Hello friends.
Today we are in Thrace in the Marmara Region.
Have fun watching.
With its natural beauties, delicious food and friendly people, Thrace is one of the popular routes for those who want to get away from Istanbul recently.
There are many beautiful villages and towns in the region, which has coasts to both the Marmara and the Black Sea.
One of them is Kıyıköy, a fishing town where green and blue come together.
Moreover, it is two hours away from Istanbul.
So, where to swim and where to visit in Kiyikoy at the end of a weekend?
Here is the Kiyikoy travel guide.
Kiyikoy is a cute fishing town in the Vize district of Kırklareli.
As you approach the paradise town on the Black Sea coast, the emerald green forest surrounds you and the turquoise sea that appears on the horizon invites you with all its charm.
Kiyikoy is a town built on cliffs where Kazandere and Pabucdere flow into the sea.
The beach, which is formed at the junction of the creeks and the sea, is a favorite of holidaymakers.
With the small fishing shelters and boats inside the breakwater, it reminds Sile when viewed from above.
The view of the streams flowing through the greenery and merging with the sea fascinates those who see it.
There are very cute cafes and restaurants in the town, which overlook the sea or where you can taste fish by the beach.
The main livelihood of the town is fishing, so it is possible to find the freshest fish of the Black Sea here.
Turbot fish is very famous.
Since Kiyikoy has just begun to develop in tourism, it is difficult to find luxury hotels for accommodation, but there are many hostel opportunities.
When there is no room in hostels during busy periods, locals also rent their houses.
My preference and suggestion is tent accommodation.
There are many options for camping around Kiyikoy, one of them is the part reserved for tents next to the beach.
It is a very good choice for those who are looking for a sea holiday.
Sea, sand and sun paradise.
In addition to the beach in the town, Selvez, Poliçe and Panayır İskelesi Bays, which you can visit in the immediate vicinity, are other alternatives where you can enjoy nature.
The sea and beach of Kıyıköy and its surroundings are quite beautiful, but do not forget to pay attention to the intense waves of the Black Sea.
The history of the town actually dates back to ancient times.
Remains of the city walls and the castle are from the 6th century.
The center of the town is entered by passing through this historical fortification gate.
Another important historical building in the town is the Aya Nikola Monastery, which is thought to have been built at the same time as the castle.
Located 700 meters from Kıyıköy, the building is considered one of the best examples of rock monasteries.
Monastery is one of the places you must visit when you come to Kiyikoy.
Extensive information about the monastery is available on our channel. We recommend that you watch.
There is also a cave near the town.
You can also add the cave where red and brown butterflies live intensely to your list.
Another activity you can do in the town is to rent a boat, canoe or sea bike on Kazandere and Pabuçdere, which meet on the beach.
It is certain that it will be a very enjoyable activity for photography enthusiasts and those seeking serenity.
Kiyikoy awaits you with its natural and historical beauties.
The town where you can go even for a day trip when you are overwhelmed by the density of the city is right next to Istanbul.
That's it from the charming Kiyikoy of the Kırklareli Vize district.
Goodbye for now, see you in new places.
