Boutique Guesthouse · Geyikli
Alexandria Troas 3,5 km
An ancient city dating back to the age of Alexander the Great — arches, theatre and baths just minutes from the guesthouse.
The Area
The area & places to visit
Dalyan is a small seaside village next to Geyikli, in the Ezine district of Çanakkale — 58 km from Çanakkale city and 22 km from Ezine. Its mild climate makes both summer and spring a feast for the eyes.
Where we are
A hidden corner of the North Aegean
The guesthouse is close to the ancient cities of Troy and Alexandria Troas and the temples of Apollo Smintheus and Athena. Just 1 km from the village, the ruin locals call "Saray" (the Palace) has two storeys above ground and five below.
Nearby beaches we love include Yeniköy Harbour, Kumburun, the Geyikli ferry pier, Ayazma beach on Bozcaada, Odunluk pier, Dalyan village beach, Altın Güneş, Akliman and Kadırga Bay.
Distances from the guesthouse
Places to visit
Bozcaada By ferry
About 30 minutes by ferry from Geyikli. Parking on the island is scarce, so we suggest leaving your car on the mainland — minibuses run to the beaches.
Yeniköy Harbour 28 km
A quiet fishing harbour, reached through the village of Üvecik.
Akliman Beach 38 km
Famous for its clear water and sand. Don't miss the fish restaurants of Babakale, 9 km further on.
Behramkale (Assos) 65 km
Ancient Assos and its Temple of Athena, with sweeping views over the Aegean.
Kadırga Bay 70 km
Take the Ezine–Ayvacık road; the alternative is very winding. Combine it with a visit to Behramkale.
Our tips
Local tips
- Make the most of the local fresh fish, olives and olive oil, sheep's cheese, butter and yoghurt. If you come in May, it is milk-fed kid season.
- Leave your car on the mainland when visiting Bozcaada; minibuses run regularly to the island's beaches.
- The Kestanbol hot springs are a perfect escape on cool spring and autumn days.
Then and now
Odunluk pier and Bozcaada
In the early days the only way to Bozcaada was from Odunluk pier in Dalyan village, aboard small island fishing boats that could carry just two or three cars. Later a landing craft that had served in the Gallipoli campaign began a regular ferry service.
Because Odunluk was too exposed to strong winds, it was eventually closed and the new Geyikli Yükyeri pier, built in the late 1990s, took over. Leaving Yükyeri pier, pass the tea gardens and take the first road on the right; after 4–5 km through holiday homes and olive groves you will reach the square at Odunluk pier.
