Shallow Sea, Fine Sand: Akyarlar
At the southwest tip of the peninsula, next to Turgutreis, Akyarlar is known for its fine-sand beach and clear sea that stays shallow for a long way out — making it one of the safest addresses on the peninsula for families with children.
Across the water stretch the lights of the Greek island of Kos; in the evenings you dine facing this view at the fish restaurants lining the shore. In its coves bearing the old Greek name Kefaluka, the town still keeps that calm, settled air.
Akyarlar is also famous for its wind: its open cape is among the peninsula's best spots for wind- and kitesurfing — families meet on the shallow sand in the morning, surfers offshore in the afternoon. Thanks to measured development, the natural line of the beach remains unspoilt.

What to Do in Akyarlar?
Sea with the children on the shallow sand by day, surfing or a short trip to Aspat Bay in the afternoon, fish facing the Kos view in the evening — an Akyarlar day is simple and peaceful. And those who climb to the ancient remains on Aspat Hill just behind are met by one of the peninsula's finest views.
