Simav River

The Simav (Turkish: Simav Çayı) or Susurluk River[1] (Susurluk Çayı) is a river in Anatolian Turkey.

There is a reservoir at the Çaygören Dam,[5] out of which the Simav flows past Susurluk and meets the Adirnaz.

During the classical period, the Macestus was a tributary of the Rhyndacus (the modern Adirnaz), but today the Simav forms the main course from their confluence near Karacabey down to the Sea of Marmara.

Its mouth faces the island of Imrali, a high-security prison.
