More notes about the Marina
Ataköy Marina is a large and very busy marina that mostly caters to expensive local motor cruisers. It is situated close to Istanbul airport and about 5 km from the city centre. There is a good bus or taxi service into Istanbul and the marinais a good base to leave a yacht for visiting the city. It has good security and a wide range of facilities, but berthing costs are not cheap. The marina will assist yachtsmen with visas and any required paperwork.

  • The marina entrance is oriented NE - the direction of the prevailing wind - and entry is challenging in strong winds from this direction. --Athene of Lymington 20:24, 7 June 2011 (BST)
