On a blue cruise through the bays of Göcek, Bedri Rahmi Bay at Taşyaka is one of the most-loved stops. It takes its name from the fish figure painted onto the rock that frames the cove — created decades ago by the celebrated Turkish painter Bedri Rahmi Eyüboğlu. The fish still greets boats today, giving the bay a calm, nostalgic character.
What makes Bedri Rahmi Bay special?
Shaded and sheltered, it's ideal for an afternoon anchor and a swim. The water is clear enough to see the bottom, and pine and olive trees run down to the shore. Just above the beach are ancient Lycian rock tombs — history and nature in a single frame.
Who is it for?
Guests after quiet and a little story. It's a lovely spot for a swim stop, lunch and photographs. On NateWhite we don't fix the route in advance; our captain, Birkan, slots Bedri Rahmi into your day at the best hour for the wind and sea.
How do you get there?
It's a short cruise from Skopea Marina. Visit on a daily cruise or during a multi-day charter aboard NateWhite. Just talk to us directly for routing and prices.
