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.

Ortunç Koyu is on the south west of Alibey Adası. ıt is a large bay, lying between Sivribe Point and Pınar Boğazı (Strait). This bay affords adequate shelter for the northerlies. Westerly blowing winds send in swell.

There is a nice hotel amongst the pine trees on the north - east side.

The bottom is weed. Boats drop anchor in 3 - 10 meters. Make sure that your anchor is dug in well. It is always the best to take a line ashore from the southern side if overnight staying is planned.

Ortunç Bay is a favorite spot for the tripper boats from Ayvalık. They constantly churn in and out of the bay. The nights are quite under attractive settings and Lesvos Island’s lights.

Ayvalık is a seaside town on the northwestern Aegean coast of Turkey. It is a district of Balıkesır Province. The town center of Ayvalık is surrounded by the archipelago of Ayvalık Islands, which face the nearby Greek island of Lesbos. Ayvalık is a city in Northern Aegean, Turkey.
