The Prince Islands

The Prince Islands(Turkish=Prens adaları, because the name means “Islands of the Princes”) officially “Adalar” is an archipelago off the coast of Istanbul, in the sea of Marmara. It has a population of 16.690(2022) people. It is by far the least populous district in Istanbul.

As we organize a trip to the prince islands every semester, it is a great trekking, biking and swimming spot of Istanbul. Even camping is a common activity in islands. Eventhough they are small islands(except Büyükada) it lasts a day to comprehensively visit there.
