Location: Turkey

Yesilkoy does not have a dedicated commercial marine port as it is primarily a residential and tourist area in Istanbul, Turkey. However, it is situated on the northern coast of the Sea of Marmara, not far from Istanbul's significant maritime facilities, including the famous Port of Ambarli and the Port of Istanbul, as well as the Atatürk International Airport, which is now largely replaced by the Istanbul New Airport for international and cargo flights.

Although Yesilkoy may have smaller marina facilities for private and leisure boats, it does not serve as a commercial port for large-scale shipping and logistics operations. For such operations, the nearby ports, like Ambarli and Istanbul, are functional and equipped with the necessary infrastructure for handling commercial activities, such as cargo, container shipping, and passenger services.
