A honeymoon boat trip in Side means hiring a private boat in Side for the two of you alone, so the whole deck, the swim stops and the pace belong to you. Extras like champagne, catering, flowers or a photographer are arranged on request and quoted per event. Send us your date and we'll price it.
Why a private boat is the right call for a honeymoon
Shared group trips are good fun, but a honeymoon is not a group occasion. On a scheduled boat you share the sun deck, the music and the swim stops with forty strangers. On a private hire, none of that happens. The boat is booked for your group only, the captain runs the day around you, and you decide when to swim, when to eat and when to simply sit with a drink and watch the coast go by.
That privacy is the whole point. You can play your own playlist, ask the crew to hang back while you swim off the back of the boat, and take your time over lunch without a schedule pushing you along. Our captains have run this stretch of coast for years, so tell them the mood you're after — quiet and slow, or a bit of everything — and they'll shape the route to match.
What "private" actually means when you book
A private boat is hired for your group and priced per boat, not per seat. You pay one price for the whole vessel and split it across everyone aboard. For two people on honeymoon that one price naturally looks dear compared with a per-person group ticket — you're paying for an entire boat rather than two seats. If you bring family or friends along to celebrate with you, the same boat price divided among more people works out sensibly.
Either way, you get the exclusivity: no other guests, no fixed timetable, and a crew looking after your group and no one else. Live pricing and the enquiry form sit on each private tour page, so you can send your details and get a real quote back rather than a guess.
The boats we run for honeymoons and celebrations
We arrange private boats and yachts across Side, Manavgat and Antalya, so there's a vessel to suit the day you have in mind. A couple wanting something intimate and exclusive will want a different boat from a couple bringing twenty guests for a party at sea.
- Private VIP boat from Side — our exclusive Mediterranean experience, built around couples and celebrations. A strong first choice for a honeymoon.
- Luxury motor yacht, full day — a premium private yacht for a full day on the water when you want the polished, upmarket version.
- Private yacht from Kumköy — a private yacht that also comfortably holds a group if you're celebrating with company.
- Private gulet charter — a classic wooden gulet with a slower, traditional feel, good for larger groups.
Not sure which fits? Send us your date and group size and we'll point you to the right boat.

| Luxury motor yacht, full day | A premium full day out | Upmarket, polished | Couples up to a group | Per boat, on request |

Champagne, catering and the romantic extras
The extras are where a honeymoon boat trip becomes an occasion. Because the boat is booked privately, we arrange the finishing touches on request and quote them per event alongside the boat. Depending on what you'd like, that can include:
- Champagne or a drinks package
- Catering, from a light lunch to something more special
- A cake for the occasion
- Flowers and deck decoration
- Music
- A photographer to capture the day
We don't sell a fixed honeymoon package with a set menu and a set figure, because every couple wants something slightly different. Tell us what matters most to you — maybe it's just champagne and privacy, maybe it's the full setup with flowers and a photographer — and we'll build a quote around it. The more you tell us up front, the closer the quote will be to what you actually want on the day.
The route: calm, romantic and unhurried
The coast around Side, Manavgat and Antalya gives you clear water, quiet coves for swimming and long open stretches to sit back and take in. On a private honeymoon trip we keep the route calm and romantic rather than packed with stops. That usually means anchoring somewhere sheltered for a swim, drifting through the prettiest water, and pacing the day so nothing feels rushed.
Because it's your boat, the exact plan is flexible. If you'd rather anchor early and stay put with a drink, that's fine. If you want to see more of the coast, the captain will cover more ground. For a sense of where different trips leave from, browse boats departing from Side — and tell us your hotel so we can suggest the most convenient departure point.
Hotel pickup and how the day is arranged
Hotel transfer is arranged as part of the booking. Guests are picked up from their hotel in the morning; the exact time is confirmed the day before and varies from hotel to hotel, depending on where you're staying and which boat you're on. You don't need to sort out your own way to the harbour — we handle it.
Once you've enquired, we confirm the boat, the extras you've asked for and the pickup arrangement, then send the final timing the evening before. On the day, you're collected, brought to the boat, and the rest of it is yours.
How to book your honeymoon boat trip
Booking and enquiring are done online on the private tour page. The simplest approach is to pick the boat that appeals — the private VIP boat from Side is our usual honeymoon recommendation — and send your date, group size and the extras you're interested in through the enquiry form. We'll come back with a per-boat quote and any extras priced per event.
If you're departing from further along the coast, you can also start from the Antalya departure hub. Send us the details and we'll match you to the right boat and the right harbour.
Frequently asked questions
How much is a private honeymoon boat trip in Side?
Private boats and yachts are priced per boat on request, not per seat, so there's no fixed figure to quote here. You pay one price for the whole boat. For two people it looks dear next to a group ticket, but it buys you the entire vessel and complete privacy. Send your date and group size through the tour page for a live quote.
Can we have champagne and other extras on board?
Yes. Extras such as champagne, catering, a cake, flowers, decoration, music or a photographer are arranged on request and quoted per event alongside the boat hire. Tell us what you'd like when you enquire and we'll build it into your quote.
Is it just the two of us, or do we share the boat?
It's a private hire, so the boat is booked for your group only — no other guests. If it's just the two of you, you have the whole boat to yourselves. If you want to bring family or friends to celebrate, the same boat holds them and the one price simply splits further.
Which boat is best for a honeymoon?
For two people, the private VIP boat from Side is our usual recommendation, with the luxury motor yacht a strong choice for a premium full day. If you're celebrating with a group, the private yacht from Kumköy or the gulet charter give you more room. Tell us your group size and we'll advise.
How does hotel pickup work?
Hotel transfer is arranged for you. Guests are picked up from their hotel in the morning; the exact time is confirmed the day before and varies from hotel to hotel. You'll have your final pickup time the evening before your trip.
