Konya Becomes the Center of Water Sports

The first step has been taken to make Beyşehir district of Konya, which hosts Turkey's largest freshwater lake, the center of water sports.

 

A contract has been signed for the preliminary feasibility project of the water sports center within the scope of eco-tourism, prepared by the Beyşehir Culture and Tourism Association in collaboration with the Mevlana Development Agency (MEVKA), under the code TR52/23/TD0021.

 

 

Mustafa Büyükkafalı, the President of the Beyşehir Culture and Tourism Association, made a statement after the signing of the agreements during a program held in Konya. He mentioned that with the implementation of the project, they will initiate efforts for water sports for the first time in Konya under the framework of eco-tourism. He stated, "We have taken the first step towards establishing an educational center for sailing sports, particularly on Beyşehir Lake. Hopefully, there will be more to come. I thank MEVKA for their support in this regard. Let it be auspicious for our region."
