★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Situated about 300 meters on the mediterranean sea off shore, this castle lies on the center of Mersin province. Maiden Castle was manufactured to defend the ancient city of Korykos. The tough stonework of the castle, a matter of tradition is quite inspiring. The castle was mended by Karamanoğlu İbrahim Bey. The castle was named Maidens castle because it was informed that a king held his daughter here in captivity to make sure that she is safe but she was killed by a poisonous snake as predicted by some that she would pass away by a snake bite. Sometimes, castle is also called by locals as “Girl’s castle”. It went through a lot of empires but always remembered by the love of the father to his daughter.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ From the coast you have beautiful view to the castle and surrounding area. There's kind of coffee/ tea place on the beach where you can enjoy views. Can be crowded and dirty cos of the people who don't look after. Also there's a boat which takes you all way to the castle if you would like to visit it. Nice historical place to visit.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It's a nice place to swim to, even though you would hardly find any fellow swimmers there. People prefer getting to the Castle by means of taking one of the numerous boats available at the seaside. The Castle itself is in the state of permanent repair, which is typical for Turkey, though.
Anyway, I would like to recommend visiting the place in case you happen to reside nearby.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great place to swim or to take a boat and visit the castle. And by castle I mean the ruins. In summer it gets crowded, but even then you can find plenty of space on the beach.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Wonderful historical castle in sea sourounded by pure water.
You can go up stairs on the castle wall to enjoy the wonder sea view.
You can reach there by ships which take people from the beach to the castle for a fee.
I really recommend visiting this castle once you arrive to Mersin
