When we dive at Bogsak, we stay a few miles away in the small resort town of Kiz Kalesi. Kiz Kalesi has a castle on shore, and another that seems to float in the water. The English name is Maiden's Castle and there is a legend behind the name. The king tried to keep his daughter safe by keeping her in the castle surrounded by water. However, when one of her courters sent her a basket of fruit, it contained a poisonous snake that bit and killed the princess.
