Hidden Gems of Gökçeada
Gökçeada’s lesser-known landscapes range from the westernmost tip of Turkey at İnce Burun to the unusual geological formations of Peynir Kayalıkları, where horizontal rock layers resemble stacked cheese wheels. The island's interior features freshwater reservoirs like Şirinköy and Uğurlu Göleti, which support local agriculture and wildlife. Atatürk Korusu provides a shaded pine-covered area near the coast, offering a contrast to the dramatic coastal cliffs and open pastures that define the island’s quiet western and northern shores.
