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.

Avsa Island is with its' clean air with much oxygen, brilliant water, granite sand, delicious fish, wine, music and joyful nights, the most beautiful among the islands of the Marmara Sea.

MARINA

Approach and Navigation
The approach from N is straightforward, but in the approach from S be sure to give the headland of Büyükliman Burnu a clearance of at least half a mile as there are dangerous shallows off it. Türkeli is a new harbour, constructed on the E side of the island of Avşa, primarily as an alternative berth for the ferry from Erdek on the rare occasions when there are strong W/SW winds in the Sea of Marmara and the ferry’s usual jetty at Turkeli on the W side of the island becomes untenable.

The harbour is entered from SSE, parallel with the beach, and there are depths of 6 m in the entrance. The harbour is very large and a visiting yacht has several berthing options (assuming the ferry is not due in the case of strong W/SW winds). The small basin at the W side of the harbour is shallow and mostly filled with local boats. The larger basin on the E side is used by the ferry.

The central length of quay between the two basins and directly opposite the entrance has depths of 4 - 5 m off the quay but barely 2 m alongside, so a yacht should do an anchor moor if mooring here. The holding is good in sand. In the eastern basin, the W and much of the N side is taken up by apparently dumped fishing boats and two large ferries. The West wall has 4 water and electric stands,the depths immediately in front of which range from 2.3 meters in the SW to 2.5 meters in the NW and quickly get deeper.

Going stern to should be fine.When the ferry comes in it turns to starboard and spins in its own length with bow thrusters and so should not present a problem to yachts stern to the west wall.

However, the E side of the basin, where the ferry berths, has depths of 5 m and a yacht can lay alongside here in good shelter. Although the quay here is quite high and lined with heavy black tyres, a yacht alongside is blown off by the prevailing winds.

Note: the approach from N is straightforward, but in the approach from S be sure to give the headland of Buyukliman Burnu a clearance of at least half a mile as there are dangerous shallows off it.
