Kilimli Koyu – Kilimli Bay
To reach Kilimli Bay, you first have to go to Ağva. It is possible to reach Ağva after a 4 hour journey via 139A buses leaving from Üsküdar. Afterwards, you can walk 5 km or take a taxi for 35-40 TL. It is forbidden to light fire and camping in the area because the beach is rented out and if you camp, you may be disturbed by the renter of that area.
Kadırga Koyu – Kadirga Bay
Agva Kadirga Bay 6-7 km from the center. is an undiscovered beauty. You can reach the amphitheater-like rock formations from Büyükbucaklı Village to a pleasant trekking about 1 km to the north.
These rock formations are also used as sun terrace today. The hills of the rocks are ideal for picnics.
