Karaburun, Administrative district in western Turkey
Karaburun district spans 421 square kilometers along the Aegean coast, featuring numerous bays and beaches at the northern tip of its peninsula.
The region, originally named Mimas, transformed from an ancient Greek settlement into a Turkish administrative center, established as a municipality in 1902.
The district maintains traditional agricultural practices, with local farmers specializing in olive cultivation and organizing annual festivals dedicated to their produce.
Regular bus services connect Karaburun to Izmir city center through a 100-kilometer route that takes approximately two hours to complete.
The district exhibits a low urbanization rate of 20 percent, maintaining its rural character through agriculture and fishing rather than tourism development.
