Ferry crossing for Gelibolu Population: 16,000
Old name: Lampsacus
Market day: Saturday
In terms of things to do or even things to look at Lapseki is singularly uninspiring. However, it is a major ferry crossing point with half-hourly sailings to Gelibolu on the Gallipoli Peninsula.
Some of the bus companies used to use this crossing to get from Çanakkale to Edirne or İstanbul rather than use the crossing from Eceabat to Çanakkale. However, the opening of the Çanakkale 1915 Köprüsü (bridge) has probably reduced ferry usage.
