Where is it ?
Mehmetcik
The village of Mehmetcik sits high on a hillside in the Karpaz Pennisular and has the most spectacular views of the picturesque valley below with the sea in the distance. Mehmetcik which translated means ‘little solder’ is a traditional Turkish village and is famous for growing grapes which villagers export to other areas of Cyprus. Its well-known grape festival is during the summer and people travel from the surrounding area to spend time enjoying this festival. The Village and its inhabitants are also well-known Zivania and Sucuk producers a traditional sweet made from grapes. Mehmetcik is a good sized friendly village with a host of shops and all the amenities day to day living. The local council run beach is at Bafra just a few minutes’ drive down the hill, you will need to arrive early at the weekends as this gently sloping beautiful golden sandy beach is very popular with locals and tourists alike.
The village is well positioned for access to attractions such as the Karpaz Gate Marina which is an easy drive away, and new road links bring all destinations including Kyrenia within easy reach. A new golf course is under construction at Bafra which will add further to property values in the area.
