Gulluk Korfesi
| |
This gulf is NE of the island of Kos and the port of Bodrum and SE of the island of Samos and the port of Kusadasi. The gulf is home to scores of fish farms some of which are poorly marked and would be confusing at night. They seem professionally run and there is little sign of pollution.

Note: The berths are located at the outer side of the mole where some crude-stones extend in places, so watch your rudder!
Fuel available by tanker truck at the marina. Fuel also available from a lighter that comes through the harbour. The marina also controls a number of fixed moorings in the harbour.
Other mooring services are offered on VHF69 tel +90 530 312 9966. Alternately, try to anchor among the moorings in the harbour or anchor moor in 30 metres with a line ashore to the rocks in the north west corner behind Bueyuek Ad. One of the prettiest harbours in the area.

Asin Liman
Asin Liman
| |
Asin Liman (or Port Isene or Kuria or Kıyıkışlacık Liman) is an ancient harbor (formerly Iasos) in the almost landlocked Asin Körfezi. It a pleasant anchorage surrounded by the ruins of the ancient city and overlooked by a walled acropolis. Anchor moor to the quay if you can find space. Depths at the quay are a bit over over 2 meters but greater than 2.5 meters a couple of meters off. Water and electricity can be arranged on the quay. In season a local official will come by to collect 30tl. The bottom here is mud and provides good holding. Good shelter in the prevailing winds. Iassos used to be supplied with several good restaurants, there were two relatively modest ones in operation on a visit in June 2013.
Danger: The ancient breakwater is submerged and not always visible. The approach should be made some 15-20 meters off the old Byzantine tower on the starboard side.
Warning: With strong southerlies the anchorage is uncomfortable and may be dangerous.

A large bay with several mooring possibilities in very pleasant wooded surroundings. Either anchor in 5-7 m over sand or go on the wooden restaurant jetty (Kaptan Han telephone: +90 252 565 0022) on the eastern side where there is space for 6-8 yachts with a mooring line (in which case you will obviously be expected to eat in the restaurant). The mooring weights are a bit close to the dock (18m) and anchor mooring is advised for larger boats. Depths are >3 metres alongside the pontoons. Watch for stray lines on backing in. Free water and electricity at the limited connections. Good protection from the meltemi. Other restaurants ashore.
Warning: There are a lot of mosquitos here.
