Goddess Aphrodite brought the first fruit to Cyprus in Iskele, formerly known as Trikomo. Iskele is the center of attention of tourists with its touristic facilities, fish restaurants and the "Haravdi" beach. The Iskele region, where villages such as Bafra, Mehmetçik, Dipkarpaz and Yenierenköy are located, is also the place where the wild Karpaz Donkeys, the symbol of Cyprus, are found. Iskele, where untouched beaches such as Bafra and Altın Beach are located, is also one of the most interesting places in Northern Cyprus with its natural vegetation and historical artifacts.
Agios Philon Church, Kantara Castle, King Tombs, Apostolos Andreas Monastery, Ayia Trias Basilica, Kanakaria Church and Philon Church can be visited in Iskele.
