Gundogan, meaning “Sunrise” is located on the South West corner of the peninsula.
Known in ancient times as Farilya, it has always been an important town for fishing, sponge diving, olive and tangerine growing. Travelling from Bodrum past magnificent rock formations and mountain peaks covered in pine forests, brings you to the secluded village of Gundogan. A few small hotels line the beach and the intimate seaside restaurants serve the fresh catches of the day. Gundogan offers a fresh sea breeze making it popular with water-sport enthusiasts and walkers. This small village is still relatively unspoiled despite the new developments dotted around the surrounding hillsides. Caves, Wind mills, Cisterns, Rock Cut Monasteries bear witness to the great past of Gundogan.
