Giresun

Over Giresun

Hazelnut country, Giresun is the only province with an island in the Black Sea (Giresun Island), itself the subject of legends. The Kümbet, Bektaş and Kulakkaya plateaus and the deep-blue Mavi (Blue) Lake near Bulancak are prime spots for nature camps, while the historic castle offers a unique view over the city. Fresh hazelnuts and Black Sea cuisine are local flavours.
