Where is the Datca cruise port?

There is no conventional cruise terminal in Datca. First-party sailing notes describe the call with the ship at anchor off the harbour town. The mapped point is Google Places Datca Limani — the marina and harbour on the Iskele waterfront (36.7226607, 27.6887917) — a harbour/marina pin, not a verified cruise berth face.

Cumhuriyet Meydani on Ataturk Caddesi is about a 5-minute flat waterfront walk (~390 m). How passengers transfer from the anchored ship (tender vs other) is not stated in first-party wording; confirm ashore arrangements onboard for each sailing.

About Datca

Datca is a small district town on the narrow Datca Peninsula in Mugla Province, southwestern Turkey, where the Aegean meets the Mediterranean. The present town centre sits at Iskele on the south coast of the peninsula, about midway between the mainland root near Marmaris and the tip at ancient Knidos.

The setting is a low, hilly peninsula of pine, olive and almond groves, with a compact harbour waterfront, stone streets in Old Datca (Eski Datca) a few kilometres inland, and a long history tied to Knidos. Small-ship itineraries treat Datca as a quiet harbour call and a jumping-off point for Knidos, honey farms and coastal walks rather than a large resort berth.

Climate
Datca has a Mediterranean climate with mild winters and very hot, dry summers. Official WMO station Datca (17297) on the peninsula (about 1.6 km from Datca Limani) shows mean daily temperatures from about 12.3°C in January to about 28.8°C in August, with August mean maxima around 33°C. Rainfall is winter-wet and summer-dry: about 687 mm a year, near zero in July–August and about 148–150 mm in December–January.
