Eski Foca - Docking
Visiting yachts are authorized to anchor within 275 meters (300 yards) of 38° 40.380’N, 026° 44.880’E.
If anchoring on the west side, ensure the anchor is well dug in as the bottom is not the best holding and the bay shelves quickly to 20 meters or so.
There are some visitors’ berths on the quay in front of the town on the east side of the bay. The trawlers berthed at the northern end provide additional shelter. See comment below about this informal “marina”.

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.
