BAKIRKÖY FISHING HARBOUR

Bakırköy - İstanbul - Turkey

GPS : 40°58'24.6"N 28°52'41.0"E / 40.973511, 28.878063



PHOTOGRAPHS ALBUM

Bakırköy is a neighborhood, municipality (belediye) and district on the European side of İstanbul, Turkey. Bakırköy lies between the D.100 highway (locally known as E-5) and the coast of the Sea of Marmara.

The center of Bakırköy is an important commercial district. There is a huge shopping district (including a number of huge shiny shopping centres as Carousel), a range of cinemas, bars and cafés. Now the council is trying to smarten up the shopping district by pedestrianising more of it and putting in fountains etc.

Bakırköy is easy to reach by public transport; there are dolmuş to Beyoğlu throughout the night; there are buses to Mecidiyeköy (although using the D.100 highway by bus is unpleasant indeed: there is a ferry boat service that takes passengers to Kadıköy and Bostancı on the Asian side of the city and also to the Adalar (Islands); and the light-railway from the airport to Aksaray runs through here. Moreover, the quarter has a station of the suburban railway line.

AROUND
Atakoy Marina, A port of Entry to Turkey, located on the European Coast of Istanbul at the southern end of the Bosphorus Straits. The Marina situated in its own extensive ground is a peaceful place away from the noise and bustle of Istanbul but yet offers easy access by many forms of transport. As a result it is an excellent place to moor a vessel whether arriving from the Aegean Sea, through the Dardanelles, or joining the craft by air.

The modern International Airport, with direct flights to most countries is only 10 minutes away by taxi. The E5 Highway and the TEM ( Trans European Motorway) are a few minutes drive away and have feeder roads to all areas of Turkey and other countries. The Sea Bus terminal, adjacent to the Marina, allows speedy transport by sea to the Asian and European sides of Istanbul and to various parts of the Sea of Marmara.

Many taxis and a local bus service provide transport for sight-seeing in the historical peninsula, bounded by the Golden Horn and Sea of Marmara, and the heart of the Ottoman commerce of Istanbul. Other buses go to Taksim Square and Beyoğlu, a street of international shops. The Metro from Taksim Square provides a very speedy link to the fashionable shopping area of Levent.

The Princes' Islands, 10 nm offshore, can be visited by ferry or by private yacht. Here there is a step back in history as cars are not allowed and transport is by horse drawn carriage. There are many secure harbours and anchorages for a yacht around the islands where fresh fish is a speciality of most of the restaurants.

The Bosphorus Straits give access to the Black Sea and the six countries of Bulgaria, Romania, Ukraine, Russia, Georgia and Turkey which surround this large expanse of water.

Turkish Offshore Racing Club is the leading Yacht Club in Turkey and thru Eastern Aegean Sea and has been successfully organizing since its establishment in 1971, professionally organized yacht races to an ever increasing and highly motivated community.

Turkish Offshore Racing Club
The spectrum of participants ranges from senior executives of major corporations and businessmen and women to university students all united by the passion for excitement on the water.

MARINA

Yeşilköy Harbour lies on the Sea of Marmara. The harbour provides good shelter but swell from large commercial vessels can be a nuisance.

It is located along the Marmara Sea about 11 km west of Istanbul's historic city centre. Before the rapid increase of Istanbul's population in the 1970s, Yeşilköy was merely a village and a sea resort. Yeşilköy borders the neighborhoods of Yeşilyurt to the northeast, and Florya to the southwest.

Approach & Entrance
The lighthouse and breakwaters are easily seen in the approach.

West İstanbul Marina is set to become a living center in close touch with the sea in the western side of Istanbul owing to social facilities and water sports, in addition to being a new destination and mooring point for yachters. It is a marina with the most advanced technology featuring a smart card system and high level security systems. It is not only a marina but a style of living with its shopping mall, restaurants, sailing school, beach and sports facilities.

In addition to a mooring capacity of 600 yachts on the sea and 300 yachts on land, it introduces the rack system for the first time in Turkey. Owing to the rack system, it provides an alternative and innovative solution to limited and expensive boat-parks in Istanbul by hosting 360 yachts of up to 7 m on specials racks. We believe that this will allow sea lovers to realize their dreams of having a yacht, which they have until now delayed due to limited mooring facilities in İstanbul.

Having the biggest land parking area in Istanbul, West Istanbul Marina responds to maintenance and repair needs as well as yacht accommodation demand with its experienced technical staff.

HISTORICAL PLACES

Kanuni Sultan Süleyman Bridge
World-known famous Ottoman architect Mimar Sinan started the construction of the bridge with the command of Sultan Mehmet during the statutory Szigetvar expedition. The bridge was completed 1566-1567 during II. Selim and reserve currency 73,853 has been spent. Hundreds of sculptor and carpenter worked in the construction of the bridge and the waters of the lake are drawn with giant water pumps. The foundation of the bridge combined with lead-casting piles which driven up to 2-3 human length. This basic method was later applied to the New Mosque by the architect Davut Aga. Mimar Sinan Bridge is 635 mt. long, 7.17 meters wide and composed of the combination of 4 different bellows.

Sokullu Mehmet Pasha Mosque
Sokullu Mehmet Pasha Mosque (1567) is located in Büyükçekmece Dizdariye District on Enver Pasha Street. Due to its location it is known as Mosque of Bridgehead. The mosque is one of Mimar Sinan`s masterpiece. Sokullu Mehmet Pasha Mosque composes a miniature range complex with the bridge and Büyükçekmece Caravanserai. The most important feature is its minaret which there is only two exsamples in the world. The minaret is sculptured from a single piece of stone. The other example for such a minaret is in Egypt.

Fountain of Kanuni Sultan Süleyman
Fountain is the oldest standing structure in Büyükçekmece next to Sokullu Mehmet Pasha Mosque. The Fountain was built together with historical Sultan Süleyman Bridge and Caravanserai. The fountain was constructed in classical style and hewn stone bases in 3 wings. Each wing has a fountain and drinking trough in front.

Kervansaray (Kurşunlu Han)
Caravanserai was a large range (host) place on the extending roads from Thrace to the Büyükçekmece in 16th century during the Ottoman Empire. Mosque complex, Namazgah, three-arched fountain with four sections in the form of a bridge structure is located in the Caravanserai. Restorations made from time to time rendered it possible to reach these works to the present day. The construction of the Caravanserai is not the first structure built by Mimar Sinan commanded by Süleyman the Magnificent. The inscription gives the date of 974/1566. It is understood that an important range complex of buildings adjacent to a mosque had built by Mimar Sinan during the statutory Szigetvar expedition of Sultan Mehmet.

PHOTOGRAPHS ALBUM

Ereğli is near a small pointed headland on the north shore of the Marmara Sea. It is called Marmaraereğlisi (or Marmara Ereğli in colloquial usage) to distinguish it from the two other large towns in Turkey. The main livelihood source of the city are fishing, cultivation (watermelon, barley, sunflower, wheat), husbandry and some industry.

Ereğli is a town with little to offer, and especially quiet in winter. The coast on either side of Ereğli is lined with hotels and compounds of holiday properties. The holiday compounds are complicated mazes of little roads tightly packed with villas or buildings of holiday flats, leading down to the sea. Some of them have cafes and restaurants on the seafront, sometimes open to people from outside the compound.

HARBOUR
There is a small fishermen shelter. Ereğli has two natural harbours and three small ports.

Capacity : 65 Boats

Natural port is open to NE wind but closed other winds. Very good shelter to protect from strong SE and western winds.

OPEN AIR MUSEUM
There is an open-air display of marble columns and sarcophagi - as is usual in any ancient Roman site- dating back to Perinthos in a park located a few meters down the town square towards eastern waterfront. This is probably the historical sight in best condition.

PERINTHOS
The ostentatious days of Perinthos are long gone for more than two millenia, so many of the historical sights described here are slowly vanishing. In fact many can be distinguished from natural formations only by careful eyes and only people really interested in history may find them worth of a check.

HERACLEA
An ancient Greek colony of the island of Samos was founded here in 600 BC. The area was known in Ancient Greek as later called Heraclea, It is said to have been a Samian colony, founded about 599 BC. According to John Tzetzes, its original name was Mygdonia; later it was called Heraclea (Heraclea Thraciae, Heraclea Perinthus). It is famous chiefly for its stubborn and successful resistance to Philip II of Macedon in 340 BC; at that time it seems to have been more important than Byzantium itself. Christian virgin Saint Glyceria suffered her martyrdom at Heraclea (modern Marmara Ereğli) in the year 177.

Old town
Situated on the top of the hill rising on the tip of the peninsula, this is the oldest part of town. There are many houses around maintaining Greek architecture but most are very badly in need of a repair. One exception is Constantine’s Residence, a stone two-floor mansion known by its former owner’s name. It’s situated near the western coast, a block or so down the town square.

City walls
Most of the old town is surrounded by ancient city walls, though in most parts they resemble more of a somewhat high garden fence rather than grandiose city walls. You may occasionally spot a (largely ruined) tower here and there if you walk around them a bit.

Roman breakwater
Located on the western coast, you can more easily spot it from the top of the cliff as it appears as random rocks on two straight rows lying parallel to each other when you hit to the beach next to it. Nice to watch the cormorants playing with the waves though.

Amphitheatre
You will not find the usual marble seats as they are covered by grass and earth several feet thick. However the amphitheatral form of half-moon ascending from a stage is still clearly distinguishable, in fact it looks more majestic with the grass and all. To get there from the town centre, walk uphill through the old town, and as you come to the edge of the cliff overlooking the sea, turn left (towards east).

You'll walk on an unpaved path for about 15-20 minutes passing beside, below and over some remnants of city walls. The amphitheatre is located right below the lighthouse on the top of the hill: Take the lighthouse (which will appear after you walked for about 5-10 min) as a bearing if it'll make it easier for you. It offers a very beautiful view of the sea located below the cliff next to the amphitheatre.

Tumulii
These are conical not-so-high hills, rising suddenly out of ground and somewhat natural at first glance. They are actually man-made, remained from Thracians, the native folk of this region before the arrival of Greeks and Romans among others. They were erected to serve as mausoleum for Thracian kings and nobles (think of them as local variation of the pyramids, though these two are historically unrelated).

Although the Tumulii are scattered all around Thrace, the area about 5 km north of Marmara Ereğlisi has an exceptionally high number of tumulii, as Perinthos was an important centre of the region even before Romans. The Tumulii 5 km out of town may not worth the trouble to go there, so you may take a distant look at a quite a few of them in the same frame when returning from the amphitheatre, just before entering the old town and immediately after the path swings to right (towards north).

FISH RESTAURANTS
Fish Restaurants are very famous with their fishes, cooking and services. Fishes available due to seasons.

Tekirdağ, the ancient Bisanthi or Bysanthe is a city in Turkey. It is a part of the region historically known as Eastern Thrace. Tekirdağ is the capital of Tekirdağ Province, felt by the local people to be a quieter and more pleasant town than the industrial centre of Çorlu, which it administers.

Tekirdağ province is in Trakya (Thrace), the northwestern part of Turkey. The capital city is Tekirdağ. It is famous for its meatball called "Tekirdağ köfte" and the Turkish alcoholic drink called "Tekirdağ rakı".

Tekirdağ is situated on the northern coast of the Sea of Marmara, 135 km west of Istanbul. The picturesque bay of Tekirdağ is enclosed by the great promontory of the mountain which gives its name to the city, Tekir Dağı (ancient Combos), a spur about 2000 ft. that rises into the hilly plateau to the north. Between Tekirdağ and Şarköy is another mountain, Ganos Dağı.

MUSEUM
The Rakoczi Museum, an 18th-century Turkish house, where the Hungarian national hero, Francis II Rákóczi (1676–1735), Hungarian prince lived during his exile, from 1720 till his death in 1735. Today, the museum is a property of the Republic of Hungary and is widely visited, having become a place of national pilgrimage. The house was transformed in 1982 into a museum after it was donated to the Hungarian State. Since then, it became a place of national pilgrimage for Hungarians and Székely, people with Hungarian roots.

Tekirdağ, the ancient Bisanthi or Bysanthe is a city in Turkey. It is a part of the region historically known as Eastern Thrace. Tekirdağ is the capital of Tekirdağ Province, felt by the local people to be a quieter and more pleasant town than the industrial centre of Çorlu, which it administers. Tekirdağ province is in Trakya (Thrace), the northwestern part of Turkey. The capital city is Tekirdağ. It is famous for its meatball called "Tekirdağ köfte" and the Turkish alcoholic drink called "Tekirdağ rakı".

Tekirdağ is situated on the northern coast of the Sea of Marmara, 135 km west of Istanbul. The picturesque bay of Tekirdağ is enclosed by the great promontory of the mountain which gives its name to the city, Tekir Dağı (ancient Combos), a spur about 2000 ft. that rises into the hilly plateau to the north. Between Tekirdağ and Şarköy is another mountain, Ganos Dağı.

MARINA

Capacity : 200 Boats

Outer Breakwater : 650 m
Inner Breakwater : 220 m

Tekirdağ is a new, commercial harbour on the north shore of the Sea of Marmara in Turkey, 67 miles west of Istanbul and 72 miles NE of Çanakkale in the Dardanelles. There is currently no provision for yachts in the harbour and visitors here must find a place here alongside the quays wherever they can.

It may be necessary to lie alongside a fishing boat at busy times. Shelter is good from the prevailing N/NE winds, although the harbour is open SW.

Local Weather
Winds along the north coast of the Sea of Marmara are generally from N/NE, which can give some excellent sailing in flat water between the Dardanelles and Istanbul. Winds tend to be at their strongest in mid to late afternoon.

Approach and Navigation
The harbour shown in some older pilot books no longer exists. It has been filled in and is now a huge car park, funfair and extended row of cafes and restaurants. A completely new harbour has been created to the E of the old facility, which it is intended to establish as a full marina once tenders for its operation have been received.

Meanwhile, mooring in here is a "free for all" and visiting yachts must find a space (usually alongside a quay or another vessel) wherever they can. Entrance to the new harbour is from SW and depths in the entrance are 5.5 m. Depths at the quays range from 3.0 - 5.5 m. Holding is good in mud.

Be aware that it’s illegal to land on Turkish soil before your passport has an entrance stamp - which can be obtained from most visited marinas and major harbours, such as this one.

MUSEUM
The Rakoczi Museum, an 18th-century Turkish house, where the Hungarian national hero, Francis II Rákóczi (1676–1735), Hungarian prince lived during his exile, from 1720 till his death in 1735. Today, the museum is a property of the Republic of Hungary and is widely visited, having become a place of national pilgrimage. The house was transformed in 1982 into a museum after it was donated to the Hungarian State. Since then, it became a place of national pilgrimage for Hungarians and Székely, people with Hungarian roots.
