Alaçatı Windsurf Bay
Alaçatı Sörf Plajı
A shallow bay south of Alaçatı. Steady summer north winds have made it a renowned European windsurfing destination, lined with surf schools.
The windsurf bay lies about 4 km south of Alaçatı town. The bay is shallow, with a flat bottom and a steady wind. On summer afternoons the north wind (Meltem) often reaches force 4 to 6, making it regarded as a world-class training and competition site for windsurfing. Along the shore are more than a dozen windsurfing and kitesurfing schools offering equipment rental and multilingual instruction. An introductory course takes about 2 to 3 hours. Visitors who don't go into the water can watch the sea full of sails from the beach clubs. Nearby Alaçatı Harbor has restaurants and a yacht marina.
