Farilya cafe Belediye

Run by Bodrum Municipality, this cafe sits right on Gündoğan Bay, one of the area's Blue Flag–certified beaches — so the water quality and setting are genuinely top-tier. It opened in 2020 and has built up a loyal local following, which says a lot given how many options there are along this stretch of coast. Come for the view, stay because it's surprisingly good for a municipally run spot.
