Göbün

It is the most sheltered of the Göcek bays. A bay sheltered from all weather conditions is also a winter harbor. 

Many yachtsmen spend the winter here. The nearby Sarsala bay is connected to Dalaman by road, so there are no supply problems.

This sheltered but small and narrow bay is entered between two high hills. In fact, the entrance to the bay is not visible from a distance unless carefully observed.

The depth decreases from the entrance. The average depth inside the harbor is between 5-7 meters. The western part of the bay is completely shallow. It is said that there are underwater ancient ruins beneath this shallow area.

Large vessels cannot enter due to the lack of maneuvering space in the narrow harbor.

There is a restaurant opposite the entrance of Göbün Bay. This restaurant has long piers in front of it and on the port side of the entrance. Behind the eastern pier where vessels can moor stern-to, there is an old quay. The shallowness and stones of this quay extend to the front of the wooden pier. Especially the restaurant side becomes quite shallow. For this reason, it is advisable to enter the pier bow-first. At points where you think the depth is sufficient, a wave from an incoming motor yacht can cause your rudder blade to hit the stones. Although the restaurant operators have prepared long wooden gangways, keep this in mind.

This restaurant is the first restaurant of the Göcek Bays. The restaurant, operated for years by a diver from Kayaköy and his wife, is now run by their family with expanded facilities. In the bay without electricity connection, the restaurant's electricity needs are met by solar energy panels and their connected battery groups-inverter. No generator noise is heard in the bay. The facility also has a men's barber by the seaside. Water sports services are also provided in the bay.

The bay is surrounded by olive and pine trees. There are ruins on the western shore. With the small path leading from the shore to the hills, you may have the opportunity to view the Göcek Bays from higher angles, especially in the late afternoon.

WARNING:

This bay is subject to anchoring prohibition enforcement, there are mooring buoys. 

Those who wish to use the bay can learn about accommodation and reservation conditions from the DERİA (deria.gov.tr) system.
