Entrance

Iğneada is not a port of entry. If you are leaving Turkey and traveling towards Bulgaria, Romania & Ukraine you will have had to clear out of Turkey from a Port of Entry (probably Istanbul). Once you have cleared out of Turkey the Igneada Turkish Coast Guard will not let you stay in Igneada except perhaps in bad weather for a limited time. You can not clear out of Turkey from Igneada.

Berthing

The harbor provides excellent all weather shelter.

You can either moor side-to on the west quay of the harbor or anchor off within the harbor.

Warning: If you have not yet cleared customs into Turkey or you have already cleared out the authorities may ask you not to land.
