Mazı 

Mazı is a virgin cove just near Bodrum with extremely clean water. It has not yet been opened up to construction, has a very green character, with monumental trees and stones. You might wonder how it could have stayed untouched in comparison to other coves and yet being so close to Bodrum. The village of Mazı was opened up to tourism 25 years later that elsewhere, after its road was asphalted. The village on İnceyalı’s shore is a heaven for those wanting to sunbathe, to rest in the quiet Aegean waters and begin a seafood diet.

The village of Mazı on Gökova shores was built on higher grounds so as to not to be seen by pirates and thus avoid their attacks. The main income of the village comes from carpet making. In every house you can see a workbench at which sits a girl rapidly and enthusiastically weaving the Milas style carpets in colours of yellow, cream and brown. If you want to buy carpets you are in the right place. You can buy your carpets for reasonable prices first hand or give orders for a carpet to be made in the size you want. For those that have an interested in carpet making, we advise them to watch the wool used in the carpet being dyed using herbal roots in a boiling cauldron if you come across it.
