Bozcaada and Geyikli Travel Guide
I'm leaving you a little guide from our hosting experience :) I hope your island vacation will be unforgettable too!
Bozcaada: God's Gift to People
As Herodotus said: "God created Bozcaada so that people could live long." Bozcaada is a unique Aegean island where nature and history embrace each other, where peace and pleasure blend.
As Huzur Pansiyon, we have been experiencing the joy of hosting our guests in this enchanting atmosphere for years. Based on our own experiences, we have prepared suggestions for you to have the most enjoyable and fulfilling time you spend in Bozcaada and its surroundings.
Our Favorite Beaches
☀️ Ayazma – Fine sand, crystal clear sea, facility comfort. It can be a bit crowded at noon, but it is definitely worth it.
🪸 Aquarium – Like an underwater world for snorkelers. Don't forget to bring your sea goggles.
🌾 Habbele – If you want a quieter, more peaceful alternative, you can choose it.
⛺ Sulubahçe – Camping atmosphere, one with nature.
🍹 You can swim in the sea from Salhane – Pier and enjoy a midday cocktail.
Breakfast & Dessert
🥐 Çiçek Pastanesi – My favorite is the mouth-watering and gumdrop cookie.
☕ Çınaraltı – An island classic for morning coffee.
🍰 Lucky Shop – Bombastic dessert
🍽️ Eating and Drinking During the Day
🍔 Kechi – Burger is delicious, fast but careful.
🍕 In Vino – Stop by if you want a wine + pizza/seafood combo.
🍹 Sapa / Salhane / Kedi – For a cocktail break. Salhane and Kedi are especially enjoyable towards sunset.
☕ I recommend you not to leave without trying Madam’s Coffee – Island Breeze!
Wine & Sunset
🍇 For tasting: Corvus, Talay, Ataol, Çamlıbağ, Amadeus
🌅 For sunset : Polente Lighthouse
It makes sense to go with a director's chair or a picnic blanket. Take your wine and enjoy the view.

Geyikli: Address of Peace
Geyikli, where Huzur Pansiyon is located, is a quiet Aegean town surrounded by nature. This is not only a gateway to Bozcaada, but also a place worth seeing for its own beauty.
Alexandria Troas Ancient City
Once an important Roman port, this ancient city is a fascinating exploration route for history buffs.
🧢 Don't forget to take a hat, water and comfortable shoes as you will be in the sun for a long time in the summer.
+ Advice: On your way out you can have a cool drink at the nearby Dalyan Beach.
Assos & Athena Temple
If you want to experience the elegance of the ancient world, Assos and the Temple of Athena on the hill are just for you.
📸 When you climb the hill, a magnificent Aegean view awaits you. Try to come here during sunset hours.
Geyikli Beach & Odunluk Beach
The central coast of Geyikli is ideal for swimming and sunbathing with its clean Blue Flag beach.
🪑 You can relieve the tiredness of the day in the tea gardens on the coast.
🎶 In the evening, the Odunluk area along the coast offers a pleasant evening with live music venues and beach restaurants.
Troy Ancient City & Troy Museum
You can follow the traces of Homer's Trojan War legend in this ancient city and in the modern Troy Museum right next to it.
🎟️ Museum Pass is valid, inside there are wonderful multimedia presentations and original works from the excavations.
Gokceada
The largest island in Türkiye. A true "slow travel" destination with its organic products, natural bays and peaceful life.
⛴️ It is possible to reach by ferry, but in windy weather I recommend checking the sailing conditions in advance.
Dalyan & Heart Lake
This small lake, a natural wonder that resembles a heart shape when viewed from above, is a place you may have seen frequently on social media :)
🏖️ You can swim in the sea right next to it and enjoy your coffee or appetizers in the sweet coastal venues.
🍽️ A great alternative to the Pisces + sunset plan.
🪑 You can relieve the tiredness of the day in the tea gardens on the coast.
🎶 In the evening, the Odunluk area along the coast offers a pleasant evening with live music venues and beach restaurants.
