Hamsilos Bay

Hamsilos Bay at 42°03′40″N 35°02′36″E / 42.06111°N 35.04333°E / 42.06111; 35.04333 is to the west of Sinop, and to the east of İnceburun Lighthouse.

It is situated at the west end of Akliman , a long beach which is a popular excursion spot for the Sinop citizens.

The width of the bay is about 250 metres (820 ft) facing to east.

However in fact there are no fjords in Turkey and Hamsilos is only a cove with a peculiar shape.

But there are concerns about the future of the park because of the planned Sinop Nuclear Power Plant to the south of the Hamsilos Bay.
