Cape Baba

Cape Baba or Cape Lecton is the westernmost point of the Turkish mainland, making it the westernmost point of Asia. It is located at the village of Babakale, Ayvacık, Çanakkale, in the historical area of the Troad. There was a lighthouse at Cape Baba that was called Lekton in classical times, anglicised as Cape Lecture.
