Hamsilos Cove

Sinop city consists of two extensions: Inceburun and Boztepe, the city center. Hamsilos is a cove that gives its name to the region and takes place in the Inceburun section of the city. It was declared a natural protected area in 1991. Visitors can spend time in the area by trekking, sailing, bicycling, canoeing, camping, picnicking, and swimming. Hamsilos is approximately 11 km from the Inceburun Lighthouse, one of the other most visited sites, and 14 km from the city center.
