Datca located on a 100km long peninsula located to the west of Marmaris in Turkey, with the Aegean to the north and Mediterranean to the south. It is situated on the south west coast, with a spectacular mountain backdrop overlooking the vast, 10km long bay with Rhodes only 32km south. A small, traditional fishing village, it is very peaceful and surrounded by beautiful landscapes. Colourful flowers, spices and various healing herbs grow on the fields and mountain sides. Almonds, olives, honey and fish are all to be found in the local shops and markets.

Sailing Spot & Conditions

The vast bay of Datca is particularly suitable for slalom and freestyle windsurfers. Due to the cross-offshore wind, there are no big waves with flat water near the shore and choppy waves further out. In the morning, conditions are suitable for beginners.

In spring and autumn, unusual wind directions can create more challenging and wavy conditions. The wind conditions in Datca are among the best and steadiest in Turkey, possibly comparable to Karpathos. As is the case with every offshore wind, it is very gusty on the coast. After 200 metres, the wind can unfold its strength to its full extent.
