Kunta Kinte Bucht Datça

Kunta Kinte Cove is a small wooded anchorage on the north side of the Datça peninsula, on the Hisarönü Gulf coast. The cove takes its informal name from a comparison made by visiting German gulet crews in the 1980s to the African village in Alex Haley's Roots — a name that stuck on charter maps even though the cove's Turkish name is little used locally. The bay cuts into the pine-covered shore for about 300 metres, with a small pebble beach at the head and depths reaching 8-15 metres over sand. The cove offers shelter from the prevailing summer northwesterlies and is used as a lunch and swim stop on the Datça day-sail circuit. There are no facilities and no road access. Kunta Kinte is 90 minutes from Datça by sail. Season runs May through October.

Recommended duration: ideal for 1 days
