Gulluk Beach, Yumurtalık, Adana, Turkey
Interesting place where the main attraction is Ayas Castle ruins on its beach which the locals practically built their boat marina into. There is also a small castle on an island approx. 1500ft from the beach.
A number of beaches in Yumurtalık are also the nesting places for loggerhead sea turtle caretta caretta breed. In fact the amount of beach-front holiday property is also part of the problem, even though the sand is clean the turtles won’t lay eggs in these busy beaches with neon-lit discothèques blasting out all night.
