Local Weather
See Turkey.
For most of the time, even in settled weather, winds blow down the Strait from the N and can funnel strongly in the narrower parts. It is not advisable to attempt a transit up to Poyraz in strong winds from N unless your engine is exceptionally powerful. In the harbour, the winds come mainly off the land, although in settled weather a light seabreeze can set into the harbour from SW. This should be borne in mind if anchoring amongst other yachts in these conditions.
See Bosphorus.
Danger: Very often there is a heavy fog and the strait is closed to traffic. Always listen to Bosphorus Control on the VHF (channels 11,12, and 13).
Offshore Islands and Groups
None.

Anchorages
The cove is crowded with local boats permanently moored there and usually there is no room for a visiting yacht. Anchoring here is hard due to the depths and the current.
