Espiye, Administrative district in Giresun Province, Turkey
Located between Yağlıdere and Gelevara rivers, Espiye features coastal terrain along the Black Sea with hilly landscapes rising from the shoreline.
The region maintained copper mining activities during the 1st century AD when it was part of the Roman Empire before transitioning to Byzantine control.
The Chepni Turks established deep roots in Espiye during the Ottoman period, influencing local traditions and maintaining strong horsemanship practices.
Espiye provides accommodations through multiple hotels, including My Sunset Beach Hotel, with direct access to the Black Sea coastline.
The name Espiye derives from Persian and Turkish elements, potentially referring to horse stables near water or land dedicated to horses.
