Rabbit Islands (Çanakkale)
The Rabbit Islands (Turkish: Tavşan adaları or Karayer adaları) are a group of small uninhabited Turkish islands in the northern Aegean Sea. They are situated approximately four nautical miles () off the mainland coast of the Turkish province of Çanakkale, north of the island of Tenedos (Bozcaada), and south-west of the entrance of the straights of the Dardanelles. The largest islet of the group, called ''Tavşan adası'' or ''Rabbit Island'' proper, is some long and wide. To its south are three small rocky islets called ''Pırasa'', ''Orak'' and ''Yılan''.〔(''Gezenbilir.com'': "Yelkenciler için Kuzey Ege" )〕
The Rabbit Islands gained some political and strategic significance in the early 20th century, because their territorial waters are important for the control of the entrance to the Dardanelles. They were assigned to Turkey in the Treaty of Lausanne, where they are mentioned in Article 12 along with the nearby larger islands of Tenedos and Imbros (Gökçeada), as the only Aegean islands to be retained by Turkey that are more than three miles ()away from its mainland coast.〔(Peace Treaty of Lausanne, 1923 )〕
Today the islets are a popular spot for diving enthusiasts.〔(Çanakkale governorship: "The islands of Çanakkale" )〕
