O melhor de Bozcaada

Bozcaada Essentials

Bozcaada combines centuries of Aegean history with a renowned viticulture tradition. The island's landscape is defined by the massive 15th-century Bozcaada Castle and the historic Greek quarter’s cobblestone streets. Visitors can explore the island's heritage at the local history museum, visit the 19th-century Church of the Virgin Mary, or tour modern wineries like Corvus. Natural highlights include the cold-water Ayazma Beach and the western Polente point, where sunset views are framed by modern wind turbines and historic stone windmills.
