Despot Koyu İncir Ağacı is a secluded beach located within the district of Gelibolu in Çanakkale, Turkey, roughly 15-20 kilometers away from the nearest village center. It is nestled within the boundaries of Yeniköy Village and is known for its picturesque natural beauty.
The beach is unique in that instead of fine sand, it is covered in tiny pebbles, which many visitors find charming. It also houses a fresh water well, although the water is not suitable for drinking or making tea. Another unique feature of the beach is the Sarızwind, a local wind phenomenon.
The beach is devoid of commercial amenities such as markets, making it an ideal destination for those looking for a more natural and less crowded beach experience. Visitors to Despot Koyu İncir Ağacı are advised to bring their own supplies, including umbrellas, as finding shade under the trees can be a challenge.
Reaching the beach can be somewhat difficult as it is not marked on most maps. The access route is a forest road which can be rough and may not be suitable for all vehicles. Moreover, due to the risk of forest fires, the road leading to the beach is occasionally closed by the governor's decision. Despite these challenges, the natural beauty and tranquility of Despot Koyu İncir Ağacı make it a worthwhile destination for those seeking a peaceful beach getaway.
