Thought Sinop would be livelier, many shops close early and nightlife is sparse. Still safe and family friendly though.
Loved the fortress views but summer crowds make the promenade noisy. Food affordable, try the local pide stalls.
Charming seaside town, fresh fish everywhere and a slow pace. Perfect for a 2-3 day unwind, mornings foggy but afternoons sunny.
Expected more lively cafes, parts of the town felt sleepy and a bit run-down. Nice nature though, not for party seekers.
Beautiful views from the peninsula, but summer crowds and heat can be brutal. Go in shoulder season if you hate crowds.
