Burgaz preserves evidence of an early port settlement close to town, at a separate site from Knidos on Cape Tekir.
Burgaz lies north-east of central Datça. Excavations study houses, streets and harbour remains that reveal the layout of the early settlement. Pin it separately from the ruins of Knidos at the western tip.
Access can change with research and conservation work. Ask the tourism office which areas are open to visitors and follow signs and boundaries at the site.
