Bencik Bay

Bencik Bay reaches deeper into the mainland than any other cove in Hisarönü Gulf — a narrow inlet flanked by forested limestone cliffs that drop straight into deep water. There's no village, no road, no light; just pine trees and the sound of the water. The bay is so well-protected that even strong meltem days produce flat anchorages, and the seafloor falls away to 20+ metres close to shore, letting big yachts pull in tight against the rock. A small canteen on the eastern side occasionally serves grilled fish, but most boats stay self-contained. The bay narrows so much at the head that, geographically, only a 700-metre strip of land separates it from the open Aegean on the other side. Season runs May through October; quietest in May and September.

Recommended duration: ideal for 1 days
