Its story
Ekinlik, formerly called Koutalis, is a small island between Avşa and Marmara Island and is a neighborhood of the Marmara district. Inhabited by a Greek (Rum) population until 1923, the island received new settlers with the population exchange. Only about a hundred people live on the island, making their living from fishing. Away from mass tourism, it is a stop reachable by boat for those who want to spend a quiet day.
