Setting
Outdoor
Entry note: Boat from Ölüdeniz or road plus short walk; minimal facilities.
Günlüklü Koyu sits on the far side of the peninsula from the Ölüdeniz lagoon, reachable by boat or a winding road and footpath. Sweetgum and pine shade a narrow beach, and the bay sees a fraction of Belcekız crowds. It suits a self-catered picnic day or a boat captain's quiet anchor.
“For clear water near Ölüdeniz without lagoon sunbed density.”
Local tip
There is no shop — pack water and food; shade is good but midday sun on the path is harsh.
Accessibility
Rough path from road; boat is easier.
