Akçakoca, Coastal district in Düzce Province, Turkey.

Akçakoca extends along the Black Sea coastline with beaches, offering views of both the water and surrounding forested hills.

The region transformed from an ancient settlement known as Diospolis to its current name in 1934, honoring the Turkish chieftain who conquered it.

Local fishermen maintain traditional fishing methods, bringing fresh catches daily to the markets and restaurants throughout the district.

The district connects to Istanbul and Ankara through regular bus services, making it accessible for both domestic and international visitors.

A modern mosque supported by 160 concrete poles stands in the district, following architectural elements similar to Pakistan's Faisal Mosque.
