Gumusluk is set amidst tangerine groves and foliage and its shoreline is decked with seafood restaurants. Gumusluk roughly means a form of "silver". Piri Reis explains how this village got its name in his writings in 1521. He explains that during the reign of Sultan Mehmed II, flourishing silver mines existed near the town and the city was named after them. The locals argue that Gumusluk gets its name due to the silvery light emitted by the sea's phosphorescence at night.

Gumusluk has been the scene of some momentous events in history. When Anthony and Cleopatra set sail for Rome - they made a stop here. Myndos is where Brutus and his fellow conspirators hatched their plan to murder Julius Caesar and is also the site Brutus fled to and hid for a time after the assassination. Today, this 5,000-year-old site is an important part of Turkish tourism. It is totally cosmopolitan and very popular, particularly with British tourists.
