The ancient city, which has a very important place due to its location on the maritime trade routes in ancient times, was built in the 6th century BC. It is known that it was founded in a hundred years. The ancient city is organized by boat tours from Marmaris. Admission to the island is chargeable and museum cardholders can enter free of charge.
