Cozy, small island in Aegean Sea. One of the pearl of Turkey. If you are looking for quite, calm place, this is Bozcada aka Tenedos island that you are looking for. Pros; Wines, Grape Juices, Cheese, Oil olives are homemade for this little island they are really good with that. Probably one the cheapest places if you compares it other tourisitic areas. You can reach everything altough its an island. Its small island that from east to west its 1 hour to walk. ( 7 km ) Sea is brilliant! Shiny! One of the best in Turkey if you compare looks. Günbatımı is really good place, you should see there if you are at the island. MadamElenies Breakfast was best so i really advise you that, go there and ask for breakfast. Habbele beach is one of they cozy place to swim. We went there daily basis and we were their visitors about 7-8 hours for a day. So this place also can cook and make you a perfect coffee with their Gloria Jeans experience. Their management and team are cool and always friendly. Cons; Sea is cold… Not just cold, freezing tho. But you are get used to it if you really wanna swim in that shiny water! Ah one more thing… Sea Urchins, we went to swim other than Hebbele beach and we encountered them. They are really hurt your feet or leg so becareful with them. So if you don’t wanna pay 50$ daily to Habbele beach ( 4 people with eating and swimming ), you really need to becareful with those little guys, probably island was their mating zone lol.

we were near by and decided to take additional two days off and made a reservation at one of the butik hotel in the center of the island. The entire island is full of like minded peaceful people freely doing things they like doing unlike the rest of the country. Sea is amazingly clear a bit cool there are very nice beaches though they get a bit crowded best if you have a car to find your own cove. The town is full of cafes and restaurants serving any taste and desire with common attitude: friendly this island if in the neighborhood must be on the list. the wines they sell no longer from the grapes they grow on the island. grapes come from the Turkey. there are excellent selection all reasonably priced.

May be the best place in Bozcaada to spend a pleasant relax moment to drink a glass of local wine and listening good music. Thank-you for the Owner’s welcome. We come back ! Frank Sûrement le meilleur endroit à Bozcaada pour passer un agréable moment de détente en sirotant un verre de vin local et en écoutant de la bonne musique. Merci pour la qualité de l’accueil de la propriétaire. On reviendra ! Frank

Before going to Bozcaada you should consider waiting at the ferry que in your car for 3 or 4 hours! But once you arrive the island you will see that it worths! You can experience wine tasting, fish and rakı, mezeses, perfect cookies. We were planing to stay for a night but we stayed for tree night, insted. You can drive or ride around the island and swim whereever you like. Go and experience the sunset at “ günbatımı”. You can take your wine and drink while waching the beautiful view.

A short ride with the ferry. be there ahead, the line is long and many cars have to wait for the next ferry during high season. you can easily spend the entire day just visiting the town and the island, car needed. There are beautiful beaches. Stay longer if you have time. The ferry ticket wont expire, you only pay once getting to the island.

Thomson Sprit Cruise....Ancient Wonders. Bozcaada was one of the places we visited, what a wonderful place it's Turkish but years ago it was Greek. We wondered around the port and the streets it's just so beautiful, lovely friendly people. We got on the bus and went to the other side of the island another WOW, the beach was beautiful you could have been in the Caribbean, Bozcaada is a hidden gem the Thomson Spirit is the only cruise ship to go there, visit soon you won't be disappointed :-)

we were the first cruise ship to ever visit the island and wow worth the visit.Stunning castle although we did not have time to visit it. village was very quaint and not many tourists.Nice restaurants and a few shops. Took a ferry to Troy well worth the visit would go back here again. By the way very friendly people.

If you are staying in Canakkale, you may wish to check out the nearby island of Bozcaada, formerly Tenedos. You can catch a mini-bus from the town of Canakkale for approximately one hour, followed by a ferry across to the island. The return bus trip is about $10 and the return ferry trip is another $6. Although the island has a permanent population of only 2-3000, the number expands considerably in the summer. There are plenty of places to wine and dine on the island. They have lots of interesting shops and stalls, beaches and good sunsets. It has a great atmosphere and is a nice place to spend a relaxing few days.

We visited Bozcaada on our cruise as it was the ships maiden visit to this port. It is a lovely island with lots of character around the main town, which is dominated by a dramatic castle overlooking the port. Restaurants and cafes line the main streets and around the fishing harbour. The rest of the small town warrants exploration with quiet streets with many small guest houses and hotels tucked away off the main areas. Local tour buses were available to see the remainder of this compact island but we were happy just ambling around the harbour castle and streets a couple of local wineries are in the town and are open to visit.

We were on the first cruise ship to port in Bozcaada last week. It has not cottoned on to tourists yet. But its pretty enough .BUT you must visit the museum its worth the visit to the island itself
