Arap Island

It is the area located between the small Arap Island and the mainland, immediately north of Çömlek Burnu.

When entering the narrow and small cove, approach by taking the island on our starboard side. The passage on the north side of the island is shallow.

Anchor is dropped at 6-7 meters in the middle of the cove, and stern lines are taken from the beach side. If staying for a day trip and not remaining at anchor, this is the most suitable anchoring method.

Although the cove is sheltered from the meltemi, on days when the meltemi is strong, squalls descend from the cliff behind the beach. For this reason, it is more suitable to moor stern-to directly in front of the beach area.

Fishing boats generally moor stern-to on the east side of the beach. Small boats can also moor stern-to on this side. However, since the depths are low and it is a shallow area, one must be very careful.

From the cliff located among the high mountains, a faint small footpath leads to Taşlıca Village, 3.5 kilometers away.

Behind the beach consisting of pebbles, livestock herds generally brought from Taşlıca Village graze. Sparse maquis can be seen on the barren mountains.

If you want to remain at anchor in the shelter of a small island and experience a different atmosphere, this cove is a very suitable place.

The sea is very beautiful and clean.
