Explore: Akcakoca
General Info
This is a small town on the Black Sea coast about 150NM east of Istanbul. The old town is very well preserved and other attractions include the ruined castle and an interesting modern mosque.
Position: 41° 05.5’N, 31° 07.1’E (harbor entrance)
Docking
This small fishing harbor is well sheltered by breakwaters but is exposed in strong NW winds.
The depths in the harbor appear shallow, so care should be taken when entering. Alternatively, anchor just outside in settled weather.
Berth stern-to on the NE quay or alongside a fishing boat.
With the presence of a fishing fleet here, basic repairs can likely be carried out.
