Among Göcek's bays, Hamam Bay is one of the most intriguing. Locally it's called "Cleopatra's Bath": along the shore, ancient ruins lie just beneath the surface. Swim the clear water and you seem to glide right over history.
Why is Hamam Bay special?
Legend ties the ruins to Cleopatra; the precise origin is debated, but the sight is mesmerising. Tracing the stone walls in the shallows is a fun discovery — even for guests with children.
When should you go to swim and see it?
The best hours are when the light reaches under the water. Captain Birkan adds the bay to your day at the right moment.
