Walk around medieval Cunda Island!


Gokceada, Bozcaada and Cunda are the three beautiful islands of Turkaegean (Turkish Aegean Sea), which for centuries have welcomed visitors to the islands with the natural wealth of the Aegean Sea. The time on the island starts with a delicious Turkish breakfast in the stone room, then spends it on the charming beach, and ends the day with a pleasant dinner at the amazing traditional bistro. While there's a table full of Turkey's historic cuisine to choose from, it's the mezes (appetizers) that arrive first, followed by the island's famous seafood.

So, let's talk about Kunda Island first! The fairy-tale blue island of Kunda! This fairytale island offers a completely different scenery in every season. Turkey's "private version of Santorini", here is more quiet and romantic than the real Santorini! The white and pink houses, the blue water, and the delicate beach constitute a beautiful oil painting. You can do nothing to sunbathe on the beach, or you can stroll along the winding alleys and admire the colorful windowsill flowers.

There are really many cats and dogs on the island, most of them are very docile and can be wanked casually, of course, there are photos with cats and dogs, rest assured, they are very cooperative!

There are brightly colored tables and chairs placed outside the street restaurant, and the graffiti on the wall and the trees along the road are integrated to form a fairy tale street that looks like a true dream. One side of the sea and the other side of the street, walking in such a place is really comfortable, and it is very nice to find a coffee shop in the sun and have a drink by the sea.

Kunda Island is easily connected to the mainland by a small bridge. Taksiyarhis Church is a must-see on the island. After a restoration in 2011, the neoclassical church, built in 1873, was restored to its original beauty. Today, the building has been transformed into the Ayval k Rahmi M. Koc Museum.
