Karpaz Gate Marina: Announces Special Rates for Boat Owners Looking for East Mediterranean Sanctuary
Karpaz Gate Marina provides a convenient and nearby sanctuary for boat owners requiring an urgent escape from less tranquil areas of the East Mediterranean who are worried about safety issues. It also offers an alternative tax-free base for people affected by new VAT criteria.
Enabling boaters to stay in the region and start their season early in a secure and calm marina with premium facilities, the unique marina offers a number of benefits to berth holders including minimal custom formalities, simple and easy paperwork and no limit on duration of stay.
Deniz Akaltan, Karpaz Gate Marina Harbour Master, said: “We are seeing evidence of an increase in boats deciding to leave the East Mediterranean for a variety of reasons. Karpaz Gate Marina is therefore opening its doors and offering an immediate solution for boat owners who are worried about the safety of themselves, crew and family, and the security of their yacht, and also to those looking for a tax haven in the region.
“By berthing with us on the Karpaz Peninsula, clients can enjoy all the facilities and high standards expected of a premium development and, at the same time, benefit from our marina’s unique position in a secure, calm location on an isolated island which remains unaffected by the issues and uncertainty faced by nearby more crowded and developed areas.
“Our guests can stay as long as they wish. There are minimal custom formalities, and paperwork, visa issues and permit renewal are all easy. As we are tax free, this means cheaper mooring, labour and spare parts for our clients, plus no VAT or custom tax for foreign flag boats.
“We encourage boat owners not to leave the East Mediterranean area which they love, but to take advantage of our very reasonable prices and no-tax status and start their season early, re-assured that their yacht is in a safe and secure home.”
Boat owners can request a berthing quote by telephoning the marina office on +90 0533 833 7878 or email info@karpazbay.com.
