Fresh from her highly anticipated launch earlier this year, Bilgin Yachts' 80-metre Al Reem has begun her maiden season in the Aegean, gliding into Bodrum's bays with the presence of a yacht born to be seen. With this occasion, Bilgin is also releasing the first exterior photographs of Al Reem under way in her element, captured in the turquoise waters of the Turkish Riviera.

The third and final yacht in Bilgin's acclaimed 80-metre trilogy, Al Reem has been designed to command attention, from her bold metallic grey-and-white profile to her sweeping teak foredeck and extended aft terraces. New photographs taken in Bodrum's crystal-clear anchorages capture her at her most striking - sleek, voluminous, and perfectly at home in the Mediterranean light.

"Seeing Al Reem in Bodrum is a proud moment for the shipyard," says Tugba Sengün Topgül, Marketing Director of Bilgin Yachts. "It's the perfect backdrop for her design, because we see Al Reem as a yacht made to connect with nature and the sea, yet deliver the highest standards of luxury."

Designed by Unique Yacht Design and featuring interiors by H2 Yacht Design, Al Reem boasts a voluminous 1,758 gross tonnage, an owner's suite with panoramic 300-degree views, and extended outdoor living spaces. Her light, neutral interiors and carefully curated materials, from warm matte timbers to intricate decorative glass, create an atmosphere of calm sophistication, perfectly suited for her owner's vision of tranquility and connection with nature.

Bodrum's crystal-clear anchorages and vibrant social scene make the ideal stage for Al Reem's first season, offering both secluded retreats and a touch of Mediterranean glamour. From sunrise swims to starlit gatherings on her expansive aft decks, Al Reem is set to leave an unforgettable impression throughout the summer.

While the 50-metre Camila prepares for a world debut at the Monaco Yacht Show this year, Al Reem will remain in the Mediterranean for the season, her owner eager to explore its storied coastlines and hidden anchorages. For Bilgin Yachts, it is a showcase not just of design and craftsmanship, but of the pleasure these yachts bring once they leave the shipyard behind and take to the water.
