Swimming season at Sedef Island (Adalar)

The smallest and quietest inhabited island of the Princes' Islands (roughly 1,300 by 1,100 meters). Its name comes from the way its vegetation resembles mother-of-pearl ("sedef") from a distance. It has two beaches and is known for the cleanliness of its sea; since three-quarters of the island is privately owned, the area accessible to the public is limited.

When to go June-September.
Who it suits For those who want to get completely away from Istanbul's hustle and bustle — its small size and limited access naturally keep crowds down.
