An increasingly common sight in the waters of Orikum Bay is the appearance of the Monaka seal, one of the rarest and most endangered marine mammals in the world.
In recent days, this particular species has been frequently spotted near the coast, attracting the attention of residents, tourists, and tour operators.
Its presence is considered an important indicator of the quality of the marine ecosystem in the Karaburun and Sazan areas.
The Monk Seal finds suitable conditions for food and rest in this marine park, away from the noise and heavy urban pollution.
