Lindos before jumping off to
Patara, again in Turkey. And all the while pausing for a swim at each and every clear-water cove along the
way. There it is should you be dreaming of replicating Paul's voyage in both Greece and Turkey. Of
catamaran chartering in both Turkey and Greece. Aboard the same catamaran. It can be done! How about
chartering Turkey and Greece aboard a yacht with family accommodations! With accommodations for two
families! How about chartering such a yacht to cruise Turkey's ancient Aeolia, Ionia, Caria, and Lycia!
Following Saint Paul's route along those coasts and among neighboring Greek islands! While you holiday!
How about having a family holiday doing this. How about having a family holiday aboard a catamaran
proceeding leisurely from enchanting locale to historical or biblical locale? You can do all of these
things! Starting in Kusadasi. Are you searching for Kusadasi in Turkey? Well, Kusadasi is situated 20
nautical miles NE of Samos and proximate to the international airport at Izmir. There or elsewhere we can
put you aboard bare boat catamarans chartering Greece and Turkey for the holiday of a lifetime. We can
put you aboard chartered catamarans and point you toward Paul's route from Alexandria Troas, and show you
his track all the way south to the Roman capital of Lycia at Patara where he jumped off for the Middle
East. Fun Lagoon 410 catamarans available for charter in Greece or Turkey or both. Contact Blue
