Ferryboat
Although Taşucu is a traditional ferryboat port for Girne(Kyrenia) in Turkish Northern Cyprus, it can be quite difficult to get any information on whether ferries are operating, and if they are, when, and at what fare. Akgünler Denizcilik has schedules for these ferries, but all is in Turkish only. More…
