The remains of a 2,500-year-old ancient port were revealed for the first time in a generation due to a low tide in Turkey's northern Aegean town of Ören.

"I've been hiking up here for many years. I've been watching the seaside. It's the first time I see such a huge low tide," said local resident Timur Yılmaz, who is a retired military sergeant.
