Add to favorites
  • Start your day early by driving to Sinop, enjoying the scenic roads with views of lush green hills and the Black Sea. Once you arrive, start at the Sinop Fortress, wandering through the historical walls and towers, imagining the tales of ancient times. The sea breeze and panoramic views provide a perfect romantic backdrop.
  • For lunch, visit a local restaurant known for fresh fish and traditional Turkish meze. Try specialties like fried anchovies (hamsili) or the Black Sea's unique cornbread (mฤฑsฤฑr ekmek). Enjoy your meal with a view of the harbor, where fishermen bring in the day's catch.
  • In the afternoon, head to the serene Erfelek Tatlฤฑca Waterfalls. Take a leisurely walk through the natural trails, occasionally stopping at the cascading falls for great photo opportunities. The sound of water and the shade of trees offer a cool respite from the summer heat.
  • Finish your day at Hamsilos Fjord, the only fjord in Turkey, where you can enjoy swimming in the pristine waters. The sun setting over the calm sea will be the perfect end to an amazing day. Share thoughts on your favorite parts of the trip as you lounge on the beach.

Preparation steps:

  • Pack comfortable clothing and shoes as a lot of walking and some light trekking are involved. Bring swimwear and a towel for the time at Hamsilos Fjord. Don't forget sunscreen and a hat, as August is quite sunny.
  • Make sure to leave early to make the most of your day. Check car conditions, especially tires and brakes, as you will travel through some hilly terrain. A pre-prepared music playlist could enhance your journey.
  • Book a table at the fish restaurant in advance to secure the best spot, preferably one with a view of the sea. Also, check the opening times of each venue to better plan your visit timings.
