Karaincir Beach

Karaincir is one of those beaches that earns its hype — a 500-meter stretch of fine sand on the southwestern tip of the Bodrum peninsula, with unusually shallow, calm water that stays gentle even when the wind picks up elsewhere. You anchor off and dinghy in to a wide, flat beach that's popular with locals and well set up with sunbeds and beach bars. The nearby village of Akyarlar is a short walk away if you want to grab food or supplies.
