The lakes within Adana’s Yumurtalik Lagoon National Park stand out for their pristine natural structures and the striking shapes that emerge across the water’s surface.
Spanning nearly 17,000 hectares, Yumurtalik Lagoon is a vast wetland shaped over time by the alluvial sediments brought down by the Seyhan and Ceyhan rivers.
These natural deposits gradually formed the lagoon’s unique structure, giving rise to its lakes, wetlands and fertile ecosystems.
Along the shores, traditional fishing continues as local fishermen live and work in rhythm with the lagoon’s natural cycles, sustaining centuries-old practices within the protected boundaries of the national park.
Together, these elements shape Yumurtalik Lagoon as a living landscape where water, wildlife and human tradition coexist in a delicate balance.
