Salih Ada (anciently, Taramptos (Ancient Greek: Ταράμπτος)[1] and Caryanda (Ancient Greek: Καρύανδα)[2]) is a Turkish island in the Aegean Sea, located north of Bodrum. It is located in the Muğla Province. It is located across Güvercinlik Bay on the Muğla-Bodrum highway. Salih Ada is a popular tourist destination, and is accessible by boat from Bodrum. The hills to the east of the island are covered with pine forest and olive groves.

The original location of the town of Caryanda was on this island before its relocation to the mainland.[3][4] Under the name Taramptos, it was a member of the Delian League and is mentioned in a tribute decree of ancient Athens dated to 425/4 BCE. It is also mentioned in an inscription recovered at Halicarnassus dated to 300 BCE.[5]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
