About
Datos rápidos: The crescent-shaped coast offers calm and photogenic views where trees almost touch the sea. Visitors often refer to it as 'Turkey's only fjord', and the coastal inlets and shallow waters are inviting to explore.
Destacados: On morning walks when the scent of pine mixes with the salty air, the tree silhouettes reflecting like mirrors on the water surface make striking photos. As small boats approach the narrow inlets, the echoes from the rocky walls and the green tones of the seaweed swaying in the wind make the scene almost cinematic.
Insider tips
- Wear sturdy shoes for uneven rocky trails and coastal cliffs.
- Bring a telephoto lens for seabirds and a wide-angle for the inlet panorama.
- Avoid midday when day-trip crowds arrive; aim for sunrise or late afternoon for fewer people.
- Carry water and sun protection, there is limited shade along the main viewpoints.
