This cove has several names — Boklu yalak ('muddy pit' in local slang), Muzlu yalak (banana pit), Merdivenli köy (the cove with stairs) and Blue Lagoon. This is where you understand why Gazipasa is called a quiet paradise. A place of unreal beauty — when you see it for the first time, you can't believe it's somewhere in Gazipasa.
How to get there
By car ~10 minutes from the center, then descent by stairs to the water.
