About Killik Koyu

Killik Koyu is a small bay next to Bademli Bay, about 10 kilometres from Dikili town centre. Visit İzmir describes white sand and turquoise water. The bay takes its name from the natural clay (kil) found here. Do not be surprised to see people walking along the shore coated in grey-green mud: many visitors spread the clay over their faces and bodies as a skin treatment. There are private businesses on the bay that charge for their services, but the narrow strip of shore directly in front of them is open to the public free of charge. From Killik it is about a five-minute walk along a sloping path to the quieter Küçük Zindancık cove.
