A small island off the İmamuşağı shore of Silifke, opposite Boğsak Cove. Its calm sea and clear visibility make it one of the sites the region's dive schools use for training dives; it suits those diving for the first time.
Underwater cultural assets are covered by Turkish Law no. 2863. Diving at these sites is done only through authorized dive centers and in line with the published rules.
Distances are in a straight line and some coordinates are approximate; the route by boat is longer.
