Fimi Party Island

Fimi Island is a beach club set in Incirli Bay on the shore of Gocek Island, reached by a short shuttle boat from the marinas around Gocek. Since opening, the club has built a reputation as one of the liveliest day-out venues on this part of the coast, pairing a sandy beach and shaded loungers with a full-service restaurant and bar set among the pines just above the waterline.

The setting is deliberately low-key by day, with sunbeds, cabanas and a quiet stretch of shoreline, before shifting into a livelier mood in the afternoon, when resident DJs take over and the club's seasonal Isle of Escape Festival draws a crowd from across the region for an evening of music by the water. The comparison to Ibiza-style beach clubs is one locals make often, and it captures the mix of relaxed daytime swimming with a more energetic evening scene.

For anyone sailing the Gocek gulf, the island's short crossing time makes it an easy addition to a day's itinerary, and it has become a classic stop on a Gocek blue cruise itinerary for guests who want a few hours ashore between swimming stops.
