 Bogaz is a beautiful, picturesque, Mediterranean, coastal fishing village situated on the southern edge of the Karpas Peninsula, with half a dozen fish restaurants located around its harbour. It has one of the finest examples of Medieval Architecture in the Eastern Mediterranean , and has retained its Captivating eastern mysticism and irresistable appeal.
Bogaz also has some pleasant patches of Sandy beach and only two large and reliable hotels in the area. The constant flow of customers to the village's restaurants also makes it an invaluable place to find a lift or taxi.
About 5 km east up the coast, is the foundations of Strongylos Castle , a Byzantine watchtower enlarged by the Knights Templar in the 12th century.
Bogaz, only a few km north of Iskele and about 20 km northeast of Famagusta on the edge of Karpaz, is very well sited as a base to explore the region.
