Sailing in Turkey also allows visitors to experience the hospitality of the people in the coastal villages and towns. The tempered winds blowing from west and northwest make the long summers ideal for yachting, and seem to encourage an appreciation of nature. From some of the turquoise coast's unspoilt and sheltered bays you can see mountain peaks rising to almost 3000 meters above sea level.

Tekmen is a town in Bozyazı district of Mersin Province. Tekmen is a Mediterranean coastal town. Toros mountains are just north of the town and the coastal plain of the town is a narrow strip between the sea and the mountains. Mountains are covered by macquis groves and red pine forests.

Tekmen is a part of Bozyazı district which in turn is a part of Mersin Province. It is 5 km (3.1 mi) east of Bozyazı and 196 km (122 mi) west of Mersin on the Mersin Antalya highway D.400.

The residents of Tekmen are members of a Turkmen tribe named Teke, who is known to be the founder of Teke Beylik in southeastern Anatolia in the 13th and 14th centuries. They were originally nomads on the Toros mountains. In 1989, Tekmen was declared township.

In Tekmen, greenhouse agriculture and animal husbandry are two important economic activities. However, animal husbandry is now on the decline. The most important crops are vegetables, citrus, strawberries, bananas and peanuts.
