Spatial Evaluations of a Coastline and Its Close Environment: The Settlement of Dalyan, Muğla, Turkey
Dalyan, a Mediterranean coastal settlement in southwestern Turkey, is attracting a great deal of attention due to its natural and cultural value and tourism potential. The aim of this study was to evaluate the Dalyan coastline and its environment as a public open space to find out whether the space meets the needs of users. Responses to a questionnaire were used to propose solutions for developing the area’s performance and identity.
First, the area was divided into six sub-spaces that were evaluated in terms of activities and uses, comfort and image, access and linkage, sociability and sensorial aspects and meeting the users’ expectations. Second, a face-to-face interview was conducted with 255 users. A visual analysis was also conducted. As a result of this research, various sectors of the society were brought together. This research illustrated that the coastline is the most popular sector of Dalyan, and if the suggested development takes place, it would provide an important social environment as well as an open space for community use due to the enhancement of the area’s visual quality and liveability.
