Selimiye

Selimiye is the fish-restaurant village in Hisarönü Gulf — a single string of meyhanes along the quay, each with a few tables set right at the water's edge. The boats anchor a few metres off, and you swim or row in for dinner; the day's catch comes from the same bay, often unloaded onto the table while you're still sitting at it. Beyond food, the village holds a small fortress on the hillside and a quiet beach reachable by dinghy. The water in front stays calm because the headland blocks the meltem, making this one of the safest overnight anchorages on the gulf. Bozburun is 30 minutes south by sail, Orhaniye 45 minutes north. Season runs May through October; June and September are the locals' favourite months.
