E242 Sailing Turkey, Then Egypt – Diving, Pyramids & the Nile
Our journey continues along the Turkish coast as we sail from Bodrum to Didim and then north to Yenifoça, exploring some of the beautiful coastline and historic towns along the way.
In Bodrum, we drop the anchor right in front of the spectacular Bodrum Castle, giving us an incredible view of this historic fortress from the water. We then continue north to Didim, a popular Turkish tourist destination, before making our way to Yenifoça.
With No Regrets safely left in Izmir, we take a break from sailing and fly to Istanbul for a few days of exploring. We visit the magnificent Blue Mosque and Dolmabahçe Palace, before taking a ferry along the Bosphorus and seeing this incredible city from the water.
But the adventure doesn't stop there.
We fly back to Egypt for a Red Sea liveaboard diving adventure. We had booked this trip before setting off on our journey, and it was one of the reasons we didn't stop along the Egyptian coast when we sailed through earlier. Stopping with No Regrets along the Egyptian coast would have been difficult and expensive, so returning by air made much more sense.
While we're in Egypt, we also take a week-long cruise down the Nile, travelling from Luxor to Aswan and exploring some of Egypt's incredible ancient history, including the Valley of the Kings and the magnificent temples along the river.
From sailing the Turkish coast and anchoring beneath a medieval castle, to exploring Istanbul, diving the Red Sea and cruising the ancient Nile — this episode takes us well beyond the usual sailing adventure.

WHO ARE WE?
Hey there! We’re Chris and Jo, an ordinary Aussie couple living our extraordinary dream aboard our Seawind 1260 since January 2019 and now we continue from 2024 aboard our new 1370!
Our adventure began with an unforgettable journey down the east coast of Australia, followed by a sail to the stunning New Caledonia. In 2020, we continued our exploration further north, and by 2021 and 2022, we circumnavigated Australia, discovering breathtaking locations along the way.
Having previously owned fishing and water-skiing boats, our passion for sailing deepened after crewing in South Australia, leading us to make the leap into full-time living at sea.
We hope to inspire you, just as we were inspired by other YouTube channels, to chase your dreams and explore the wonders of this beautiful world. Join us on our journey, and don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more sailing adventures!
