The name of this place is Seytan Sofrasi and the meaning is The Banquet of the Devil ..It looks like arolling stones song )))
Its situate in the hill of sarmisakli beach and you can watch from the top Ayvalik,Alibey ( cunda) and the beaches of Sarmisakli.
There is huge footprint on the top and they believe that this is the foot print of the devil .But its difficult to understand why they throw money to the hole of the footprint of the devil.I ve been here many many times but I ve never have the chance to meet the devil or eat something with him .
Its a wonderful place to watch he sundown and unfortunatel its crowded nowadays ...

Sarmisakli is the common name of the 22 beaches in the area.all the beaches are open to the public and the given names have nothing to do with the hotels around.
There is 6 official campings 59 hotels 160 restaurants in the area
The beach is 5 km long and 50-100 m depth.They say that the radiation is the best in Turkiye ( I m not so sure about this comment ).
The beaches are situated 8km to the city.

Once upon a time, a boy loves a girl. Their families try to thwart their happiness, so they run away.In feodal societies, rules works this way. Both are ordered to be killed. No chance, but to run away. They hide under a huge rock. As the armed searchers approach, according to one rumour, they become invisible.According to another, the rock suddenly starts moving and closes on the lovers. Some believe they happily sleep under the rock.
That’s why it is called the Bride Rock. According to the belief, the ones who miss their lovers touch their hands onto the rock and come together again soon.
