dc.description.abstractThe Canakkale Wars Gallipoli Historical Area (CWGHA) has national and international importance due to its historical and natural value. The area is rich in terms of its biodiversity, untouched coasts, archaeological sites, wetland. It has value as important natural and cultural resource potential for any type of tourism activity in the region. The aim of this study is to find out the potential of ecotourism, which might be one of the important means of conserving the natural and cultural resource assets of the CWGHA. For this purpose, the method of Ecotourism Opportunity Spectrum (ECOS) was applied to question the potential for ecotourism in rural areas. In this context, the potential of ecotourism and sustainable development of the area was questioned. According to the research results, there are not any residential unit which has the ‘High’ ecotourism opportunities. The five of the settlements (Kilitbahir, Alcitepe, Sed-dulbahir, Buyuk Anafarta, Kucuk Anafarta) were determined in terms of ecotourism opportunities ‘Moderate’ grade, while Behramli, Kocadere and Bigali villages were ‘Low’ grade. These eight villages have an average potential for ecotourism activities. However, it is very clear that this potential can be applied considering the correct planning decisions and the balance of use – conservation. Various issues relating to the current state of the settlers were discussed. Also several recommendations were made based on protection to increase the ecotourism potential of these villages. © 2016, Scibulcom Ltd. All rights reserved.
