Eski Foca - Clearance
This is a Port of Entry from mid-May to September end only.
For the full details on clearance go to the Noonsite/Turkey/Formalities page.
It is not recommended as a clearance port as the various authorities are not all located in the town. There is one travel agency that can sell you a transit log and they may or may not have any on hand when you need it. To get one, either you or they, have to travel to Izmir which is 64 kms away (39.7 miles) to buy one. There is no agent in town to assist with the clearance process, so you must do it yourself. The Health Police are located in Aliaga which is 42 kms (26 miles) away. Read the reports section for information about clearance here.

The local municipality does run a “marina” of sorts off the city wall to the east of the town’s main square. The phone # is +90 232 812 5088. In the three years that we have been to this port, we have never docked in this marina as we are told there is no room. Maybe you all will have better luck. MV LeeZe 2015-09-17
Blue Card Scheme update: 2014-06-23, from M/V LeeZe:
As of this date, Kusadasi and Cesme are still not using the card.
When checking in at Eski Foca, The Port Captain wanted to see my card. There is no pump out capability shore side but never asked the Gulet captains what they do. There is no pump out boat either.
As we travel more North, there appears to be even less concern given to black water discharge. If something changes, we will post.
