The main metropolis of the Black Sea Coast in Turkey is the city of Trabzon, ancient Trebizond.
The city lies on the edge of high mountains, which border the deep waters of the Black Sea.
One of the most beautiful cities that has
not yet been discovered by mass tourism
is the ancient city of
Sinope, on the
Northernmost tip of Turkey. The city has
beaches, museums, ancient fortifications
and many pleasant cafés and restaurants.
One very pleasant town in the Western
Black Sea region, the ancient region of
Paphlagonia, is the old Genoese trading
port of Amastris, modern
Amasra.
