The first information about the history of Köyceğiz is given by the historian Herodotus, the geographer Strabo and the British archaeologist Hoskin.

In 2000 BC, new colonies were established on the coast with the Greeks and Achaeans coming to the Aegean coast by sea, and development was achieved with the colonies of the Carians in the interior. Thus, the district came to a very good position in 1000 BC. At the junction of Köyceğiz Lake with the Mediterranean, the city of Kaunos became one of the important ports and trade centers of Caria. Acropolis, famous temples and Harab and Susan castles are important historical monuments.

During the Ottoman period, the district was moved to Yüksekkum, where it is today, when Hurşit Pasha was brought to Muğla Governorship (1884). It was attacked by the enemy in the War of Independence, and at the end of 1919, Tahirağa was included in the defense of the country by establishing the Kuva-i Milliye Organization under the leadership of Mehmet Zeki Osman Ağa and Tevfik Bey. Hikmet Kıvılcımlı. As for where the name Koycegiz comes from: According to legends, Koycegiz was founded on a plain located on the area of ​​the lake. At an unknown time, the plain flooded. When those who came to the course of the disaster saw a few houses and people in the eastern part of the lake: "The whole city has sunk, only one Köyceğiz is left on the shore." they said. It is believed that there is still a sunken city under the lake today.
