Black Island (Kara Ada)

According to myth, Cleopatra once visited the verdant Black Island, or Kara Ada, at the mouth of Bodrum Harbor. Today, this lush island is a favorite stop for boat cruises. Visitors can soak in its natural hot springs and cover themselves in mineral-rich mud, believed to be a beauty secret of the ancient Egyptian queen. The island’s serene setting and therapeutic offerings make it a unique and relaxing destination.
