Island icon Sehir Adalari [[Gulf of Gokova#Sehir Adalari|Sehir Adalari]] 36°59.7′N, 28°12.5′E

Sehir Adalari or Shehir Oghlan or Snake and Castle Island was known in antiquity as Kedreai. The beach on west of the island was known as "Cleopatra's Beach." It was believed to have been made with sand transported from Egypt by Mark Anthony especially for Cleopatra. Today there are many ruins and walking around the island is a pleasure.

Anchor on the E side in 5-10 m in the middle of the bay or in shallower water and take a line ashore. The bottom is sand and weed and provides good holding especially if you avoid the weed.

Visiting the island is controlled by ticket and you are not allowed to visit at night.

There is a restaurant and snack bar ashore.

Danger: Watch out for the submerged ancient mole in the NE point.

Warning: The wind direction is liable to change in the evening from N to NE.

Çökertme also known as Fesiliyen Koyu or Vasilika. It is an attractive cove but it is subject to strong gusts. Anchor in 2-5 m. The bottom is sand and weed and there could be a problem with holding, so take a line ashore. Alternatively, pick up a laid mooring on one of the three restaurant pontoons. With an onshore southerly it is best to anchor off in the western cove, as big incoming waves make the restaurant pontoons very uncomfortable.

When we were there there was a very basic eatery presided by the colorful "Captain Ibrahim" who looked straight out of pirate movie.
