Guide
Ekincik Bay is one of the main stops for boats cruising the coast between Marmaris and Göcek. Hotels and guesthouses of every size crowd the beach and the area around the pier, and there are restaurants on the beach. Where the road reaches the sea there is a pier where yachts can moor, with shops that supply them, and the boats that carry day passengers to Dalyan also tie up here.
Getting there
A wide asphalt road connects Ekincik with Köyceğiz. From Köyceğiz the route runs through Hamitköy with views over the lake; after leaving Hamitköy and crossing the bridge, the top of the first long climb is a good place to stop for the view and for photographs.
