Urla is an affluent area, a holiday location for many of the richer inhabitants of Izmir. This makes the region inherently safe, however to be able to combine a public marina with a pleasant holiday area attention has been paid to safety. The safety and security facilities at the marina include:

• Patrolled entries to the boats
• Customs and police offices
• Coastguard offices and two Coastguard cutters
• A medical centre
• A lifeboat
• A lighthouse
