Denizköy is on the nortwest of Gulf Çandarlı and it is on the east of Maltepe Point, indenting to the north. This bay is also known as ‘’Maltepe Koyu’’.

The northwest corner of the bay affords good shelter from northerly blowing winds. There are laid moorings of the local boats. Boats can drop anchor in 2 -7 meters. The bottom is weed and sand. Prevailing westerly winds will cause swell. Northerlies blow stronger from the mountains.

There is a nice sandy beach beside summer residential sites. Teahouses and restaurants surround the bay. Some provisions can be found from the markets. You can find nice spots to stroll around.

Regular transport facilities are available to Dikili and Çandarlı.
