NAME

The alluvial plain, also named Gokova, which leads at the Gulf's end is the location of the towns of Akyaka and Gokova, with only a few klicks severalizing the two and these settlements saw their populations increase well in recent years, with Akyaka especially becoming a coming up centre of touristry. The municipalities of both these towns were made of recent date and they depend the townspeople of Ula, situated inland and given through Sakar Pass at an height of 670 beats, climbed up from low lying in a short distance and proffering an impressive panorama of the Gulf as a result.
