Hamidiye, Antalya, Turkey – August 15, 2021. View of Hamidiye Bay in Kekova area of Antalya province of Turkey, with touring boats. The bay has a historical feature as Hamidiye Battle Cruiser, which set sail from Canakkale on January 13, 1913 during the Balkan War and earned its captain-commander Huseyin Rauf Orbay the titles of “The first captain-commander who executed a raid campaign in the history” and “Hero of Hamidiye” by sailing 11.500 miles for 7 months and 24 days without any repair; anchored here on the way to Aegean Sea from Beirut on the dates of January 25-26, 1913 for two days in order to rest, clean its boilers and trick the enemy. The height of the island created a natural and hidden shelter by preventing the Hamidiye Cruiser’s masts from being seen.
