About Ortakent
Yahşi, the coastal part of Ortakent, offers a wide beach stretching for kilometres and a gently deepening sea, making it a safe swimming area for families with children. Cafés, beach clubs and fish restaurants line the shore, keeping a calm pace even in high season.
In the centre of the district stands the 16th-century Mustafa Pasha Tower, one of the best-preserved examples of the fortified tower houses of the Bodrum peninsula. In the inner neighbourhoods, century-old tangerine and orange groves, stone-walled lanes and traditional Aegean architecture are still very much alive.
Ortakent is the gateway to the nearby Kargı (Camel Beach) and Bağla bays, known for fine sand and clear water. Sitting on the main road between Bodrum centre and Turgutreis, it is also evenly placed for trips to either end of the peninsula.
