Çamlık koyu

Camlik Bay can be found on the furthest side of the beach leading to Demre harbour. It is a beautiful, relaxed bay with untouched nature and an abundance of pine trees.The soft sound of twittering birds is also strongly noticeable, due to the location of the bay where it is protected from the emerging wind that often blows in from the west.The white sandy seabed creates an effect that turns the water into a crystal-clear and turquoise delight. So don’t forget to bring your snorkel gear, because it is a truly wonderful bay to explore underwater.
