Sarsala Bay

Sarsala Bay is one of the larger anchorages in Gocek Bay — a 600-metre-wide inlet ringed by Mediterranean pines that drop straight to the water's edge. The seafloor is sandy and the water shallow enough to see the anchor chain through 8 metres of clarity, making it a favourite for first-time charterers. There's no village, no road, no infrastructure beyond a single small restaurant on the south shore that takes a dinghy or swim-in customers. Half a dozen other anchorages sit within a 30-minute sail — Bedri Rahmi, Manastır, Tersane — making Sarsala a natural base for a slow Gocek loop. Season runs May through October; June and September stay quiet.

Recommended duration: ideal for 1 days
