Milas, ancient Mylasa, is an ancient city and the seat of the district of the same name in Mugla Provthe airport than Bodrum itself, with many late arrival passengers of the high season increasingly opting to stay in Milas rather than in Bodrum where accommodation is likely to be difficult to find. Milas district covers a total area of 2167 km2 and this area follows a total coastline length of 150 km, both to the north-west in the Gulf of Gulluk and to the south along the Gulf of Gokova, and to these should be added the shores of Lake Bafa in the north divided between the district area of Milas and that of Aydin district of Soke.
