Bodrum Küçükbük Guide – Quiet Bay, Boutique Hotels & Beach Enjoyment

About Küçükbük

Küçükbük is a calm and peaceful bay located on the northern coast of the Bodrum Peninsula, between Yalıkavak and Türkbükü. As its name suggests (meaning 'Little Bay'), it has been a refuge for those wanting to escape Bodrum's crowds for years.

The area has preserved its natural texture thanks to restrictions on high-rise construction, maintaining an authentic atmosphere with boutique hotels and stone houses.
