About Koycegiz

Koycegiz is a delightful Town which lies at the northern end of Koycegiz Lake, an environment which is being preserved as a nature and wildlife sanctuary.

The view from the lakeside, where you can choose from a large number of places to relax and enjoy a refreshing drink, is breathtaking.

You can also choose from a variety of boats to take you through the maze of  river channels, perhaps taking in a visit to the nearby beautiful village of Dalyan which boasts the magnificent Rock Tombs, carved into the cliff face above the ancient city of Caunos.

Take a trip to the long, golden, sandy haven which is Iztuzu beach, also a nature conservation for the sea turtle (Caretta caretta) and blue crabs.
Or just relax aboard the boat taking in the wonderful scenery, stopping for lunch at one of the many restaurants which line the waterways.

On Mondays the town fills with an array of stalls selling everything from clothing to fruit and veg, and household wares, at the well known Koycegiz market. People (Turkish and holiday makers) from all over the locality step off the Dolmus (local transport) to enjoy the hustle and bustle.

There are plenty of shops and restaurants in Koycegiz, and beautiful scenery provided by the mountains and of course the lake.

Located only 1 hour from the popular and cosmopolitan resort of Marmaris, 30 minutes from the beautiful village of Dalyan, and only 45 minutes from Dalaman airport, Koycegiz is an ideal place to purchase or build your dream home, whether it will be a permanent residence or somewhere to escape to when you need a location which provides both entertainment or relaxation, not to mention the beautiful weather and scenery that Turkey is famous for.
