2 Very poor

The sea is extremely wavy. Seedy. Thick sand. There is plenty of wind. We stayed the night in the caravan and left in the morning without swimming. If you have caravanned in the Aegean, it is almost impossible to be satisfied in this region.

It's a quiet, not too crowded beach. The sea is beautiful, but the beach is very neglected.

Bilal Soylu

4 Frustrating

It's just a place with a beautiful sea and beach and zero business sense. The bathroom sprinkler is broken, a manager says give him a bucket and take a shower with it. Mosquitoes, you don't go out of the room very much in the evenings, it's not the property's fault because there are reeds all around.

Reeds next to it. That's why there are plenty of mosquitoes and frogs. If you are going to stay in a summer house, be sure to have fly guards with you. The sea is very beautiful, but it is April now and there are many jellyfish. According to what they said, they were guests here for 2 weeks. :)

👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻When you get away from the sun loungers further on the beach, there is a lot of HUGE GARBAGE on the sandy parts. THERE ARE SNORKELS, LINE, LARGE PLASTIC, THE LARGE DIRT AND GARBAGE YOU CAN THINK, PLEASE, THIS IS THE PLACE WE SEE. PLEASE THROW IT INTO THE TRASH OR SOMEONE FORWARD IT TO THE RELEVANT OFFICIALS. THEY ARE CONSTANTLY METTING INTO THE SEA, IT IS A VERY PAINFUL SITUATION FOR OUR MERTIN, OUR SILIFKEM. THERE ARE A LOT OF GARBAGE ON THE SANDY PLACES INSTEAD OF THE TRASH CANS STILL THERE. IT NEEDS TO BE CLEANED URGENTLY. THE SAME SAME SAME EVERY YEAR.👈🏼👈🏼👈🏼👈🏼 I take one point away from the mosquitoes that come in the evening, they invade around 5 or 6 o'clock. We run away 😃 otherwise the sea is very beautiful, it is very clear as a sheet, it is very clean, I definitely recommend it, you can swim anywhere you want.
