Kas
is another place to do shopping and banking needs. The yacht harbor is
protected by a breakwater against the winds blowing from the west and
southwest and at the end of the harbor there is a lighthouse. There would
be no problem in entering the yacht harbor where your needs such as water,
diesel oil and ice can be met. The yacht harbor of Kas with latitudinal
position 36 degrees 12'58" north and longitudinal position 29 degrees
40'30" east, is in the extreme South of Turkey and therefore the climate
there is lukewarm even in winter. The electricity used at the harbor is of
220 volts and communications are made by means of the coastal wireless
station. The call-sign is TAC-2 and it is transmitted through 16 channels.
Shops have been opened owing to the development of tourism and shopping
can be done easily in them. The food eaten in the restaurants at the coast
is also very good and leaves pleasant memories. In addition to these,
since Kas is an administrative district, the needs concerning services
such as P.T.T.,(Mail-Telegraph-Telephone) pharmacy, dentistry and medical
services can also be met. It is possible to spend the night at the Harbor
of Bayindir in the vicinity of Kas too. Entry into the harbor must be made
carefully because of the rocks in front of Ince Burun where a lighthouse
is located. The space in front of the rocky beach in the southeast end of
the harbor is the safest place of anchorage. Since the southeast direction
is a shallow and rocky sandbank, the sailing vessels must not come
alongside too near there and they must be tied up in the southwest
direction.
