Gumusluk

Gumusluk is a small village at the tip of the Bodrum Peninsula about 30 minutes drive from city center. This peaceful traffic free village seems a world away from the hustle and bustle of modern life, away from the well-trodden tourist track in the west of the peninsula. The whitewashed houses are covered with colorful flowers.

Head for the two narrow sandy beaches and take your swimming gear, each curling around its own bay and separated by a beautiful rounded islet.

Once you’ve had enough of sunbathing and swimming in the calm, clear waters, sip a local beer or chilled wine at a friendly fish restaurant or cafe along the waterfront, for which the village is famous and where you can sometimes choose your own fish straight from the fisherman’s crate or wade through the shallows to the offshore Rabbit Island.

Weekly market day is Wednesday in Gumusluk.

Everyone has to visit Gumusluk to sample the wonderful seafood restaurants. 45min drive from Bodrum Int. Airport and 10min. drive into Yalikavak town centre.
