History of blue voyage

Abstract

This study aims to examine the history of the first exploratory blue voyages initiated by the Fisherman of Halicarnassus, which have important traces in terms of Türkiye's tourism history. In this study, in which qualitative method was adopted, data were obtained by analysing the relevant literature. As a result of this conceptual study, it was determined that the first blue voyages initiated by the Fisherman of Halicarnassus on 22 August 1946 with nine people were educational and cultural trips, women also participated in them from 1957 onwards, blue voyages became continuous, and blue voyagers left works of art such as writings, letters, paintings, poems and monuments during the tour. It was observed that blue voyages as a cultural trip were replaced by yacht tourism after the death of the Fisherman of Halicarnassus and Sabahattin Eyüboğlu in 1973. Based on the findings of the study, suggestions for the tourism sector and academia were developed. It is thought that the findings of the study will enrich the narratives of tourist guides in guided blue voyages and that these narratives can be used in both long-term and daily boat trips.
