Sinap is a neighbourhood in the municipality and district of Erdemli, Mersin Province, Turkey.[1] Its population is 179 (2022).[2] The village is situated in the peneplane area to the north of Çukurova (Cilicia) plains. The distance to Erdemli is 28 kilometres (17 mi) and the distance to Mersin is 44 kilometres (27 mi). The name of the village probably means "underwater".
