The Genoese Port

The inlet is an ideal place for staying overnight, with the rocks towering up like straight walls on both sides. A small beach leaning against a pine forest, is located south of the inlet. You can tie the sailboat by roping at the back, towards the east. In this case, it will be possible to sleep without swaggering during the night.

The height of Eren Tepe (Hill) in the west is 782 m and it towers like a steep wall. The rock in the east also towers, starting right above the sea. You can tie your sailboat to the rocks here. The shrubs growing among steep rocks, add to the beauty of this exquisite inlet.

Although you can drop anchor everywhere in the inlet, the most ideal place of anchorage is the east side. The inlet of Sazan is behind this inlet. These two inlets are back to back. A small inlet located northeast of the Beach of Adrasan is not convenient for anchoring and therefore it is used only as a halting place. The ruins of Olympos, which are very near, can be visited and the Genoese Port provides the possibility of return.

The wide sand beach in front of Olympos is not fit for staying overnight. You can drop anchor in the direction of the river that flows through the ruins of Olympos, visit these interesting ruins and then depart in order to spend the night elsewhere.
