Akyaka, on the shore of the Gulf of Gökova, has become a calm, peaceful and noiseless holiday paradise, protected from the cold as its back is leaning on Sakartepe, which rises upright. Akyaka is especially popular with holidaymakers for its numerous surprises.

Sakartepe appears before you while leaving Muğla and heading towards Marmaris. And suddenly you come across the Gulf of Gökova with its inconvenient view. Now, stop like this; You can both breathe and take a break, and watch the insatiable panorama inside you. We are going to Akyaka, a paradise on earth that embraces Gökova, the heart of the Mediterranean at the foot of Sakartepe. Akyaka is the favorite of holidaymaking families with its numerous surprises.

When you come to Sakartepe on the way from Muğla to Marmaris, the Gulf of Gökova stretches as far as your eyes can see. You are 934 meters high while watching the view that looks like you are on the plane when the wide and multi-lane ramp turns you down. As you descend towards the sea level and approach the intersection, the sign “pier” on your right might not even attract your attention. Either you have to go to Marmaris in the tunnel of the Okalyptus trees that stretch like a rope in front of you, which is one of our most pleasurable ways to drive, or to go to holiday centers such as Köyceğiz, Dalyan, Ekincik, Fethiye, Göçek from the next road. If you follow the road to the right as you finish the descent of Sakar Pass, you will reach a true heaven on earth, a kind of shelter of peace. This is Akyaka village with its small, charming, attractive and educational houses located on the coast of Gökova.
