Gündoğan is the peninsula's quietest north-coast village and Akbalık is its anchor — a waterfront fish room run by Ali Akbalık himself, with a meticulous house position on freshness (no frozen mussels, even on request). The mezes lean warm and inventive, the fish pie is the signature, and the room fills with summer-house Istanbul rather than transient yacht traffic.

Editor's Tip

Order the fish pie without negotiation. Sit on the seaward side; ask Ali what came in that morning. Reservations essential on August weekends.
