Each Star Clippers ship offers a traditional and elegant way to see the world. Feel the wind fill the sails and gently carry you from one gorgeous destination to the next.

(DAY 5): 12 August, 2026 - Dalyan River, Turkiye
At first glance, this is a picture one hardly expects to see in Türkiye - A lovely, unspoiled lake teeming with fish, a lush marshy delta, verdant farmlands, a lazy, reedfringed river meandering into the sea.
