Söğüt Bay lies on the southwest of Karaca Ada, between Points Dede Burnu and Küçükyalı Burnu. The slopes are covered by pine forest.The large planting area behind with its stream is very productive. There are several anchorages in the bay.
The village is surrounded by pines; and since it is in Gökova Specially Protected Enviroment Area, housing is at minimum level. Besides, the historical ruins around makes Karaca a grade 1 archaeological site. Most ruins belong to Hellenistic era. Even though there is not too much remnants from ancient cities of Amnistos and Euthenna, a significant excavation is yet to be done.
Even though village is famous for maritime activities, its main sources of income are agriculture and apiculture. Local tomato, peach and strawberry taste very good. 70% of fruits sold at Marmaris market are supplied from Karaca. Greenhouse cultivation enables peasants to gather crop from these fertile lands during 12 months.
Karaca is a coast village, offering you the best fish dishes at restaurants in downtown or surrounding coves. Fishing boats serve for aficionados, organising daily fishing trips.
There are good depths and the bottom is good for anchor holding. Söğüt Bay is a winter port, providing all-round shelters. A number of boats are wintered afloat here. The water here is well known for its purity. A nice fountain is built in the place of village where Ottoman Naval Commander Piri Reis has got his water.
