Kiliseburnu Tunnel (Turkish: Kiliseburnu Tüneli), is a highway tunnel constructed in Giresun Province, northern Turkey.[1]

Kiliseburnu Tunnel is part of the Giresun-Trabzon Highway D.010 E70 within the Black Sea Coastal Highway, of which construction was carried out by the Turkish Projima Tunnel Construction Company.[1] The 200 and 195 m (656 and 640 ft)-long twin-tube tunnel carrying two lanes of traffic in each direction is flanked by 367–367 m (1,204–1,204 ft)-long Arıdurak Tunnel in the west and 2,175–2,151 m (7,136–7,057 ft)-long Tirebolu-1 Tunnel in the east on the same highway.

The tunnel was opened to traffic on April 7, 2007 by Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.[2]
