Gökçeada is a volcanic island and the geological formations reflect a unique natural beauty. The island has been inhabited for over 4000 years and therefore history is in evidence wherever you visit.
The island offers a wide range of beaches and pristine waters such as Kefalos, Marmaros, Kaleköy, Yıldızköy, Yuvalı, Uğurlu, Gizliköy, Kuzulimanı and Güzelceköy. All these sand and pebble beaches are reachable by car, many more by boat.
