Datça Peninsula
The Datça Peninsula, also known as the Reşadiye Peninsula, is an 80 km-long, narrow peninsula in southwest Turkey separating the Gulf of Gökova to the north from the Hisarönü to the south. The peninsula corresponds almost exactly to the administrative district of Datça, part of Muğla Province. The town of Datça is located at its halfway point.
Older Greek names (that were native to the area), for the peninsula, include the Dorian or Cnidos Peninsula or the Chersonisos Cnidia.
