Gümüşlük stands on the site of the ancient Carian city of Myndus whose seafront sections slid into the sea in some long-forgotten earthquake. Today these barely submerged remains are a magnet for snorkellers and underwater photographers. The land site is yet to be fully excavated, but traces of antiquity can be spotted in empty fields, sounding an evocative echo of a distant age.
"Rabbit Island" (Turkish: Tavşan Adası), situated in the middle of the bay and accessible by a partially sunken causeway, offers a magnificent panorama.
