Canakkale

Canakkale

As your ship threads her way toward Canakkale along the narrow Dardanelles Straits, you will appreciate the city´s position as a crucial link between Asia and Europe. It has been an active trading port and military center since Sultan Ahmet II built his fortress there in 1452, and it still bustles with ships, freighters, ferries, and small Turkish boats called caiques - all easily viewed from outdoor cafes along the harbor. Ancient Troy lies close by, these excavations may be the high-light of your call.

Currency

The local currency is the Turkish lira.
