Tirebolu, Administrative district in Giresun Province, Turkey
Tirebolu rises from the Black Sea shore near the Harşit River estuary, positioned on a hill called Ayana with coastal features and mountainous terrain.
The settlement originated as Tripolis, established in 656 BC by the Ancient Greek city-state of Miletos as one of ninety trading colonies along the Black Sea coast.
The district maintains strong connections to Black Sea traditions through regular community gatherings, traditional music performances, and regional dance celebrations.
The district contains a small harbor supporting local fishing operations while maintaining road connections to major cities and offering various accommodation options.
The name Tirebolu emerged after the Chepni people settled in the region during the 13th century, replacing the Greek designation Tripolis meaning three cities.
