Karasu, Black Sea coastal district in Sakarya Province, Turkey
The district of Karasu stretches along 411 square kilometers of Black Sea coastline, incorporating 40 different neighborhoods within its municipal boundaries.
The region developed through hazelnut cultivation and mineral extraction, with zinc and lead mining operations starting in 1898 and continuing until World War I.
The district maintains strong agricultural traditions centered on hazelnut farming, while the coastal position influences local fishing practices and seafood preparation methods.
