Sea daffodils, an important part of Greek mythology, bloom with pure white flowers from August to October, adding color to the coasts and spreading a pleasant fragrance at night.
In the coastal area of Dalyan village, where the ancient harbor of Alexandria Troas is located, conscious locals protect the blooming sea daffodils by surrounding them with wire fences.
Informative signs are placed inside the fenced areas to educate visitors about the plant and prevent damage.
Those who pick sea daffodils face a fine of 557,212 lira under the Environmental Law.
