Kocabahçe

It is located between Kargıcık and Ayı Capes, extending half a mile inward to the southwest. It narrows towards the end between high hills.

It is a deep bay, but shoals towards the end.

When entering the bay, attention must be paid to the debris in front of Kargıcık Cape.

One can anchor at 10-20 meters along the steep north shore of the bay and moor stern-to shore. On the south shore of the bay, a small stream flows into the sea from a beach-like section. However, these sections are exposed to wind.

Kocabahçe Bay receives winds and squalls over the mountains. Winds may also come from these slopes at different angles.

At the end of the bay, there is a wooden pier belonging to a facility. Behind it are the mooring buoys belonging to the restaurant. Similarly, there are mooring buoys belonging to this restaurant on both sides of the pier. The buoys are close to shore. In windy weather, mooring must be done in one attempt.

It is a very beautiful bay with pristine waters. The pier is reserved almost every day. The food at the family-run restaurant set up in a medium-sized garden is excellent. Vegetables and fruits grown in their garden come to your table. Fresh village bread is also baked in the special oven in the garden every morning. Eggs from the coop in the garden come to the kitchen and become omelets.

It is a lush green, warm area. There is a water well in the garden, and water supply is provided to vessels upon request. There is no road connection. The operators get their supplies from Germe Bay.

There is no electricity. A generator runs, and after everything is finished at night, the generator is shut off and the bay becomes pitch dark. It has a completely different atmosphere on moonlit nights.

Vessels anchored at somewhat deeper depths in the middle of the bay are also witnessed. Because the air and water are excellent. It is never oppressive.
