Fevikoy Beach, Cesme
The verdict
- Best for: Swimmers and families who want a golden sand cove with calm, shallow, clear water and a serviced beach club day, in the sheltered south of the Cesme peninsula.
- Best spot: A lounger at a cove beach club such as Fly-Inn for shade and food, with the calmest, emptiest swim in the morning before the day and the light breeze build.
- Know this: Fevikoy is small and mostly run as beach club sand, so it is about comfort and an easy paddle, not wind or surf, and it fills fast on peak summer weekends.

Fevikoy is one of the small golden sand coves that string along the Altinkum corner on the south of the Cesme peninsula, and it knows exactly what it is. This is calm, shallow, clear water over soft gold sand, given over mostly to beach clubs, so it is built for an easy swim, a lounger and a long lunch rather than anything wild. If that is the day you want, it delivers it well, and the sheltered water makes it a kind, gentle choice for families.
As a salt and swell person I will be straight with you. There is no surf here and only a light breeze, so if you came to the peninsula to ride, this is the wrong cove. Cesme keeps its real wind over at Alacati and the exposed western beaches such as Pirlanta, where the kitesurfers and windsurfers gather. Fevikoy trades the action for calm, which is the right swap if your plan is to float, paddle a board on flat water and let the children splash in the shallows.
The honest trade against the bigger Cesme beaches is size and cost. Fevikoy is small and largely paid beach club sand, so it fills fast on peak July and August weekends and you pay for a lounger rather than rolling out a free towel as you might on a stretch of Ilica. Come early for the calmest, emptiest water, travel in June or September for space and value, and treat the busy midday peak as lunch on a lounger rather than a quiet solo swim.
Clubs on this beach
Fevikoy is a beach club cove rather than an open public beach, so the serviced setups are the day here. We describe them factually and route enquiries through our directory, never inventing fees, minimum spends or amenities.
Fly-Inn Beach Club
The best known setup on the Fevikoy sand, a relaxed Altinkum beach club with loungers, umbrellas, food and drink and seasonal watersports beside the calm shallow water. Verdict: an easy, comfortable cove day for families and couples, with charges and any minimum spend set by the venue and to be confirmed.
Fevikoy sits in the Altinkum area on the south side of the Cesme peninsula, a short drive from Cesme town by car or taxi, with seasonal minibus links and parking near the beach clubs. It is around an hour from Izmir Adnan Menderes airport along the fast motorway, so it is an easy add on to a peninsula trip. The cove is small, so in peak summer it pays to arrive early to claim a spot and a lounger.
Bring sun cover and some cash for loungers and parking, and plan around the light afternoon breeze that can build in summer, gentler here than out at the exposed western tip. The calmest, quietest swims come in the morning, the shallow water warms quickly close to shore, and a hat and water matter under the strong Aegean sun.

Common questions
Is Fevikoy beach in Cesme worth it?
Yes, if you want an easy golden sand cove with calm shallow water and a beach club day rather than wind or surf. Fevikoy sits in the sheltered Altinkum area on the south of the peninsula, so the swimming is gentle and the vibe is relaxed. It is small and largely run as beach club sand, so come for comfort and a clear paddle, not for a wild empty shore.
Is Fevikoy beach sandy?
Yes. Fevikoy lies in the Altinkum area, whose name means golden sand, so the beach is fine, soft and pale gold, gentle underfoot and easy for children. It shelves slowly into clear, shallow water, which is a big part of why these south coast coves suit families and unhurried swimmers rather than wave seekers.
Can you surf or windsurf at Fevikoy?
Not really. Fevikoy is a sheltered, calm cove, so it is poor for surf and only lightly breezy for wind. If you want the wind, the Cesme peninsula keeps its kitesurfing and windsurfing over at Alacati and the exposed western beaches such as Pirlanta. Fevikoy is the place to swim and relax, not to chase a breeze.
Is Fevikoy beach free?
Mostly it runs as beach club sand, with loungers, umbrellas and food from venues such as Fly-Inn on the cove, so a serviced day has a cost we mark as to be confirmed. Any open public sand and the entry terms change by season and operator, so check locally before you go and budget for a lounger if you want the comfort.
How do you get to Fevikoy beach in Cesme?
Fevikoy sits in the Altinkum area on the south side of the Cesme peninsula, a short drive from Cesme town by car or taxi, with seasonal minibus links and parking near the beach clubs.
