Swimming season at Dana Island (Silifke)

An island about 2.5 km offshore, measuring 3x1.5 km. It has a settlement history stretching from the Late Bronze Age to the Late Roman period; with 276 ancient slipways (boat maintenance/hauling sites), it's described as an important center for ancient maritime history. Remains such as a water cistern, a bathhouse, and a church are found on it.

When to go June-September.
Who it suits For those seeking a diving/visiting experience intertwined with historical remains — it appeals more to those interested in archaeology than to those looking for an ordinary swimming spot.
