Gündoğan
Rising bay between Türkbükü and Yalıkavak — square kahvaltı, harbour fish
Gündoğan is the rising cove between Türkbükü and Yalıkavak — the address summer-house Istanbul rents when Türkbükü starts to feel rehearsed and Yalıkavak too loud, growing slowly without the marina trade. The eating runs on a working fishing harbour and a tight cluster of family rooms on the village square: Akbalık is the fish reference for the bay, Quzine has been the village breakfast since 1999, and a handful of meze tables hold their own without trying to be Maçakızı. The shift is two-part: kahvaltı on the square mid-morning, fish on the harbour at dusk. Reservation pressure is moderate and rising — book a few days ahead in season, walk-in workable on weekdays. Skip anyone here pitching beach-club spectacle; the village reads it as bad taste.
