Sailing in Turkey also allows visitors to experience the hospitality of the people in the coastal villages and towns. The tempered winds blowing from west and northwest make the long summers ideal for yachting, and seem to encourage an appreciation of nature. From some of the turquoise coast's unspoilt and sheltered bays you can see mountain peaks rising to almost 3000 meters above sea level.

There are many places to anchor in this deep heavily wooded bay. You will have to anchor fairly deeply in 6 - 10 m. The holding is good on mud and weed, but the water is murky so that you cannot see the bottom. Take a line to a tree to minimize swinging and interfering with other boats.

At the N end of the bay there is a river which leads to a fancy combining/hotel while in the E side there is another private summer resort known as the "Solar Research Station." Warning: Care must be taken entering the bay because of reefs and shallow areas. Study your chart carefully.

A fjord like inlet lying from the north of Dişlice Island, curves into Datça Peninsula for about 1,5 M. Pine trees cover the slopes right down to the shoreline, which features many coves. This is one of the prettiest bays in Hisarönü. Care is needed for the reefs and rocky patches in the vicinity.

While approaching from the east; there are reefs on our starboard, extending out for about 75 m. A 1,5 m deep rock lies 400 m east of Dişlice, it is marked by a conical buoy with a N cardinal top mark. Extreme caution is required. Another rock patch lies 10 m north of Dişlice Island. It is always the best to keep some distance off the points in Hisarönü.

Bencik provides all-round shelter. The anchorages on both sides provide sheltering from the prevailing wind. Boats anchor in 8 - 15 m and take a long line ashore to a tree. Pay attention for shallow patches off the finger points.
.
Datça-Marmaris highway passes nearby. Buses stop in summer in connection with Datça services. Taxi can be arranged from the summer holiday complex nearby.

The northern shores of the bay is marshy and there is a pier on the west. This part is the beach side of the summer residential site. A rough path 700 m goes to the site.

There is a grocery shop, providing some provisions.
