Kemer Bays Party Boat Experience from Antalya with Lunch

Kemer’s party boat pairs a day on the water with a proper onboard party: you sail between three bays, stop for swims and snorkeling, eat lunch, then join the music and foam party. The coast is the main attraction, but the boat itself is part of the show.

I like the mix of clear-water stops and onboard entertainment, so you can swim or sunbathe when you want a break from the music. I also like that lunch is included and that pickup is available from several towns, though it costs extra.

The main consideration is the party atmosphere: this is a large boat, with capacity for 200, not a quiet coastal cruise. Drinks are extra, and pickup arrangements deserve careful confirmation if you choose a transfer package.

• Three bays in one half-day: The route takes you to Phaselis Bay, Paradise Bay, and Lovers Bay, with time for swimming and relaxation.
• A real party element: DJs and an onboard foam party make this as much a social outing as a boat trip.
• Lunch is included: Expect grilled chicken, salad, and rice or pasta, subject to seasonal availability.
• Choose your own transport plan: Meet at Kemer Marina, or pay more for pickup from Kemer, Beldibi, Göynük, Antalya, Belek, Lara, or Kundu.
• Bring your own swim kit: Pack swimwear, a towel, sunscreen, and snorkeling equipment. Drinks are sold separately and are available for cash.
• Plan for a big boat: Capacity is 200, so expect a shared, lively setting rather than a small-group excursion.

A 10:00 Start at Kemer Marina

The boat leaves Kemer Marina at 10:00 and returns at about 16:00, making this a six-hour outing rather than a full-day commitment. If you book the no-transfer option, look for the Tur Turizm sign at the marina and arrive 15 minutes early.

The meeting address is Merkez, Yalı Cd. 9/A, 07990 Kemer, Antalya. That little buffer matters: the boat has a set departure time, and the trip’s stops and return are tied to the day’s schedule.

If you choose a pickup package, make sure you understand the pickup location and time before setting out. One account describes a serious mix-up after a rescheduled booking, with a last-minute message saying the tour was full. That appears to be an isolated report, but I would keep your confirmation details handy and contact the operator in advance if anything changes.

The listed package prices start at US$33.70 for the marina meeting point, US$39.35 with pickup from Kemer, Beldibi, or Göynük, and US$44.95 with pickup from Antalya, Belek, Lara, or Kundu. The advertised starting price is also shown as $37.09, so check the price for your chosen date and package before booking.

Phaselis Bay: Swim Time, Not Ancient Ruins

The first stop is Phaselis Bay, where the draw is the water and the coastal scenery. You can swim, sunbathe, or use the stop to cool off after boarding. The bay is associated with the ancient city of Phaselis, but this boat trip stops at the bay, not at Phaselis Ancient City.

That distinction is useful if you are choosing between a beach day and a history visit. You may see the coastline around the ancient site, but the schedule does not include time ashore to explore the ruins.

The water is described as clear, and snorkeling is part of the experience. Guided snorkeling sessions are promoted, but the activity is also described as self-guided, and no guide is named. If having a guide in the water is important to you, check that detail before you book; otherwise, bring your own mask and snorkel and be ready to make the most of your swim time independently.

Lunch, DJs, and the Foam Party

Lunch is served onboard. The sample menu is grilled chicken with salad and either rice or pasta, though the meal can change with the season and ingredient availability. It is a practical, filling meal that saves you from having to arrange lunch during a short day out.

The party side of the trip is a central feature, not a small extra. DJs play onboard, and the foam party adds a playful, splashy change of pace after the quieter bay stop. If you enjoy music and dancing, this gives the cruise a social energy that a standard sightseeing boat may lack.

Music tastes are personal, and the playlist may not always match what you would choose yourself. Turkish music may feature more than international pop, so do not book on the assumption that the soundtrack will be tailored to an international audience.

The bar is onboard, but drinks are not included in the listed package and are available to buy with cash. Bring cash if you expect to order anything, and do not count on drinks being included in the ticket price. The boat also has a sun-protected area and restrooms, useful comforts during six hours at sea.

Paradise Bay and Lovers Bay: More Time by the Water

After lunch and the onboard entertainment, the cruise continues to Paradise Bay and Lovers Bay. These stops give you another chance to swim, snorkel, or simply sit in the sun and take in the coast. The exact timing can shift with weather and traffic conditions, so think of the listed schedule as a guide rather than a minute-by-minute promise.

The appeal of visiting several bays is variety without needing to arrange separate transport or find your own access points. You can spend the day moving between coastal settings while the boat takes care of the route. On the other hand, each stop is part of a shared group schedule, so you will not have unlimited time at any one bay.

Bring snorkeling equipment and water shoes if you have them. The tour information recommends both, but does not say that either is supplied. A towel, change of clothes, sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, and a water bottle are also sensible items to pack.

How the Boat’s Size Shapes the Day

The boat can carry up to 200 people. That capacity helps explain the party format: expect a shared excursion with room for music, a bar, and a crowd, not a small boat with a quiet, private feel.

For some people, that is exactly the point. The social setting can make the trip fun for couples, groups of friends, and anyone who likes a lively day out. If you want a peaceful cruise with few people and long, quiet stops, this probably is not the right fit.

There is a sun-protected area, but much of the appeal is being outside and near the water. Take sun protection seriously, and use the shaded area when you need a break. If you are prone to motion sickness, take travel sickness tablets one hour before the activity, as advised for this tour.

What the Price Covers, and What It Does Not

The entry-level price is modest for a six-hour cruise that includes lunch, DJ performances, and a foam party. You are also getting transport between several bays and access to onboard facilities, so the fare can make sense if you want an easy, all-in-one day rather than arranging a boat and meal separately.

The lowest price is for the join-in experience without transfer. Pickup packages cost more, but can save the effort of getting to Kemer Marina from your accommodation. The listed pickup areas are specific, so check that your hotel or meeting point is within the option you select.

Keep room in your budget for drinks, tips, and personal expenses, none of which are included. Drinks are available for purchase onboard with cash. The ticket includes lunch, but the menu may vary, so this is not the trip to choose if you need a guaranteed specific meal.

Who Will Enjoy This Kemer Cruise Most

This outing suits you if you want a social day on the water with more than one swimming stop, and you enjoy music, dancing, and a party atmosphere. It also works well if you want lunch handled and prefer a straightforward six-hour outing to a full day of separate plans.

Families can bring children, but keep the boat’s size and party format in mind. Children aged 0 to 3 are free, but infants and children must still be included in the passenger headcount. Children aged 9 and older pay the adult rate; the price for ages 4 to 8 is not specified here, so check before booking.

The activity is stroller-friendly but not wheelchair-accessible. Pets are not allowed. The legal drinking age in Turkey is 18, and you should bring valid identification if you plan to drink.

This is not an excursion to choose for archaeological access to Phaselis, quiet small-group service, or an included drinks package. Its value is in combining bays, swimming, lunch, and entertainment in one outing.

Practical Details Before You Book

The activity takes place from Kemer Marina in Antalya Province. You can present your mobile voucher, and the voucher is valid only on the date and time shown. The operator is Tur Turizm.

Weather or other unexpected events can affect the trip. The operator may cancel in extreme weather, in which case you can reschedule or request a full refund. For cancellations made by you, a full refund is available if you cancel at least 24 hours before the activity date, based on local time. Changes are generally allowed until 24 hours before the start, with some booking types excluded.

The schedule can change with weather and traffic conditions. Pack for sun and swimming, carry cash for drinks, and confirm transfer details if you are not meeting the boat yourself.

Should You Book It?

Book this trip if you want a lively boat day with several bays, swimming, lunch, DJs, and a foam party, and you are comfortable sharing the boat with a large group. The no-transfer option is the best value if getting to Kemer Marina is easy for you; pickup costs more but may simplify the day.

Skip it if you want a quiet cruise, a visit to the ancient ruins at Phaselis, or drinks included in the price. For the best chance of a smooth start, arrive early at the marina or confirm your pickup details directly, then bring cash, swim gear, and a healthy appetite for a busy day on the water.
