The map
Yumurtalık lies on the northwestern shore of the Gulf of İskenderun in Adana Province, at the southern edge of the Çukurova plain. The town sits on a modest bay, and its map combines a compact pattern of streets behind the harbour with an open coastline running away on either side, where the land is low and lined with beaches.
In antiquity the site was known as Aegeae, and in the Middle Ages as Ayas, an important port of the Armenian Kingdom of Cilicia. Marco Polo passed through Ayas in 1271 on his way east. Remains of its fortifications survive, including a small sea castle on an islet just offshore, which is still clearly visible on the map.
Along the coast to the west, shallow lagoons form a protected wetland known for its birdlife, adding broad shapes of water to the shoreline. A Yumurtalık map poster brings together harbour, castle islet, lagoon and plain, a coastline defined as much by its long history as a port as by its geography.
A small fortified islet lies just off the harbour, a remnant of medieval Ayas and one of the most distinctive shapes on the map.
Behind the bay, a compact, low-rise pattern of streets fills the centre, running back from the waterfront toward the open plain.
Shallow lagoons and wetlands create broad, irregular forms of water, a protected habitat for waterbirds and a clear contrast to the tight town streets.

Why Yumurtalık
Yumurtalık appeals to people who spend summers on this coast, families from Adana with a house by the sea, and travellers curious about the old port of Ayas. The shoreline and islet make a clear, well-balanced image.
Personalise the title, subtitle and coordinates line with a family name, a holiday year or the old name Ayas. Sand and Paper recall the beaches; Classic black & white, Noir and Blueprint give a more graphic reading of the coast.
