“Anchor (çapa)” in the narrow Mytilene waterfront area is a small but photogenic maritime stop: shoot the anchor as a texture foreground against the Aegean water, with Mt. Turkish coastline in the haze on clear days. Best light is sunrise for soft reflections; late afternoon gives crisp contrast. Expect limited shade and pedestrian access; arrive early for calm water and fewer passersby. No entry fees—park nearby in Mytilene and walk to the waterfront.
