Following the celebrations held at schools, together with their families, children join us to celebrate the day once again, this time in the coastal town of Bebek, by the Bosphorus. The seas and seafaring constitute the theme of each and every activity there. Children enjoy short rides in sailboats and rowboats. They play or dance to sailors\u2019 songs; they take part in competitions related to seafaring. As they watch documentaries on underwater life or divers who dive right before them, children get to learn about different dimentions of the seas. Children witness the energy, enthusiasm, that come with the variety offered by the seas, and they experience the comfort provided by sea transport&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><em>Three sides of our beautiful country Turkey are surrounded by the Black Sea, the Marmara Sea, the Eagean Sea, and the Mediterranean Sea.
