Taking a convenient bearing off this island will guide you as you enter the harbor while by maneuvering between the island and the mainland. You can moor your vessel in the clear waters next to the NW shoreline of Palamutbükü.

Late February - March almond trees are the first to bloom and April - May is "baby almond" delicacy time "çağla" in Turkish, which is carefully collected by hand to thin the over burdened branches/clusters. It has to be eaten fresh, best direct from the tree and usually with a bit of salt and also is great with tequila. In August and September you can collect your own almonds and crack them to take along.
Of course there is also figs (August), grenade apples (September - October), oranges/citrus fruits (most of the time, especially lemons), water & sweet melons / cantaloupes all summer, and many other local Mediterranean delicacies, all fresh direct from the orchards.
ANCIENT CITY KNIDOS
Ancient city of Knidos is located on the tip of the peninsula (about 30 km west of Datça, near the village of Yazıköy). Although not impressive as it used to be at ancient times, this city had the famous naked Aphrodite, chipped by Praksiteles of Athens. Long missing (only its pedestal is still on the site), this statue once generated one of the earliest forms of tourism: People from all over Mediterranean world flocked to Knidos with the only intention of seeing it.
There are two amphitheatres in Knidos, one of the facing Aegean Sea, while other has a view of Mediterranean proper. Datça is the original site of the city of Knidos, which was relocated in 540 B.C. during the Persian invasions. Old Knidos is located 1.5 km north of modern Datça on a hill where there is an acropolis. On the southern side are the remains of an ancient harbor.
SPECIAL SHOPPING
The town (and the peninsula) is famous for its almond trees, and a local dessert made of almond and dried figs is remarkably tasty, so you may consider buying a few packages.
