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.

PHOTOGRAPHS ALBUM

Karaköy, the only village on the Datça peninsula facing the Gökova gulf. Karaköy is used as a pier for ferries in Körmen that ply the marine route from Bodrum. The quaintness of this village, combined with its quiet atmosphere, make Karaköy the ideal relaxing getaway.

There are no lights at the head of of the breakwaters. In strong winds, care is needed at the entrance to the larger basin-the considerable sea in these winds causes a confused swell at the entrance, and waves can break over the breakwater of the smaller inlet. The depths in the smaller inlet are 4 - 6 meters. The width between main breakwater and mole is 80 meters. Local fishing boats berth in the smaller inlet. The bottom is muddy. Good holding.

MARINA

Shelter
Without a doubt, the most prominent harbor on Datça Peninsula is Körmen Harbor. Körmen Harbor provides decent year-round shelter against the wind. For this reason, it shelters boats from surrounding bays, too. It is an ideal place to windsurf, as well.

Mooring
Vessels arriving at Körmen Harbor from Bodrum or Gökova moor up in one of two docks for fishing boats and yachts. In mooring, go stern-to or bow-to. The bottom is sand and weed and mostly good holding. Boats berth on the northern part of the large basin. Yachts can anchor and go stern-or bow-to the quay. An attendant will come and assist you to tie up.
