While the beach has the potential to be stunning, it unfortunately suffers from poor upkeep, resulting in its less than ideal condition. The beach itself is a mix of sand and stones, and access to it is provided via a pathway. Visitors with vehicles can park at the cemetery and make their way on foot. For those without cars, they can opt to take the Kemer or Balı minibuses from the city center, disembark, and walk a short distance. As we didn't go swimming, I cannot provide any feedback on that aspect. Despite being neglected, it remains a delightful spot to unwind and appreciate the soothing sounds of the waves, particularly in the evening.

It's a lovely, peaceful beach with a serene atmosphere. There's a beautiful walking path, but it would be even better if the local authorities ensured its cleanliness and visitors didn't litter.

The beach was really clean when I visited, but I couldn't go swimming since I'm not a strong swimmer. It was a bit challenging for me, but if you're experienced, you can have a great time. Additionally, it's an ideal spot to witness a beautiful sunset.

The weather was perfect with calm sea currents, no wind, and plenty of sunshine. We stumbled upon this charming little bay during a truly beautiful moment, but I won't go into details. Moreover, the lack of transportation options is one of the reasons why the beach remains deserted and pristine. I really hope it stays this way, always clean. If you happen to find yourself in the Black Sea region and are looking for a stunning time by the beach, you'll definitely have your fill of the sea.
