Datça sits on the isthmus between the Gökova and Hisarönü gulfs: a sheltered town harbour, a new marina at Körmen by the Bodrum ferry, and short hops to Palamutbükü and Knidos; the area is micro-tidal with reliable summer breezes/Meltemi.
The peninsula separates the Gökova and Hisarönü gulfs, so cruising naturally falls into short day sails both ways with weather-safe stops. In town you’ll find the municipal yacht quay; on the north shore the new Kairos (Körmen) Marina by the ferry line serves as a practical technical base and embarkation point.
Westbound routes lead to Palamutbükü and the historic Knidos anchorage (use in settled weather and mind depths). Tides are small; wind and pressure govern sea level and sea state, with summer sea-breeze/Meltemi phases common. Shore logistics are straightforward: Bodrum–Körmen ferries and road links to Marmaris, with provisioning along the waterfront.
