TYBA Charter Show Closes Göcek Chapter, Heads to Marmaris in 2026
The 6th TYBA Yacht Charter Show took place from May 9–13, 2025, at D-Marin Göcek Marina. It was the last edition to be held in Göcek.
Starting in 2026, the show will move to Marmaris for a four-year run, as part of a rotating strategy to showcase Turkey’s diverse cruising regions. After launching in Yalıkavak and continuing in Göcek, the event now sets its course for Marmaris.
Organized by the All Yacht Operators, Brokers and Agents Association of Türkiye (TYBA), the show brought together over 350 international brokers and featured 50 luxury yachts.
The five-day event included yacht viewings, guided tours, onboard brunches, receptions, and a chefs’ competition themed “Istanbul Street & Fast Food.” Press lunches engaged over 20 international journalists, and a rich seminar program covered topics like Turkish yacht-building history, marketing through storytelling, updated charter agreements, wine culture, and music licensing.
