General Info
This port calls Kyrenia by Greek Cypriots and Girne by the Turks.
Situated on the north coast of Cyprus, this port has a 6,000-year long history and the remains of countless civilizations. Bounded to the north by the sea and to the south by the greenery of the Besparmak (Fivefinger) Mountain range, it offers the most magnificent scenery on the island.
The beautiful old harbour is dominated by a majestic castle which houses a museum containing the remains of an ancient ship which was salvaged from the sea.
This is a good place to provision.
Position 35°20.46’N, 33°20.30’E (commercial harbour)

Docking
It has been reported the yachts are no longer permitted to berth in the old harbour.
Berths are to be found in the Delta Marina, situated in the commercial harbour. It lies about 1nm to the east and provides good shelter.
The Harbourmaster will provide pilotage information on VHF channel 16.
In calm, settled weather it is possible to anchor just outside the marina.
