4 Frustrating

The beach is way too expensive considering what you receive. It's advisable to bring your own water since a 1-liter bottle costs 25 Turkish Lira, which is quite unreasonable. In total, we paid 1300 Turkish Lira for a Caravan accommodating two adults and two children, along with an additional 75 Turkish Lira for electricity.

2 Very poor

I arrived at the beach with my small dog, but unfortunately, they weren't very pleased about it. Despite the fact that there was another dog freely roaming and barking on the premises, they informed me that pets are not allowed. So, I was politely denied entry. 😂

6 Pleasant

The campsite is quite small, with many RV's, but it has a pleasant appearance. Regrettably, there is a noisy road situated just behind the campsite. The services provided at the campsite meet basic Western standards.
