Guzelce Marina lies 22 miles W of the southern entrance to the [[Bosphorus]] (Strait of Istanbul), on the north coast of the [[Sea of Marmara]].  While still giving the appearance of being somewhat incomplete, the marina has alongside and stern-to berthing on its quays and jetties, water and electricity at all berths, toilets and showers, wifi and a huge area of hard standing for yachts wishing to lift out.  Shelter is good from all directions except SE (winds from this direction are luckily rare).
