Gökçeada

Where in Turkey does the sun set last? The answer is a mountainous island rising in the middle of the Aegean, at the mouth of the Dardanelles: Gökçeada… The country’s westernmost point lies here; so every day, the day on this country’s soil ends last on this island’s rocks. Those who come to the island’s western shores to watch that final moment when the sun touches the sea enjoy a few more minutes of light while the rest of the country sinks into dusk.
