Gümüşlük is a small harbour village in the Southern Aegean region of Turkey. It's sandwiched between the larger resort strips of Turgutreis (south) and Yalıkavak (north) but there's a prohibition on developing the one-km tract separating them, and Gümüşlük doesn't itself have large resort hotels and has retained more of its character as an old fishing port. It's no longer a census district, but its population is probably similar to the 2013 count of 4046.
Excellent little hotel by the harbour, clean and friendly.
For long-distance travel see Bodrum, which has flights from Europe, and inter-city buses from Istanbul, Izmir and beyond.
