Considering that it is a quiet holiday destination, we can say that what brings people to Karaburun is the sea like an aquarium.. At least it was like that for us and we went to almost all Karaburun bays and beaches.. After traveling so much, we would not have prepared a list for those who like to see new coves and swim in different beaches like us.. In our list you can find Places to swim in Karaburun and all information about these places in detail.

1- Incirlikoy (Aquarium) Beach

Located in the center of Karaburun and A blue flag beach, which is very popular because it can be reached on foot.. Of course, İncirlikoy Beach’s clear sea like an aquarium and its sandy beach with all kinds of possibilities increase its popularity.. It can be a bit crowded when the beach is small and demand is high.. By the way, there can be an incredible jellyfish 3-4 days a year, it didn’t happen to us, we hope it doesn’t happen to you either.. Its entrance gives the impression that you have come to a private establishment, but Incirlikoy beach is free. The facility here is owned by the municipality and you do not need to pay any fees to use the beach.. Although it is not a private enterprise, we can say that it is among the best-run Karaburun beaches.. When you do not enter the facility and proceed a little further, you will see the stairs descending to the rocks between the houses, you can swim from here, but the place where the facility is located is more comfortable because it is very rocky.. Prices are generally reasonable 2 sunbeds and 1 umbrella price 50 TL, you can also fill your stomach for 25-30 TL in the restaurant.. In addition, the number of personnel is sufficient and there is no problem in the service.

If you are going to stay in the center and go to the beaches within walking distance, we can say that Incirlikoy Beach is the most beautiful beach to swim in Karaburun.

2- Bodrum Beach

The Bodrum Beach, with its stony sea and beach, is a not very wide blue flag public beach. Since the stones on the beach are round, sea shoes are not required, but if you do, you will be comfortable.. Meanwhile the sea is getting deep very fast. In general, it is not suitable for children.

There are sunbeds and umbrellas belonging to the municipality, but as with most of the beaches in the center of Karaburun, you have to go a little early to find a place.. By the way, if you are late, there are also paid ones; 2 sunbeds and 1 umbrella price 50 TL. The beach has toilets and changing cabins but no showers. There are also kiosks where you can meet your small needs.

3- Mimoza Bay Beach

It would not be an exaggeration to say that there is no such thing as a beach because of the businesses that are built almost intertwined with the sea.. Mimoza Bay beach is similar to other Karaburun bays, except that it is narrow.. The biggest feature is that there are almost no waves even in very windy weather.. There are also the piers belonging to the enterprises, a beach you can prefer if you want to swim in the sea without your feet touching the stone.

4- Hamzabükü

If you ask which is the most beautiful bay in Karaburun, our answer is nothing. becomes Hamzabuku without thinking. In fact, not only as a cove, but also Hamzabuku is one of our favorite and memorable places in Karaburun.. We don’t know if we love it so much because the beach is entirely our own.. Because we went at the end of the summer and there was no one on the beach, we do not think that it is very crowded even in summer, since the road is a bit troublesome.

You can reach Hamzabuku from the center of Karaburun in about half an hour.. The road alone is a bit troublesome, especially the road down to the bay; slightly narrow, steep and winding. We even go this far on our way, but we couldn’t help but wonder if it would be worth it.. When we saw the clean sea and wide beach, we said we are glad we came.. The bottom of the sea is stony, so it is useful to have your sea shoes with you.. The temperature of the water is just right, you feel the coolness of the sea like this, but you do not feel cold.

Only Hamzabükü is not a place where you can go and swim in the sea.. A place where you can prepare your food and drink, bring your umbrella, chair, etc., and spend a good time all day.. Even if you come unprepared, you will not want to go back when you see Hamzabükü beach and sea.. However, since there is no place to shop and you cannot find shade, you will wish we had come prepared.. Let’s say the following for those who say they’ll get expenses; The nearest market is at Yeniliman, 20 minutes away, and Karaburun center is also 30 minutes away..

5- Kumbükü

If the calmness of Hamzabükü has not stopped you, if you go a little further to the Hasseki village and find Kumbükü here, you will find the silence and calmness you want.. A slightly smaller and, as the name suggests, a sandy beach. Hamzabükü may be the most beautiful bay in Karaburun, but Karaburun’s most untouched bay is also undisputed Kumbükü.

6- Badembükü

When you go with navigation, the road takes you to the area that belongs to Badem Kafe. We couldn’t understand when we first went, the owner of the business came to us as he saw the car from afar and said that there is only one direct entrance fee.. He had an attitude as if the bay was his own and there was no other crossing.

When we went, it was very wavy and we had enough of swimming in Hamzabükü, and on top of that, we lost our taste when we were greeted by a business that blocked the way.. As far as Sazak Village, which we will explain below, there is not much road to Badembükü.. Otherwise, we would be upset if we had only come this way for Badembükü.

By the way, vehicle entry is prohibited because there are Sand Lilies on Badembükü beach. In other words, it is not a private bay as the owner says, you can reach Badembükü by going further from the enterprise and parking your car in the village, and walking on the path to Badembükü.

7- Dolungaz Bay

The one which is 4-5 km from the center. It is a bit difficult to reach Dolungaz Bay without a private vehicle.. In fact, the road is not suitable for the vehicle, it has a slightly broken road, but it is not a problem because it is a short distance.. About 100 meters from the beach, you have to park your car and walk.

The color of the sea is beautiful in all of Karaburun Bays, after all, it’s the same sea, but Dolungaz Bay is completely different.. It has a turquoise color and the cliffs bring out the color of the sea even more.. Of course, this color also shows how clean the sea is.. If you bring a snorkel with you, you can see a lot of fish, although the water is so clear that the fish can be seen even without the snorkel.. Also, since the entrance to the beach and the sea is stony, you’d better bring your sea shoes.. There can also be sea urchins on the rocks, there is not much sea shoes can do for it, so we say be careful.

Dolungaz Bay is not very big; it is a place to say a big pool. The beach is almost non-existent, but you can find shaded places in the wooded area at the back.. There is a private camping area here and there are no showers, toilets or any other services outside of this facility.. Since there is no place to shop other than the small kiosk in the campsite, it is a good idea to bring everything with you.

8- Manal Bay

Mordoğan located at the entrance of Manal Bay, it is quite sheltered. a bay. In windy weather, almost any of the Karaburun Bay is calm even when it is not possible to swim from the waves.. Since the water is stagnant, it is a little warmer, but there is not such a big difference.. In addition, the beach is narrow and the sea is shallow.

Manal Bay is a very popular and often crowded bay.. However, the possibilities here are somewhat narrow; parking is limited, the number of toilets is very few and there is no place like a grocery store or market to shop.. Although there are free umbrellas in the section with the public beach, you have to go very early to find a place.. Apart from this, there is also a private business, if you can’t find a place at the public beach, you can rent sunbeds and umbrellas from here.. However, the people living in the houses around the bay look at you as if you have entered their garden, and they clearly show that they are uncomfortable with you.

9- Bear Fish Bay

Another beautiful bay in Mordoğan. Bear Fish Bay. The bay is beautiful, but let’s not lie, it is not a place to go in the season.. There are hotels and beach-style businesses that have completely closed the beach.. If you want to open my umbrella and sit on my chair, there is no such place.. If you ask me to pay and use the facility, it is too crowded.

10- Boyabağı Bay

Boybağı Bay, located between Karaburun and Mordoğan , a cove preferred by those who stay on both sides. The beach is so narrow that it is almost non-existent and you can’t find a place to throw a towel even in the calmest times of summer.. The beach is pebbly, the entrance to the sea is stony, the water is clean and a little cool.. After entering the water, when you pass the rocky part, the water exceeds your height, but if you go up to 20 meters, it becomes shallow again and these parts are sand.

There are no showers, toilets or any service except private businesses.. The road is a bit rough and there is a shortage of parking.. For this reason, you have to leave your vehicle behind and take the risk to walk.

11- Gonsuz Bay

Hamzabuku and Sarpıncık Lighthouse Gonsuz bay may not be the most beautiful beach to swim in Karaburun, but we can say that it is one of the most untouched bays.. It is less preferred as the road is a bit rough.. It is not a road that cannot be traveled like that, you can even reach it by a passenger car, provided that you are a little careful.

Gönsüz Bay is a small and not very sheltered cove with rocks on both sides.. Therefore, it can be wavy in windy weather.. In other words, it is a completely natural place, not one of the Karaburun bays, which are very large and have facilities; no shower or toilet. Don’t expect electricity or anything like that, and the phone doesn’t work either.. In fact, these are what make this place beautiful; a beautiful beach and a clear sea are enough. There’s also a perfect sunset, so what else?

12- İğdeleraltı Beach

If such a beach were anywhere else, it wouldn’t be last but Karaburun coves and beaches it is so beautiful that İğdeleraltı Beach is inevitably left to the end. Although the beach is reached by a staircase descending between the houses, it was not as small as we thought.. Having a pier on the beach is a great advantage because it makes it easier to swim in the sea as there are rocks and sea urchins.
