Kargı Adası is an uninhabited Turkish islet in the Aegean Sea, in Muğla Province, and a tourist destination renowned for fishing and scuba diving. It is likely that the island takes its name, which is literally translated as Spear Island, from the rock formations that make up the islet and resemble spears pointed towards the sky.
