Docking
There are six laid moorings available close to the marina in the small sheltered bay between Yilanci Burnu and the castle. Be aware that the holding on these moorings is reported to be unreliable (see comments section).
Alternatively, yachts can berth in the marina and an attendant will direct you to a berth. Shelter is excellent, although some swell can penetrate the marina in very strong winds. There are laid moorings so no need to use your anchor. A useful place to winter the boat.
