Cape Tisan

Cape Tisan is a headland on the Mediterranean Sea coast of Mersin Province, Turkey.

The cape is near to Yeşilovacık town in Silifke district of Mersin Province.

The cape is actually the southernmost point of a circular spit of roughly 2.5 kilometres (1.6 mi) diameter connected to the mainland by an isthmus.

The spit is famous for being home to Aphrodisias of Cilicia and the isthmus has a pair of bays one in each side.

Both bays are popular beaches and in fact the cape is named after a site of marine resorts just north of the isthmus.
