Although they are called seven islands there are actually five small islands and two islets. The Göllü island is situated about 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) north of the others. The names of the other four islands which lie in parallel to coast line from north east to south west are; Küçük, Zeytinli, Uzun and Martılı .[2] Each island is situated about 250 metres (820 ft) apart from the next one. The smallest island is Küçük ("little") as the name implies. Even the bigger islands are not bigger than 0.1 square kilometres (0.039 sq mi). Their distance to the coast is less than 1 kilometre (0.62 mi)
