Aegean Turkey

Kusadasi

The marina is part of the Setur group and has excellent shelter and facilities, tennis courts, pool, cafes & bars, free wi-fi, laundry, and an excellent chandlery.  Kusadasi is a port to clear into Turkey and the marina staff will clear you in and arrange your visas and transit log for you at a cost of 40YTL (about 25euro).  The main town is a short walk away where this is excellent provisioning, fruit market on a friday.

Cesme

Marina pontoons now operational with water and electricity at every berth.  Tailed moorings not at every berth but you'll be directed to one that has.  Very empty in June '07.  No showers, toilets, or other facilities so expensive for what you get.  Good provisioning , internet, bars & restaurants ashore. Ebo at the "No Problem" bar was very friendly. There is a Setur marina the other side of the peninsular which we didn't visit.

Alacati

The marina is almost finished and the final tailed lines are being installed as we write. 100 ton travel hoist, water & electric to all berths, good showers & toilets and quite cheap. Wifi planned but not yet working although you can use the computer or your laptop in the office for free. 3km walk or taxi into the very attractive town is well worth it.

Sigacik

Marina pontoons are in place and there are some pontoons with cleats and tailed lines.  Further in the pontoons have no cleats and you have to go alongside with your lines around the pontoon mooring chains.  We weren't charged here over the weekend and saw no officials, we were greeted by one of the waiters from a local restaurant who said he could get us water and electricity, we declined. Basic provisioning.  Internet cafe across the dusty wasteland.

Yalikavak

New marina north of Bodrum 37^o 06'.40N  27^o16'.92E.  Excellent chandlery, laundry, free wifi, showers and toilets to die for! Good shelter from meltemi.  Attractive tourist village.  Dolmus to Bodrum.  Migros supermarket in marina.
