Bozcaada, having distinctive landscape characteristics and being mostly within historical and natural protection sites, has been under heavy pressure of tourism and recreational oriented land use demands that contradict with its identical activities such as, traditional agriculture and winemaking. In this respect, in our study, a landscape planning method has been developed for the land with distinctive landscape characteristics and executed in the case of Bozcaada in order to materialize some guidelines for existing and/or future land use demands and priorities towards achieving ecologically sustainable spatial uses. During the process, the island was divided into 57 squares in dimensions of 1km x 1km in order to be able to better investigate the island. As a result of the applied method; where as protection as a land use type takes the first priority 27 squares; tourism-recreation, agriculture, settlements receive the highest scores totally in 16, 12 and 2 squares respectively. Based upon these results, further evaluations and solutions have been formulated especially for the land uses distinguished with the problematic potentials on the island.
