Botas may not be your typical tourist destination, but this Turkish town provides an authentic glimpse into local life. Explore its historic center, a maze of narrow streets lined with traditional Ottoman houses. Relax at Botas Plaj, a picturesque beach featuring a seaside restaurant.

When hunger strikes, visit Damla Cafe Zorunlu for fresh seafood by the sea. Prefer a hearty meal on land? Local cafes serve steaming cups of çay (Turkish tea) and delicious gözleme (stuffed flatbreads). Stock up on essentials at the nearby B.M.E.C Market. As the sun sets, unwind at a çay bahçesi (tea garden) under the shade of trees, enjoying tea and the laid-back atmosphere.
