Tömük

Tömük is a neighbourhood in the municipality and district of Erdemli, Mersin Province, Turkey.

Although the midtown is 3 km (1.9 mi) north of the seaside, newer quarters of the town are founded at the seaside just to the south of the main highway D.400 connecting Mersin to the west.

The earliest settlers were the members of a Turkmen tribe of a certain Elvan Bey in the 14th century.

But, early in the last years of the 18th century, people from other villages began to populate Tömük.

Services for summer houses in the coastal band also contribute to the economy of the town.
