Description

Kâmil Abduş Lake, Tuzla Lake or Fish Lake is a lagoon that is separated from the sea by natural and artificial obstacles. The lake was renatured after it dried up completely in 2001. The water cycle of the lake was restored by opening up the connection with the sea. With the artificial islets created, a place to stay for the breeding and accommodation of birds was provided.
