The peninsula's eastern end is Bencik Cove, about 1.5 km in length and sometimes referred to as a fjord on the basis of local scales, and at the end of its indentation is the narrow isthmus where Datça Peninsula joins the Anatolian mainland is found. This point is a natural curiosity which offers a wide view of the two gulfs in the north and the south. The locality is called "Balıkaşıran" (literally, "the place where fish may leap across") and is also often used for the portage of small boats.
