Balıklıova




Balıklıova is a small village between Urla and Karaburun, in the Urla district, İzmir Province of Turkey. The meaning of the word Balıklıova comes from a “valley full of fish”. Particularly during summer time Balıklıova has so many inhabitants.

As you travel down the coast road from Ilica, Cesme towards Izmir you come across a T Junction. To the left is the road to Karaburun and to the right the road to Izmir. If you missed it look behind you and on the hillside you will see an abandoned old Greek village. 


Balıklıova, Türkiye’nin İzmir iline bağlı Urla ilçesinde, Urla ile Karaburun arasında yer alan küçük bir köydür. Balıklıova ismi, “balık dolu vadi” anlamına gelir. Özellikle yaz aylarında Balıklıova oldukça kalabalık olur.

Ilıca, Çeşme’den İzmir yönüne sahil yolundan ilerlerken bir T kavşağına ulaşırsınız. Sola giderseniz Karaburun yoluna, sağa dönerseniz İzmir yoluna girersiniz. Eğer kavşağı kaçırırsanız arkanıza bakın; yamaçta terk edilmiş eski bir Rum köyünü göreceksiniz.
