Ports of entry in Datça

Datça appears twice on the Directorate General of Security’s list: Datça is a permanent sea border gate, and Datça Körmen Yacht Harbour a temporary one. Körmen is on the peninsula’s north coast, facing the Gulf of Gökova, about 10 kilometres from the town centre.

How clearance works in Datça

Entry and exit are done on the transit log: passport control, customs, health and the harbour master complete their part in turn. Harbour formalities go through the Datça Harbour Master’s Office. We prepare the papers and meet you in the harbour.

Going to Symi or Rhodes and back?

Clearing out of Türkiye and back in is done on the transit log; Turkish flagged private boats also use it when they leave for abroad and return. We plan both legs with you.
