Only 18 km from Bodrum, Gundogan is one of the least known holiday resorts on the peninsula.
The village itself is small and calm with clean and enjoyable beaches. The cafes and tiny restaurants providing local food offer an authentic ambiance.
Nature lovers may appriciate the chance to join a guided trekking group to explore the surrounding countryside. A visit by boat to the nearby 'Apostol' Island with its ruined, but romantic, Byzantine church is always a delight.
Gundogan is situated at only a few minutes drive in the west of Yalikavak.
It is quite and peacefull place which is still more or less unspoiled despite the holiday developments on the surrounding hills. Since the north of the Bodrum Peninsula has often a fresh breeze, Many surfers prefer Gündogan Area.
