The 49 best beaches in and around Istanbul

This is a very beautiful beach club. It has a big swimming pool as well. I only have two issues with it. The first one is that food and drinks are very expensive here. The second issue, and the main one, is the entrance fee. There is a sign at the gate that says 600TL per person for using the beach and the swimming pool. But the guys at the gate told us this fee is for Turkish citizens only. The sign doesn’t say that and there is no other sign showing the fees for tourists. The guys charged us 1000TL +5% per person if we pay by card. I paid for my two Turkish nephews 600TL per person without the extra 5% using my bank card. For the remaining of us, non Turkish citizens, I paid 1000TL +5% per person using the same bank card. When I asked them why they charged the 5% in the second case, they told me the POS machines they used in each time are for different banks. I believe these guys take advantage of tourists. Management should do something about this by displaying a sign clearly showing the fees for tourists. I don’t think I will be coming to this beach club again.

Super quiet when we went (weekday in July). It was windy but the weather was perfect. We didn’t order or eat anything so can’t say much about the service. The water was clean and cold and there weren’t any waves. We really enjoyed our time. Cost 800 try per person. No drinks or food allowed.

I was very disappointed with this beach. I had booked a tour from a pamphlet from my hotel. The hotel was nice enough to book it for me as a single male you cannot go to this beach facility. It's hey family only so i was put on another beach further down for men. They have barriers, so you don't go too far out to swim. The furthest you can go out is to about just below your waist. The lifeguards continuously blew the whistle to pull people back. It gets a one star for a cold beer.They have. I have included the pamphlet advertisement. They provide and nowhere, doesn't say anything about that. Solo males and you can see the big difference between where I was and what was advertised.

It's a rip-off. We have booked a tour there with our hotel and I have paid 180 Euro for 6 people. The weather was windy and no one was allowed on the beach only in their small shallow swimming pool. I understand the safety concerns for the swimmers but I wanted to just walk on the sand and touch the water. No one said in advance that you cannot bring any food or drinks with you and the food inside is extremely overpriced, 400 lira for a portion of french fries. Half a cup of coffee is 200. Quality and service are not really there. When I went to the changing room, i just touched a door and it fell off which could have been an injury. Right next to this beach there is another one that does allow people in the water, allows to take your own food and is much more affordable. I feel ripped off, unfortunately this is a very prominent feeling in Istanbul, not very friendly.

One of the worst places I have ever visited... I checked the place before entering and it did not mention that it is for adults only and I have 3 children. After paying the entrance fee, we went to use the pool and I was informed that it is for adults and children cannot use it. Why are there no prior instructions about this and why did no one inform me of this before entering? The prices of food and drinks inside are 5 times the prices in normal places. In the end, the service for the amount of money is zero. The place is bad, unfortunately.

The beach is so lovely and well-maintained, with excellent service. Unfortunately, outside food and drinks are not permitted, but the restaurant offers reasonably priced meals. We have visited several times and it's always spotless. I appreciate the abundance of lifeguards on duty.

Great atmosphere, good service, clean beach I enjoyed all the day and I will come back definitely

The music and atmosphere nice, but there is no hygiene, the restroom and shower place was really bad. I paid 700 tl and i expect at least better shower place. I couldn’t use WC because it was so dirty.

A fun beach that is just 40 minutes away from central Istanbul. Suma Beach does not exist anymore and the place is now called Silver Plajı. The entrance fee on a week day is 40TL per person, not including anything. There is a car park I'd you're planning to drive, showers and free umbrella and bed. Food is decent but drinks are on the high end. Make sure to get your own towel with you. The beach/water us relatively clean.

The beach is fine although you can't go very far into the water. The lifeguards kept screaming over the intercom, but we were not sure why as we didn't understand the language. It felt aggressive. To get there you can take a metro to a certain point and then a bus to a university. From there you have to walk down a road to get to the beach. They have great pizzas and the drinks were good too.

It was clean. The staff were polite and friendly. The prices were a bit expensive. Unfortunately food was not good at all. In general, we were satisfied.

The place is relatively clean, though some areas need more cleanliness. It has a large sand beach with a couple of coffee shops and restaurants. It is a good beach to spend a few hours with the family on a hot sunny day.

Place is more like a slum but fun times are guaranteed regardless. Entry is overpriced 100 TL. Drinks are expensive and watered down. But yet still - you will get what you are looking for here. You dig ?

A mysterious, beautiful place on the Black Sea. We visited Suma for a music festival and discovered the meaning of life. It was worth the drive from Istanbul.

(Translated by Google) Hotel cleaning is a disgrace (Original) Otel temizliği rezalet

(Translated by Google) Very beautiful 👍 (Original) Çok güzel 👍

Family friendly doesn't mean family ties..it literally means that a man must bring along a woman. Also, entering separately is not an option. This is disturbing on so many levels.

A bit run down last time toilet were cleaned looked like 2000. Beach lovely with cafe for beer and snacks

Just check these pictures and you will wish to visit.

I did love our time on the beach. The waiter (sorry I'm hopeless with names) was great. The reason for three stars is the lack of clean facilities. Toilets were in desperate need of good scrub, showers were so so. The biggest disappointment were the changing canines. Dirty ground and nowhere to put my bag. I will probably be back, but only because of my children. Also the very much advertised service to the port doesn't actually leave the beach club until half past five in the evening. I feel like there need to be an earlier one. There were quite a few people leaving around the time I did, so a boat at half past three wouldn't go a miss...

Wonderful island far from Istanbul city by one hour ride by boad

The enterance is 50 tl and not good services. During enter they re checking all ur staff and distrubing to u with bad behavior. I was staying with my wife and we were at family place. While ı was going to bistro, the security asked me, ı can not enter to family place because there are families. Okey ı understood alteady ı am with my wife there. Also in middle of family place there were 4 man and they werent with any family, they were drinking alcohol in the bottle of water they were checking to woman with their eyes and with bad words. İncredible bad place. If you are really single ı can prefer that place 🤘If u re family no way, stay in ur home, is much better 🎉🎊

one of the worst places i have ever been to. I was assured, before we waited 45 minutes for the boat to get there to leave, that there was a sandy beach, however this turned out to be about 15 metres of dirty, cigarette butt littered sand. The rest was concrete covered with septic ciggratte butt covered astroturf. The sunbeds were dirty, the tables were dirty, the floor was dirty. Everything was dirty. We were stopped, (after paying 35tl to get in), and had our food and water confiscated, and therefore forced to buy expensive horrible, unhealthy food (my burger was cold and looked like it had been constructed by a toddler on a speedboat, but with slightly less care and attention and joi de vivre). The beer was at least cold. This is the only thing that was acceptable. Worst of all there was constant terrible deafening music playing, not mixed, probably just an ipod playlist of one of the mouthbreathing staff. It was painfully loud and painfully bad (you could not listen to your own on a personal stereo because their music was so deafening) and absolutely nowhere you could escape it. It is entirely possible that the same people who run Aqua Greenbeach got their work experience at Guantanemo bay. Please save yourself from a horrific experience and avoid this place at all costs

This place is like a dream. We went for the breakfast, food was beyond delicious, atmosphere make you feel like you are in holiday, everything was clean, there is baby room as well and wheelchair access. Service 100 out of 10. The place is beachside and they have car park (you have to pay if you only using beach). If you in Istanbul looking place with peace and delicious food, you have to come and see this place, don't miss it.

Amazing Breakfast, Good service, reasonable price. Nice terrace with Good view. From outside looks a bit weird , all the way up to restaurant we will pass by one floor that maybe using for staff, so we will might be see clothes hanging for drying 😁what a view before Entrance to the restaurant 😂. Not a big issue , because their food are good, tasty. Also they have playground for kids so you can eat freely and your kids are playing 😁. Not so bad, Recommended.

A lovely beach restaurant right next to the Black Sea. To access the restaurant, one needs to pay an entry fee that includes access to the beach facilities (showers, WC, beach, rest.) and parking lot. The place was clean and well organized. Has a few lifeguards on duty. The beach has natural golden sand and the sea is shallow for about 500m, so safe for kids to enjoy the beach as well.

A lot of jellyfish in the sea but not harmful, the sand must be more clean, not so bad If you bring cash with you would be cheaper , prices slightly expensive.

Great restaurant, delicious food. But the price is too high in my opinion. Excellent service! Thank you!

Amazing service, great food with a great few! Clean facilities and even a baby change room in the bathroom. Really enjoyed the place!

Didn't like the food and showers. They were too old and barely had warm water. But the atmosphere, beds and umbrellas and beach was good.

Many reviews speak about the price to enter (500 TL per person at the time of writing). The owner should highly consider posting the price at the gate so tourists don’t believe they are being scammed. Transparent pricing is incredibly important. 30 TL for a small bottle of water. I was told 200 TL for a beer. The few employees we had to speak with didn’t know English. There is no sand on the beach, it’s more like a swimming pool in the sea. The music is good and not too loud if you aren’t sitting right by the speaker. They had umbrellas, chairs, changing rooms, and toilets. My wife said the toilet is small and disgusting.

The place left us desiring for a more clean water (adding photo evidences). Parasols, wifi, music included in the entrance fee, which is 600TL per person. Smokers smoking right lying on their chaiselongues amidst children, pregnant women and non-smokers, but I guess this is a common issue

The elevator and wi-fi were working, the kitchen was good, and the staff were very friendly. There were hardly any people, so it felt like we had the whole beach to ourselves. The beach could be maintained a bit better, cleaned from seaweed and jellyfish that’s why some people leave instead of staying. The price was 750 lira on the weekend, which is less than the neighboring beach that charges 900 lira for the same days.

It is an old dock with brown water everywhere. Drinks are 8 usd each. It's 20$ per person to enter. I would say this is quite possibly the worst beach club I've ever been to. Do not come here.

It is a robbery. There is absolutely nothing, the maintenance is extremely poor but they still try to make you pay 15€ (750 lira) per person!!!! He is going to say all the beaches charge that but there is another one with a beach and a swimming pool nearby that is more worth it

Tourist trap, don’t let the photos fool you. 600 lira per person for an old rundown wooden dock that is mostly rusted. 200 lira for a towel if you don’t have one already, over priced drinks, unkept toilets with too many spiders, everything is in a state of decay and needs some maintenance. Charging that much for a “beach” is pretty insane. Not sure if you can find a better place to swim around here but I’d recommend finding one of you can.

The staff were nice and location was good. You can walk here fron ferry station. The water was not clean as in many cimments. Jellyfish also. The toilets were not that clean. The benches were good and clean. Cash only for the entrance but the bar accepts card. It is sbetter thabk nothing but it is not worth the price.

Nice to be

(Translated by Google) Due to Ramadan, they serve normal breakfast plate instead of brunch. An even below average plate. The staff is very attentive, but the food and beverages offered are grossly inadequate. Here I witnessed for the first time that a business serving breakfast could not provide orange juice. There is a coincidence cafe, Happy Moon etc. very close by, they are much better. (Original) Ramazan nedeniyle brunch yerine normal kahvalti tabagi veriyorlar. Vasatin da altinda bir tabak. Personel cok ilgili fakat sunulan yiyecek icecek fena halde yetersiz. Kahvalti sunan bir isletmenin portakal suyu veremedigine ilk kez burada sahit oldum. Cok yakinlarinda tesaduf cafe, happy moon falan var, kat kat daha iyiler.

(Translated by Google) I can't say anything positive except the view. I went with my friends from Ankara for brunch. Everything that should be hot is cold. Everything that should have been cooked was raw. (Original) Manzara dışında olumlu hiçbir şey söyleyemeyeceğim.

Tirt

An adorable island with lots of shops and food options. The 30-45 min ferry to the island was pleasant and schedules are posted on the island for easy planning. There is a scenic walk around the island and picnic areas overlooking the water. The locals are very friendly.

This is the most beautiful island of the Prince islands. It's worth of visiting all time but it's better to go during the week days to avoid the crowds.

One of the Prince Islands with beautiful nature and panoramic view of the Marmaras sea, from the top of the hill (which is existing a religious school and a Greek Orthodox monastery). Small cozy port which have connections with the other Prince Islands.

One of best place i ever visited specially the forest with big trees and houses with very beautiful garden. No noise, no pollution.

Peaceful, calming, took a bike around the island and it was amazing

Amazing island with very nice view and easy to access with ferry.

A dreamy place to chill and forget about the urban world. I highly recommend it in spring✨👏☀️it's always beautiful in every season, though.

Paid urban beach – June 2025 price: 120 Turkish lira. You can pay by card or use an Istanbulkart. It’s better to arrive early—by 10 AM, there were hardly any sunbeds left. The beach has basic amenities: sunbeds, a decent sea entrance, changing cabins, showers, toilets, and a café. But there are major downsides. The toilets are dirty, with no toilet paper and a strong unpleasant smell. The café serves only low-quality fast food. The long line of locals at the lockers makes you question the safety of leaving your belongings on the beach. The biggest issue is the filthy beach The sand is covered in cigarette butts and plastic waste—I even saw several people casually tossing their cigarette butts into the sand. Nearly everyone smokes, so forget about enjoying fresh sea air. The water is no better, with floating trash like plastic and even hygiene products. The beach is overcrowded, the sea is shallow, and lifeguards won’t let you swim past the buoys. It’s also very noisy —people blast loud music from speakers, shout, kick up sand when walking, and smoke nonstop. If you just need a quick swim and tan, this might do (Istanbul doesn’t have many public beaches). But don’t expect cleanliness or comfort.

There are sunbeds but most of them are not usable. The sand is full of cigarettes. The sea is not deep but there is a lot of algae. The food they sell is sandwiches and burgers which are not worth the price. The iced coffee tastes bad. Overall, it is a good place but needs a lot of improvement.

entry fee was 120 TL, sunbeds were free, feels like an industrial area with all the boats jn the distance. Problem is with the water: it was full of seaweed-like stuff, loads of jellyfish, plastic, even cigarettes.

On the first glance, we were happy to see that beautiful view. But when you come closer, you can see a lot of trash in the sand. The sea is covered with seaweed and we didn't want to swim here. For sunbathing or relaxing, ok, just take spare blankets for cover because parasols are tricky. Entrance: 120 TRY

Great natural spot.🌊 Poorly maintained. 🚬 Sea is full of sea weed. 🍃 Food quality can be better.🌭 This place has potential to one of the prime hotspots. 🏖️

Great for: Family, Couples, Sunset Views, Photography, Relaxing Walks Florya Beach is one of the hidden gems of Istanbul, offering a peaceful escape from the city's fast pace. With its clean shoreline, relaxing walking paths, and panoramic views of the Marmara Sea, this spot is perfect for anyone who wants to enjoy nature without going far from the city center. 🏖️ Beach & Environment: The beach area is well-maintained with soft sand and crystal-clear water (especially during summer months). It's a great place to sunbathe, have a picnic, or just sit and enjoy the calming sound of the waves. 🌅 Sunset Spot: This is one of the BEST places in Istanbul to watch the sunset. The golden hour over the sea is magical — perfect for romantic walks or stunning Instagram photos. 🚶‍♂️ Walking & Cycling Paths: There are long coastal walkways and bicycle paths surrounded by green areas. It's a safe and quiet place for families, joggers, and nature lovers. 🍔 Nearby Cafés & Restaurants: You’ll find plenty of places nearby for tea, coffee, or a meal with a sea view. Many locals enjoy their weekends here because of the relaxing vibes and easy access. 🚗 Transportation & Access: Florya is easily reachable via Marmaray or Metrobus. There is also public parking available nearby. 🧽 Cleanliness & Safety: The beach and surrounding park area are usually very clean and well-patrolled, making it suitable for families with kids. 💬 Final Review: If you're in Istanbul and need a calm, beautiful place by the sea, Florya Beach is the perfect getaway. Highly recommended for a day of peace, nature, and unforgettable sunsets. 💙🌊🌅

It’s crowded!! I recommend to go during the weekends and arrive early to reserve a tan bed. The water has a lot of algae not the best but it’s convenient for tanning . The price for this year is 120₺ and you can pay with Istanbul card. It is located near Marmaray Florya metro station walking distance of 5mins

The Istanbul trip would not be completed without visiting this island, absolutely worth visiting there. It has a different vibes. i liked it a lot

This is a must see when you’re visiting Istanbul. Get a ferry from Kabatas (T1 tram, Adalar from the main terminal, the massive modern building - NOT fake Adalar to the left of the petrol station where the man with loudspeaker will direct you but they don’t accept the Istanbul travel card and only have a couple of sailings. Ferries every hour and the journey takes just under 2 hours stopping several times on the way at Asian side and smaller islands. The island is a haven away from the bustle of Istanbul. However, we visited October when the tourist numbers are diminished - in high season it’ll be busy. I stayed for a week in 1981 and again in 1993 when even in August, tourist numbers were manageable, so this was a trip down memory lane. We nearly stayed again on the spur of the moment with some hotels being reasonable (2k/3k TL in October). Walked to the mosque at Nizam, looking at the beautiful wooden houses and flowering plants, then on to Asiklar. The fitter and more intrepid and those of an Orthodox persuasion may care to visit the Greek Monastery high on a hill in the middle of the island. Caught the bus back to Adalar, using the Istanbul card to pay and ate lunch one road back from the sea front at Pelikan - very reasonable compared to Istanbul and excellent fish. Then cake and tea in bread shop just further down. It’s a short stroll around the main town from where you can catch an Adalar Lines ferry back to Kabatas or island hop on the local ferries and pay cash like we did (much cheaper than using the travel card for one stop as you’ll pay to go back to Istanbul for each hop as tourists can’t use the refund machines). When you’re ready to go back to Istanbul, catch the Adalar lines ferry from your last stop… Great views of the massive expansion of Istanbul on the Asian side out and back, a mini cruise and plenty of sea air. The island is hilly so unless you’re reasonably fit, catch a bus. In the old days you could get a donkey and trap but those days (and the farting donkeys) are a thing of the past.

Büyükada is such a peaceful escape from Istanbul’s chaos! No cars, just bikes and electric carts, which makes it feel super calm and charming. The sea views, old houses, and fresh air make it perfect for a relaxing day trip. Don’t skip the lokma , ice cream and ferry ride totally worth it! 🌸🚲🌊

I don’t really know how people “escape from Istanbul” here, because of its Extremely touristic place. Visiting on Saturday, all the roads were full of tourists, restaurants and local businesses are mostly oriented to take as much money as possible with the least good service. Nature and architecture is really good, but it looks like a background for touristic photography only, because of there are lines of people doing photos only, not enjoying and really watching the place. Bicycle rent, which is advertised all over is totally not useful there, because of an island is full of up and down roads which make impossible to ride a bike for more then 10 minutes for a anyone not being professional sportsman. The place is too overrated, don’t recommend.

The trip was amazing it has mixed of a nature and city walk the only issue is that the way back it took us 1:45 hrs juat make sure to take the correct ferry as no one can help you or speak english

First time went to this island, it was so beautiful 😍😍😍. Worth to visit. We rent a bicycle to explore some part of the Island.

Amazing spot of beauty and nature to walk around and enjoy, and even rent a bicycle to tour the island, getting there takes a bit of time (around 2 hrs with the ferry) but trust me it is worth the experience.

Avoid this beach at all costs. Worst one Iv ever been too. It’s full of litters and cigarettes butts. They don’t maintain it at all. And the dirty beach really impacts your mood. We paid 900 to get in but they won’t let people use the beach umbrella because it’s too “windy”, meanwhile some people were allowed. The staff were not friendly. It’s not women friendly either. There is a zone full of empty chairs for men, and there is a zone for mixed genders. I was asked to leave the mens zone but no women only zone for me to go to. That’s it. I recommend Tirmata Balik & Beach just a few minutes walk away where staff were friendly and amenities are well maintained.

Minimum viable beach with poor service. Unwelcoming people, price still okey. The beach is clean, still if you want to swim, you’ll be disappointed as the space limited for swimming is too small and the water not deep at all (probably nice for children).

Clean and long beach. There charges 250 tl per adult but they don’t offer towel! There are two live guards. There’s a cafe and changing rooms and toilets.

Worst beach I've been to... The whole beach is littered with cigarette butts, garbage, dirty sunbeds. Entry 250 lire, 0.3 beer for 170 lire.

Beautiful Beach, amazing sea however the beds and umbrellas need maintenance. The cafe is poor, however they let you have your own snacks. Washroom needs improvement.

Crowded, noisy, paid 900 liras entree at 1600 and I was asked to leave shortly. Not only me, all guests were asked to leave cause they had a private party. The beach has lovely sand full with cigarette buds.

The service quality not so good But the place is so nice and restful The sea water is clean and shalow Suitable for children

It's a magnificent sea for swimming, surrounded by greenery. But I can't say the same for the managment.The beach cushions are covered in seagull poop, the woodwork is unpainted, the beach beds are so crammed together that you become relatives to the person next to you. The staff has bad quality clothing. But the prices rival Monaco's and nice fine beaches.

Here is a great escape from the hectic city with a great ambiance, perfect seafood, very good service and great beach. I recommend the seafood of the day to be checked apart from the restaurant menu, they have lobster and giant king prawns if you are not too late to catch.

We have been there with our group of friends. It’s a magnificent location with great sea, fantastic view and excellent service. Staff were friendly and helping. Unfortunately the taste of food was average. This kind of place , considering the high price level as well, deserves a much better taste. Also it was disappointing to see that almost all sun lounger cushions were dirty or stained. It’s a place we love to spend time at and I hope they would seriously consider these constructive criticism of ours.

Elio Sedef was the DREAM venue for our wedding in May 2023 : the scenery, the food, the service, the music, the decoration, the transfers. The team is 100% dedicated and makes sure that everything is perfect, until the last detail. We couldn’t have wished for a better place to celebrate our wedding … teşekkür ederiz Elio!

Calm place, more than excelente service, food, view

Worth for ambiance and magnificent view, but do not expect too much from food and service. First time ever, the waiter offered to put ice cubes into white wine in glass, since it was not cold enough 🥸. Good service doesn’t mean to interrupt your conversation frequently to change plates even

Tiny little island with a chic restaurant.. It is not easy to go as it is the farthest island but worth it. Prepare yourself to spend the day there. Pack your swimsuit too..

Terrible

(Translated by Google) I came here by chance with my family. First impression is good. Apart from cafes and restaurants, this is good. A calm environment. I will make a comment about the prices when I get the bill. (Original) Ailemle tesadüfen geldim. İlk intiba güzel. Kafe ve restorant ayrı bu iyi. Sakin bir ortam.

(Translated by Google) What a filthy place.

(Translated by Google) I guess they wanted to celebrate the August 30 Victory Day by serving customers at astronomical prices. Breakfast per person is 650 TL. It's a joke. No, you already pay 350 TL per person for the entrance, what are the prices of food and drinks? Oh, and there is no self-service beach service, you have to go and get it yourself. It's a perfect place :) There are no cushions on the sun loungers, the boards are sinking. But the cushions on the grass area are nice. (Original) 30 Ağustos Zafer bayramını müşterilere astronomik fiyatla hizmet vererek kutlamak istediler sanırım. Kişi başı serpme kahvaltı 650 TL. Şaka gibi.

Mükemmel bir yer 🙂 Şezlonglarda minder yok tahtalar batıyor. Ama çim alanda minderler güzel.

(Translated by Google) It is a visually beautiful wedding venue. The lawn and sea view are wonderful. The visuals of the products used in the organization were also successful. However, you definitely need to change the waiter team. It was a disgrace. There are 10 waiters on the dance floor who catch money thrown into the air before it falls, or they enter the dance floor by hitting you and collect money from your feet. There's more to tell, but there's no need. If you change your team, you will be successful. (Original) Görsel olarak çok güzel bir düğün alanı. Çimi ve deniz manzarası harika. Organizasyonda kullanılan ürünlerin görseli de başarılıydı. Ancak garson ekibini kesinlikle değiştirmeniz gerekiyor. Rezaletti. Dans pistine 10 tane garson havaya para atılınca düşmeden kapıyor ya da size vurarak piste girerek ayaklarınızdan para topluyor. Anlatacak daha çok şey var ama gerek yok. Ekibinizi değiştirirseniz başarılı olursunuz.

(Translated by Google) The bay is beautiful in terms of its location, it is surrounded by trees and has a green nature. The beach is sandy but the sea is dirty and not clean. The prices in the establishment are a bit exaggerated. Breakfast is 300 per person, beer is 100, you do the math. The bay also has a restaurant, which serves as a beach pub and restaurant. A quiet and calm bay. Good for sunbathing. The sea is your choice. (Original) Koy konum itibariyle güzel, etrafı ağaçlık, yeşil bir doğası var. Plaj kumlu fakat deniz kirli, temiz değil. İşletmedeki fiyatlar biraz abartı. Kahvaltı kişi başı 300, bira 100, hesabınızı siz yapın. Koyun bir de restoranı mevcut, beach pub ve restoran olarak hizmet verilmekte. Sessiz ve sakin bir koy. Güneşlenmek için güzel. Deniz sizin tercihiniz.

(Translated by Google) A man came out of this cafe and kicked us out of the beach because we came with OUR OWN WATER. He also swore in Google Translate. We ended up going to the restaurant higher up on the map. The whole family was poisoned there. (Original) Из этого кафе выходил человек, который нас выгнал с пляжа, потому что мы пришли СО СВОЕЙ ВОДОЙ. Он также ругался матом в Google Translate. В итоге мы пошли в ресторан выше на карте. Там отравились всей семьёй.

The staff and the owner are very friendly. There are some people who speak English but most of them speak only Turkish. The price is okay because it includes sunbeds, sun umbrellas, shower, toalet, changing room, volleyball court etc. There is a cafe and a restaurant there, you can order drinks and they bring it to you. They have a boat ride that is included in the price that gets you to the main port.

The sea has seaweed and is shallow. If you prefer sand and not rocks, and you’re not a very good swimmer, you can go. But if you want to swim, the water doesn’t get deep, so you won’t really enjoy it.

The territory is dirty (there is litter all over the place), staff are nowhere to be seen, one them told us to leave an empty cabana we found claiming it’s occupied and gave it to some chick that arrived after us, the swimming area is ridiculously small and most of it is knee deep, the water is clear but you can see a thin film of spent fuel floating on the surface, the music is awfully loud (to give you an idea: we went there on foot and we could hear it loud and clear when there were 10+ minutes left of walking till this beach club) I don’t recommend and I will not be coming back

THE WORST BEACH EVER! We were told there is a party with two DJs… no DJ, not even one, We asked if the beach was clean… it was NOT!!! We were told that the last ferry from the beach leaves at 6pm… the ferry left at 5pm without any notice or announcement!!!!! 600 TL for this??? Don’t waste your time. It’s not even a beach it feels more like a dirty lake. The toilets and the changing cabins are horrible!!! We’re highly disappointed! 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

The place is very beautiful they will take you with the boat to the beach but they couldn’t serve food because there was so many people ordering they cannot handle the crowd but over all it was nice

Guys at the entrance suddenly changed prices as soon as I started to speak englisch (I first asked in Turkish) and added 120 TL to the entrance fee. Probably the furthest you could stray from misafirperverlik, Türkiye is well deserved known for. The water itself is full of seaweed and it's not deep although ofc refreshing. The music is for dancing, but they played the same songs allover again. Felt like a tourist trap or definitely overpriced. I would definitely not recommend it and had an overall bad time unfortunately.

A nice clean and quiet beach of Heybeli island. Had a alot of friendly cats here and spent a quality time with them. The sunset view from any of the top points of this beach was amazing. High recommend to visit this island even you are for a short stay in Istanbul.

Kinalada island is a quiet and charming island, perfect for a peaceful escape from Istanbul. With no cars, beautiful walking paths, cozy beaches, and a touch of literary history, it’s a relaxing spot to enjoy nature and slow island life away from the crowds.

Lovely place

A perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of Istanbul. One reviewer said there wasn’t much to do here. That was kinda the point. We decide to “head to an island” at short notice on our last day in Istanbul and thus we didn’t actually have a lot of cash on us (became important later). Dashed down to Karaköy and paid the 150 TYL (cash only) each for the ferry (we thought it was return: again important later). We chose Kinaliada as it was the closest and we didn’t want to spend more of our time on the ferry. Was GREAT that the ferry was no smoking. A pleasant change for Istanbul. Our main intention was to walk. So we started out counter clockwise around the north then west side. When we reached the private club at the end we started the climb up. Over the bluff. Yes it was a climb but it was, in the end, the easier option (see later). Ended up at Noya Beach resort (see specify review of that) for a swim. On our return route we had thought we were going to simply complete our circumnavigation but we stopped to look at the very helpful map opposite the resort and we noticed the monastery listed at the top of the ridge between where we were and the dock side of the island. While again, yes, it was a climb, it meant we got to look at the views which also meant that we saw that the south east “beach side” route was ugly and litter strewn. So the climb was worth it. The monastery was nothing special from the outside (and only open until 1230). The descent down to the dockside was _steep_ and would be (as others have reported) a nasty climb. Also, as others noted, taking a bike would not be worth it either as, because if the steepness, you’d have to walk it a lot of the time. We were glad we chose Noya beach as far less crowded and more pleasant than the beaches on the dock side. Note… all the beaches are rocky. Water shoes recommended. We found a seat in a park in the shade to await the return ferry. The returns only started from 4pm onwards. When we presented our tickets that’s when we found they were not return. Fortunately we had noted the nearby _sole_ ATM on the island just in case and it accepted our Wise card and so we could get cash to pay for our return. A prefect last day in Istanbul.

Beautiful small island. But a bit dirty and the private seaside places do not have proper I structure like toilets and showers.

Beautiful small island nice ferry ride very relaxing nice people lot of history.

The smallest of the Istanbul Princess Island, my favorite ones are Burgaz and Heybeli but this one is also cute, little and peaceful... Not crowded and noisy like the central and the largest island called Büyükada

My favorite island, I think the walking area is so fun and diverse, the little, colorfull houses and beach bars, it filled my brain with great memories.

I've got no idea how this beach got 4 stars. It's awful! No sunbeds, tents or umbrellas, no showers. Shallow water, buoys are just 3 meters from the sand. And 20 minutes walk from the bus stop.

The beach is nice, close to the park, the water is clean, but people lack education - they leave garbage on the beach and cigarette butts. Google shows access through areas that are closed, you have to walk a lot from the main road.

Beautiful beach with park. A pathway is stretched along the coast of the rocky beach with 2 crescent-like sand beaches. Amazing to visit and watch the sunset. Also relatively close to the mall.

Nice beach, not far from the city center with big park and walking area around. The water is clean and there are toilets too.

+ The beach has a beautiful view and is safe for swimming (no sea waves as it's a lagoon), there's a toilet, park and basketball court and exercise equipment nearby. Few food kiosks and an arcade are located within 10 minute walking distance. - BUT there's no cabin for changing!!! How!! Where do local residents change after swimming though?

Best Beach ever i like it beautiful view not crowded

The beach itself is nice and free. Very popular with locals, lots of families and kids around who are jumping and splashing the water. Not a relaxing beach experience. Very busy.

We had to pay 100 lira on a Saturday to get into the beach. The sand was covered in cigarettes and plastic but the sand was nice and soft. We swam in the water for an hour and enjoyed it. Lots of algae and seaweed but we got used to it - it’s natural. The swimming area is pretty small. They have bathrooms, a shower and changing rooms they’re just not very nice and smell. If they cleaned up the beach and improved the facilities it could be a great beach

We didn't get charged like others have complained about, but this is not a well cared for beach front. The concrete sidewalk is caving in, and the beachfront is quite small. Perhaps I was there at high tide? There are some good restaurants in the area but if you're coming for the beach, keep moving on.

It’s cheaper than the other beaches, 60 TL on weekdays (bring change cuz if they don’t have it it will just be awkward until you say “keep it it’s fine”) The toilets and sun beds are in very bad condition. The beach is clean enough, but not good for swimming as you can only go a bit further before the lifeguards start blowing the whistle. Recommend if you have small kids, if not, don’t expect to swim there. Oh also no good food to buy there, but before

pros: you can swim in the sea cons: everything that you paid for was bad. dirty toilets, dirty dressings rooms, unusably bad shower (one showerhead, that barely drips any water), barely any shade its as expensive as any other one, but by far the worst. go to any other one in Kilyos.

Entrance fee was 70 TL. Clear water and Sandy sea side were the positive points about there. When you pay money you expect some facilities and services, but you should pay for entrance and .....! You have to pay 30TL for one 30cl bottle of beer it means for buying something you should pay double normal price. I don't recommend.

Weekday entry ticket is 60 Liras per person (July 2022). Services include about 6 changing boxes, horrible toilets, some showers, and especially hyperactive lifeguards who will prevent you to go further than about 8 meters from the shore (and on some parts it is much less than 8 meters). At that distance is water at your knees, so swimming is absolutely impossible. If you want to swim and to enyoy the Black sea, chose another beach without hyperprotective guards. Deckchairs are in rather poor conditions as well as the sunshades. Sea is quite clean, but don't be surprised that sometimes you can encounter a jellyfish. The beach itself is clean, yes, there is a wrapper here or there, but it is not worse than any beach in Italy or Spain. In summary, Non Stop Beach is a good option for families with small children but not for someone who wants to do any water sport. I chosed the lowest rating because I did not enjoyed the stay here at all.

The worst beach I've ever entered in my life! It's so dirty, you can't even see the sand because of the cigarettes All the sun beds are broken Full of uneducated people, they are just throwing trash all over the place No one is making lines, i can say it's just a pure mess!!

Very lovely beach, everyone minds his own business Visited on weekend, not very crowded as other comments say, like literally the whole area is a beach area you will always find an empty spot Just one negative thing, the beach line was full of algae guess this is nature, it can be cleaned though

Beautiful place and sea, but the beach is incredibly dirty. Tons of cigarette butts, plastic and household garbage that no one removes, like algae along the entire beach area. A separate word about the rental of sun loungers and umbrellas. The company that provides these services is extremely unprofessional, both in particular for employees (being rude) and in terms of inventory (chaise lounges: coffee covered, dirty, old; umbrellas torn, shabby;). Strongly do not recommend.

Used to be great. Now sand is full of garbage. (Municipality used to clean whole seaside sand at the morning ) also there are full of sunbeds which requires money to use and you can't find nice place to put your beach towel and rest. Every corner is taken by little companies which is like mafia. You wouldn't even wanted to hear immigrants on the beach. I live here and I hate to visit the beach

One of the more humble and somewhat cozy places to visit in Istanbul. You may have some nice street food as well as slightly overpriced Kumpir in the restaurants around. If you don't mind the drive from inner parts of the city, this place might be worth the visit every now and then with the family.

Like it in winter more ..

Nice and calm place. Parking is a challenge and it does not have an easy access.

Good place to relax

Very nice

Love it

(Translated by Google) Sedef Island is the smallest of the island group known as Istanbul's Princes' Islands, located in the Sea of ​​Marmara. With a surface area of ​​approximately 0.157 km², it stands out for its natural beauty, tranquil atmosphere, and historical past. Due to its limited population density, it has a much quieter and more untouched appearance than the other islands. It was once used as a place of exile during the Ottoman period. Today, it stands out as a resting and peaceful area where private properties predominate, summer houses, and natural vegetation are preserved. There are no ferries to the island; residents access it from Kartal Pier and Büyükada by boat, presumably belonging to the island. Smoking is strictly prohibited on the island. Please note that this is due to the risk of fire. (Original) “Sedef Adası, İstanbul’un Prens Adaları olarak bilinen ve Marmara Denizi’nde yer alan ada grubunun en küçüğü olup, yaklaşık 0,157 km² yüzölçümü ile özellikle doğal güzellikleri, sakin atmosferi ve tarihi geçmişiyle dikkat çeker; yerleşimin sınırlı olması nedeniyle diğer adalara göre çok daha sessiz ve bakir bir görünüme sahip olan bu ada, zamanında Osmanlı döneminde sürgün yeri olarak da kullanılmış, günümüzde ise özel mülkiyetlerin ağırlıkta olduğu, yazlık evlerin ve doğal bitki örtüsünün korunduğu bir dinlenme ve huzur alanı olarak öne çıkmaktadır.” Adaya herhangi bir vapur gitmemektedir ada sakinleri Kartal iskelesinden ve büyük adadan sanırım adaya ait olan bir tekne ile ulaşım sağlamaktadır. Ada’da kesinlikle sigara içmek yasak buna dikkat edelim yangın riskinden dolayı bunu yapmaktalar.

Marhaba 👋 I wanted to share with you the wonderful view that greeted me on my recent ferry ride to Prince Island. While I wasn't planning on spending much time in the area we passed by, it looked like a lovely place for a stroll, especially since I saw many people swimming in the crystal-clear water. If you're planning on visiting this area, I highly recommend bringing your own swimming accessories as prices for such items on the islands can be quite steep.

First of all, this cove and island is really beautiful. But this beach club is so gross, outdated and they are over charging. *they only take cash* and you have to walk about 10-12 mins down the hill to get to the beach. We also didn’t see a bathroom. I personally would t recommend this place

Nice, relatively quiet beach that is not too hard to reach, although only by foot; on the north, there is a sign by the road that leads to the beach at 20 minutes' walk from the harbour, and from the south there is a clearer path, closer to a bus stop. There is a lot of garbage on the beach and in the water and the pebbles are not comfortable to sit on. But it is a nice place to get away from the crowds in the city

The beach itself is nice. Water is mostly clean, but there some moss and seaweed. No sand, but there are no sand beaches in this area, so don’t expect that. Part of the beach is reserved for those who wish to rent sun beds and beach umbrellas. This part was the dirtiest both onshore and in the water. Expect to pay tourist prices ~300-500 lira per bed. The beds are plastic and quite uncomfortable. Kind staff and there is a small kiosk where you can buy refreshments. Don’t use the toilet unless absolutely necessary!

The beach has a very pretty view but it's a very rocky beach. If you don't have proper gear, like watershoes, you can easily cut or bruise yourself or slip. The hike down is also kind of steep and slippery (I went after a rainy day). Regardless, the sunset was beautiful and had a wonderful time!

A perfectly decent beach. It’s rocky, but the water is clean and refreshing. I’m assuming that all the people who leave negative reviews have never been to Skegness.

Beautiful beach, wasn’t crowded at all when we went there (mid-May), just locals and us. Beer was 40try at the little beach bar and they had free sun beds all over the beach. Beware of the jellyfish, there are quite a few of them at the shore but I did not get stung by any when I even touched them by accident. A local told us that they are harmless but it’s never wrong to be careful. Lots of cats on the island, keep in mind to check when the last ferry goes back to Istanbul/wherever you need to go!

For a paid beach (200TL per person) I would expect a cleaner beach with no algae and with soft sands. You are also not allowed to bring your own food. No swings there as some pictures showed a swing. I loved the stones. They are not rough.

Uzunya: one of the good getaway points from the city. Pros: beach is nice ,in summer very crowded You can have beers etc. There is good meatballs, bbq served Cons: also the entrance fee for beach and parking fees are too high enough to change your mind and get back where you came from.(applies in summer period) The restaurant has also very different price policy please ask before the prices before you order avoiding late minute surprises.

Contrary to most unbearable beaches in Turkey where you have to live with loud music at Uzunya they not play any music. In other words this is "Heaven on Earth" especially distance-wise..

An outstanding beach. We paid 60TRY per head for entry, which was reasonable when taking into account the grassed rest area, bean bags, safe supervised cove for swimming and diving platform. No picnicking allowed, but the Restaurants offer a variety good food at Istanbul prices.

A best place in Kilyos~ we loved there so much~

Very nice place, i luv it, good for family and safety 200 tl for entry, under 11 free

The entry fee of 300 TL is absolutely ridiculous. Even in France and Italy paid beaches are usually cheaper and cleanliness and services are much better. And what is more important - in Europe there is always a free public beach near the paid one. But here there are no any free beaches for miles and miles around this part of Black Sea coast.

(Translated by Google) We went there years ago, and it's still the same, the seaweed is never cleaned, there's no place to swim. If you were a little more well-maintained, you would be the cleanest and most accessible beach in Sarıyer. Please, let's pay attention to cleanliness from now on because it's very difficult for women to find the beach. (Original) Seneler önce gitmiştik hala aynı yosunlar hiç temizlenmiyor yüzülecek alan yok gerçekten biraz daha bakımlı olsanız sarıyerin en temiz ve ulaşılabilir plajı olucaksınız lütfen temizliğe önem verelim artık çünkü kadınlar plajı bulması çok zor

(Translated by Google) They're scamming people under the guise of being conservative. They're not conservative at all. Men kept passing us by in boats and canoes. One even waved at us as he passed. They're not worth your money. Furthermore, when I brought this up with the man at the door, he listened to us through his gum, completely ignoring us. Friends, you can go to Elmasburnu/Riva instead of here. (Original) Muhafazakar adı altında insanları dolandırıyorlar. Muhafazakar falan değil. Önümüzden erkekler gemilerle kanolarla geçip durdular. Hatta bir tanesi önümüzden geçerken bize el salladı. Paranızı vermenize değmez. Ayrıca bu sorunu kapıdaki adama dile getirince adam ağzındaki sakızla bizi ciddiye almadan dinledi. Arkadaşlar burası yerine Elmasburnu/Riva'ya gidebilirsiniz.

(Translated by Google) I have been coming for 15 years, clean the algae, there is no longer any place to go over the top, the mushroom area is very algae, there is no swimming area at all, if the mushroom rope is too loose, the water is like a children's sea, if you clean the algae, at least there will be an area to swim. Or if you don't clean it, let's swim outside the mushroom (Original) 15 yıldır geliyorum şu yosunlari bi temizleyin artık boy aşan yer yok mantar bölgesi asiri yosunlu yüzme alanı asla yok mantar ipi asiri gevsek zaten cocuk denizi gibi su yosunlari temizleseniz en azindan yuzulecek alan olusur. Ya da temizlemiyosaniz birakin mantar disinda yuzelim

(Translated by Google) It's definitely not a place to come to, especially the woman who arranges customers over the phone, definitely don't trust her, friends, it's a terrible place. I read the comments, the woman said a lot of things, the comments were lies, so I came here because I've never seen such a disgraceful place in my life. (Original) Kesinlikle gelinecek bir her değil hele de bu telefondan buraya müşteri ayarlayan kadın kesinlikle güvenmeyin arkadaşlar berbat Bi yer ben yorumları okumuştum kadın bir sürü şey söyledi yorumlar yalan falan diye bende geldim hayatımda bu kadar rezalet Bi yer görmedim

(Translated by Google) I've never seen such a dirty sea in my life. I don't recommend it. They know how to charge 700 lira for entry, but everywhere is dirty. I wear a hijab and men keep passing us by on boats. So why do I come to the women's beach? What a ridiculous thing to do. Don't come here. I don't recommend it at all. (Original) hayatımda bu kadar pis bir deniz görmedim asla tavsiye etmiyorum giriş için 700 lira ücret almayı biliyorlar ama her yer pis, ben tesettürlüyüm ve yanımızdan sürekli tekne ile adamlar geçip durdu o zaman ben niye kadın plajına geliyorum bu ne saçma iş. Sakın gelmeyin asla önermiyorum

(Translated by Google) Neither umbrellas nor sunbeds are provided. The sea is very dirty. They charge 700 liras but why is it charged? There is no service at all. You are swimming on the shore anyway. I definitely do not recommend it. (Original) Ne şemsiye veriliyo ne şezlong denizi çok pis 700 lira para alınıyo ama ne için alınıyo hiç bi şekilde hizmet yok kıyıda yüzüyosunuz zaten kesinlikle tavsiye etmiyorum

(Translated by Google) The beaches belong to the public, no fee is charged at the entrance, read the law and know your rights. They may charge for the service inside, not just for the entrance. (Original) Sahiller halkındır girişte para alınamaz açın kanun okuyun haklarınızı bilin, içerdeki hizmete para isteyebilir sadece girişe değil

Foreigners are advised not to visit here most especially Africans..this guys are racist they aim to rip off foreigners

It is not a friendly place to foreigners..The employees are very bad people

Not foreigner friendly

(Translated by Google) Good but a little expensive and there are fees for parking (Original) جيد لكنه باهظ الثمن قليلا وهناك اجور لموقف السيارات

The best place in Kınalıada by all means. Delicious food, amazing location, lovely staff. My favorite getaway place from Istanbul for 10 years. They just keep getting better every year.

Lovely relaxing afternoon. We looked at the cheaper facilities but they definitely were not up to the same standard. We paid 500tl for two people and thought we got excellent value. Salad was the best I have had in 7 weeks travelling around Turkey, service great - nothing to complain about.

The food was very tasty - we had grilled sea bass, it was wonderful. But! waiters were just a disaster. The restaurant was almost empty, but we waited for anyone more than 10 min. No one offered us drinks or menus. I even had to talk to the manager, cause only she spoke English well.

Very peaceful, nice, clean Cafe, restaurant, and beach with great staff and very good food. The water is really clear but the beach is all rocky. Just so you know. Oh, and if you are going for the sun and sea, the loungers are half price on weekdays. The seafood is a tad on the pricey side, but the rest of the menu is reasonably priced compared to similar places. Overall, the food is fresh and delicious.

Teos is a true gem! By day, it’s a vibrant beach club where you can relax on a sunbed, swim in the sea, and enjoy delicious lunch and cocktails—everything served with a smile. In the evening, it transforms into a beautiful seaside restaurant with a fantastic selection of fresh fish and other dishes. The atmosphere is magical, the service is top-notch, and it’s perfect for both locals and visitors. Highly recommended!

One of the best places in prince islands. Very secluded and on its own. Sometimes a little full but reservations will do you good. It’s a good place for raki and balik. If you come by boat there are also places to moor your boat in front of the place.

It is the only place open in winter. The beach is beautiful and located 600 meters from the pier. In hot weather, walking might be difficult, so you may prefer to take a vehicle.

When entering the beach our bags were rudely searched, our food was taken away and all our drinking water was poured out. Because of this the impression of the service was spoiled. The staff walked around and made sure that no one ate anything of their own and did not drink from their own containers. The water in the pool is very salty and it seems that the sides of the pool are smeared with something strange, because a slight allergy appeared on the body after touching the sides. The entrance is 800 lira on the weekend, but we could not get to the beach on Sunday, there were simply no places and the music was terribly loud. So we had to go back on a weekday and this experience was completely ruined due to the terrible service.

Perfect end to our time in Turkey. Dashed to a ferry at the last minute to head to Kinaliada to escape the crowds and noise of Istanbul. I’ll try and find where to post more about the island in general elsewhere. We ended up at Noya beach because we wanted to go for a walk. So we started out walking counter clockwise around the west side of the island. Was the wiser move (see the other reviewer about which way not to walk:). When we got back to the dock we noticed that the resort had a desk there and we had seen their electric cart pass us while we were walking. So if you really don’t want to walk.. (no idea if there is an additional cost though). It cost us 750 TRY ($25 Canadian) to use the resort which included lounge, umbrella and use of both the protected beach area and the swimming pool. Best money spent. Yes there is a free beach area adjacent but all the beaches on the island are rocky and we didn’t have any water shoes. The resort has pontoons which enable entry to the water (to either the open water or a pontoon protected area) without having to dance on the rocks. And then we could lounge on the lounges and shower before changing for our walk back. We also ate there. Yes a little expensive for what we ate (a salad and a “fry” pack”) but given that everything would have to be ferried to the island, was perfectly reasonable. And would argue that this is the best beach on the island. On the other “dock” side were narrow beaches with chairs jammed in “like an infirmary” (as another reviewer said:). So if you want to escape the crowds and swim, Noya beach is the pick. And if you want to spoil yourself a bit.. choose the resort. As others noted: no towels. This would have made it 5 star (we had our own pack towel)

I recently visited Noya Beach and overall, I had a pleasant experience. The atmosphere is great, and the staff (except for one incident) were incredibly helpful and friendly. They offer a convenient transfer service, and the team was always ready to assist, even helping with our baby stroller every time we needed it. However, there were a couple of downsides. There was a particularly rude staff member—a muscular guy—who was harshly searching through guests' bags for food and even shouted at some of them. It was really off-putting. Additionally, the music at the beach was excessively loud, to the point where several guests, including myself, found it uncomfortable. Another issue was the pool water, which wasn’t as clear as I expected. Despite these concerns, the majority of the staff were wonderful, and the overall vibe of the place is nice. With a few improvements, Noya Beach could be an even better destination.

It’s a peaceful place , it’s totally free and no charges of just visiting, if you wanna take a place seat towel or something like that you gotta pay , otherwise there’s no entry fees , not many people around , you can do swimming in summers as well , there’s no sand beech but yea it has activities like you can collect seashells there , you can also do BBQ , the view is great surrounded by mountains and sea infront , there are cafes restaurant private swimming pool and restrooms as well , the beech is located on Kinaliada , one of the islands of Istanbul, you can go to the island by taking a ship from Istanbul, preferably from kadikoy bostanci or uskudar , you gotta take off of the first island, Kinaliada , it’s better if you walk on the island from there to the opposite side to reach Noya beech , the view on the way is great and also some old turkish style houses with many types of flowers , I visited the place the day it was a bit windy , the place is best for sunny day ,

Staff were friendly and attentive. We swam in the sea, and ate the margarita Pizza and Noya Burger which were all really tasty. The watermelon and melon slices were also really refreshing. It’s a good beach club and a nice escape from the bustle of the city. The toilets were a bit smelly upon approach but they were kept clean by the cleaning staff.

I recently spent some time at Noya Beach and it was an absolutely fantastic experience. The vibe is incredible, very relaxed and welcoming. The entire staff was so kind and attentive, always making sure everyone was having a good time. A special shout-out to Sabrina, who was wonderful. She was so friendly and provided great service, really adding to the positive atmosphere. I highly recommend Noya Beach for anyone looking for a beautiful spot with genuinely good people.

An oasis in Istanbul. I love coming here. When you consider the prices hotels charge to use their pools in Istanbul this place is incredibly reasonable. The site is well maintained, fantastic pool, the staff are lovely. It’s in a cove so the sea is calm and good to swim in. I come here regularly in the summer and would recommend.

It’s exactly as you would expect it to be as a public beach. It’s a huge area. Entrance fee is 30 tl. Very crowded. Send is dirty. The water was full of algae. Parking is 100 tl but as we stayed less then 30 min, we didn’t pay

Don't give this beach a miss. Beautiful place to swim on the blacksea coast. Small town with adequate stores and a clean bathing change room area. Clean and not overcrowded.

Wonderful place with amazing view and its cleeeeeeaaaaaan , but it’s need coffee shop

Very nice place for swimming and great view where the river and the sea connects super clean

There are services but the beach is popular and the sea is not very clean

It’s a very small village about one hours driving from Istanbul has an excellent beach bars restaurants very Turkish

Very nice beach, you can swim in blacksea in Istanbul.

The place is beautiful but it is far and takes time to reach and the coast is not very clean

Very nice beach. But be aware - only cards or Istanbul card are valid. No cash.

The place was nice. Beach timings were 9 am till 3pm, but those timings are extremely hot to visit. By evening it was good, food kiosks and mall was at a walking distance. The mall it self had amazing views and amazing food options!

Amazing place to watch the sunset, walk, and cycling as well. Green Area and the beach.. wonderful views.

Nothing better! Very calm place with lots of greenery. The sea view is fascinating. We enjoyed the cargo planes landing in Ataturk airport behind the park (see the video)

Wonderful place and sunset view. I recommend to visit to those with fine taste and natur lovers. Suitable for families, with green gardens, children's games, bikes and scooter rentals. Restaurants and cafeteria.

Very nice seaside park with beautiful views and nice greenery, one of my favorite parks overall and very suitable place to relax and watch the sunset from there, i wish for more care to the park and i wish for more maintenance as well, other than that i highly recommend it.(Some of the photos are taken from 2019)

The beach was closed it was in September so we entered at our own safety there was no life guard and no fee and no changing room we had to change in a nearby bathroom, the water was clean and cold

Very dirty beach. Full of seaweed and trash. Don’t waste your time! I traveled almost 3 hours from central Istanbul and completely regretted it. Total disappointment and not worth the trip.

Beach heavily polluted with algae. Be careful. I caught an infection here Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Very dirty beach, and the park near the beach was also very dirty. Almost all the sunbeds were broken. All the good reviews were from a few years ago, but now, unfortunately, the beach has been transformed into a junkyard. Everywhere you look on the beach, there are cigarette butts, paper, and plastic bottles scattered in the sand.

➕Affordable price: 10 TL per chair and 10 TL for an umbrella ➕An almost clean beach ➕Has two small takeaway cafes, one of them just has some drinks, the other one has snacks, mini burgers and one or two more things ( snacks 7 TL, can juice 4 TL) ➕lifeguards are there to protect ➖Small changing rooms ➖public baths ➖Do not rent an umbrella when it's windy cause it doesn't stay in one place and you have to watch it all the time:)) ⛱

No the cleanest beach but it is in reach thanks to it's central location Should have been kept cleaner since it is privately owned and not free.

Nothing good about it, dirty beach with cigarettes, plastic and food everywhere

On 28th September the umbrellas and seats where already gone but also the paying. Free entrance to the beach which is nice but has a lot of old cigarettes in the sand. Water was clean and some plants growing in it. Watch out for broken glass there to not step into it. Some people don’t know how to leave a place in a good way and therefore some damaged bottles lye around

Pretty nice paid beach. Lots of lounge chairs and umbrellas available, even on a Saturday. Clean sand and clean water, snacks and drinks available on premises, life guard on duty. Cordoned off swimming area was pretty narrow and not too deep, but enough to swim in

Access is 120 lira that you can pay by Istanbulkart or by any credit card. You can then use any available chairs and umbrella. The beach is sandy but narrow. There are algae and stones in the water. The water temperature is still quite cold in late June. To drink and eat you have a beach bar with normal prices. There are cabins where you can change your clothes and some showers, but no toilet that I could see.

The beach is very busy on holidays, 30 lira for a sunbed and 30 lira for an umbrella, dirty changing room, near the beach park, I suggest you use the beach park to relax, it is very energetic. This beach is much better than Floria beach

Good sunset views

It's littered with garbage. ,

It's very nice place to enjoy your time and sun

Beautiful venue and full of great vibes. You will have fun here that is certain

It is a good and beautiful place where music festivals are held. The space is a little small. But the air conditioning is good. They keep the jacket at a cost of twenty liras so that we can be comfortable during the ceremony.

A babylon of drink, dance and meeting people in Istanbul! For me more than a five star place in the town. When u enter you suddenly realize that this is a lovely spot for international people and tourists so you can meet them or a group of friends having a nice dance and drink reunion! Different choices of food and drink provided by well differentiated restaurant corners. I wonder to come here frequently anytime I visit Istanbul! Enjoy the vibe! What a vibe!

Hidden place (old factory) with amazing vibe! The decorations, foods, lights, everything is super prefect. Also the stuff is super friendly.

Islandman live :) great place, perfect for such concerts. They stop selling tickets once the place is full. So buy ahead or come earlier.

We went there when Omar Suleiman had make a party, the place was great, energetic crowd, the place look like old beer factory, Great Sound and lighting quality, All respect to professional crew there.

Very fun. You can have drinks (beer), dance and meet new people.

1. Bring crocs/thongs/water shoes. 2. Go to the end of the beach past the sun lounges. (FREE!) 3. Enjoy! Clear water, not too much rubbish compared with other beaches around the islands.

Nice beach with friendly personal, clean water, good prices - 250 liras for two beds and umbrella, they have tea and coffee and some soft drinks. We had a great time.

400 lira per person. 800 for two including one umbrella, that does only cover one bed. Not very nice actually. I am not sure if they ask everyone the same price…be aware.

the sea is worm , we enjoyed a lot the place also the sea is clear I recommend a lot this place

This is a good place to have a walk, and possibly even cycle. On a sunny day it will be quite enjoyable. That said, it could get pretty windy and too uncomfortable to walk. Cafes and restaurants here are average, and prices are a bit high.

Public place with minimum comfort but great sea

We took the reliable and on-time buses from Uskudar with one transfer to here, completing an along-the-coast journey to experience the local life. It is a pebble beach at the mouth of the Black Sea. Almost all visitors are local and friendly. The view is not extraordinary but the immersive experience is unforgettable. We had to catch the 6 PM bus back to Istanbul so we missed the sunset, which should be breathtaking. The last bus departing for the City is 9:30 PM, according to a lady who took a bus to swim here.

Beautiful place in Istanbul

amazing view

(Translated by Google) Anadolufeneri beach, although it has wonderfully shallow waters, is not preferred by families because it is rocky. There are three separate bays and you can access it if you pass through the foothills of the mountains. The municipality has not been interested in the roads, environment and cleaning of this place for 50 years. There are areas where marriage proposals can be made and people who do it. (Original) Anadolufeneri plaji, harika sığ suları olsa da taşlık olmasından ötürü aileler tarafından pek tercih edilmiyor. Üç ayrı koy mevcut ve dağların eteklerinden geçebilirseniz erişebiliyorsunuz. Belediye buranın yol, çevre ve temizliği ile 50 yıldır ilgilenmiyor. Evlilik teklifi edilecek alanlar ve yapanlar mevcut.

(Translated by Google) On Sunday, those who are looking for a quiet place can come. You may be exposed to the sound of music due to the marriage proposal organization. Great for watching the sunset on the rocky beach.. (Original) Pazar günü, sessiz bir yer arayanlarım gelebileceği bir yer evlenme teklifi organizasyonu nedeniyle müzik sesine maruz kalabilirisiniz. Kayalıklardan oluşan plajda gün batımını izlemek için harika..

(Translated by Google) Anadolu Feneri Beach is truly one of those rare places so close to Istanbul yet so far from the city. Today, I went swimming here, took a short tour in my own inflatable kayak with my friend, and then finished the day with a small picnic. The sea was quite clean compared to the Black Sea, and the waves were moderate, but it's wise to be careful. The beach is quiet and surrounded by nature, making it ideal for those looking to escape the crowds—until it blew up on Instagram. Don't forget to bring an umbrella, chairs, and food and drinks; there are businesses nearby. I highly recommend it for those looking for a natural escape. Don't forget to throw your trash in the trash cans. 🌿🚣‍♂️🌊 (Original) Anadolu Feneri Plajı gerçekten İstanbul’a bu kadar yakın olup şehirden bu kadar uzak hissettiren nadir yerlerden biri. Bugün burada denize girdim, kendi şişme kanomla kısa bir tur yaptık arkadaşımla ve ardından küçük bir piknikle günü tamamladık. Deniz Karadeniz’e göre oldukça temizdi, dalgalar orta seviyedeydi ama dikkatli olunmasında fayda var. Sahil kısmı sakin ve doğayla iç içe, kalabalıktan kaçmak isteyenler için çok idealdi taa ki burası instagram mecrasında patlayana kadar. Yanınıza şemsiye, sandalye ve yiyecek içecek almayı unutmayın; çevrede işletme var. Doğal bir kaçış noktası arayanlara kesinlikle tavsiye ederim. Çöplerinizi çöp konteynırlarına atmayı unutmayın🌿🚣‍♂️🌊

We were looking forward to a nice sandy beach but instead walked into a dusty beach that looks like a construction site. As you walk into the ocean it is impossible to dodge the small and sharp rocks, and the water doesn’t go deep enough to just swim. Cafeteria is basic. Staff were really nice but unfortunately would not pay 500 TL to go back there

This place is a huge scam in my opinion. This beach is pointed as public in google maps, but is fully private and costs 20€ a person to get in. Bus trip costs 93 LT a person (only one-way). Do not expect to find any public beach on any of these islands. Water here is also full of seaweed and sand on the beach filled with pieces of glass.

We spent two days at the beach and really enjoyed our time. You’ll pay 400TL on weekdays per person and get a sunbed and umbrella. It’s one of the few sandy beaches which we really liked. Also there were two lifeguards and they were very attentive. Two things that could be better: squad toilets for the ladies which weren’t in the cleanest condition. And some mattresses for the sunbeds. Overall we really liked it!

I couldn’t decide which beach to go to because you can find bad reviews about all of them 😂 so I went there a bit cautiously. I went on Friday and arrived around 1:30 PM. The full-day sunbed rental with access to all facilities cost 400 TL. I tried to negotiate, but no luck :( They also said there’s no option to “just swim in the sea without using a sunbed” — the only choice is to pay 400 TL and use everything freely. The beach actually has some quiet and peaceful spots. I first chose a sunbed near the entrance, but the neighbors were very loud, so I easily moved to the far end of the beach and enjoyed peace and calm there. This is a huge plus that you can freely change sunbeds. The sea was lovely. Some parts have almost no rocks, while others are a bit rockier — but overall, it was great. Surprisingly, the food was really tasty! I had a hamburger and some tea. The prices were also quite reasonable — hamburger was 250 TL, tea 20 TL. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. I felt really comfortable. Overall, I liked everything. Yes, 400 TL isn't the cheapest, but compared to a wild beach, you can really feel what you’re paying for. Thank you for a lovely experience 🤍

We paid 600 TL per person, which included a sunbed and umbrella. Unfortunately, the sunbeds were very dirty and disorganized, and most of the umbrellas were broken and scattered on the ground. There was no staff around to assist or manage the area. Also, there was an aggressive stray cat on the premises that actually scratched and injured customers,which was very concerning. They offer a 50% discount for students, which is appreciated — but overall, the experience was quite disappointing and didn’t match the price paid.

Random woman named Heti asking for a for a entrance fee of 200 lira per person. Once we objected she directed us to the cafe and we ended up paying 150 lira per person. What did we pay for you may ask? We paid for the use of the disgusting squatting toilet. After using the toilet, now where do you wash your hands you may ask? As there was no running water. With our dirty hands we had to run to the sea and use the sea water to wash our hands. Now the question is, are our hands more dirtier than before. After making a fuss and using the entire bottle of hand sanitiser we made a prompt exit. Do not come here as the beach, the people and the facilities are nasty. My 1 star equates to 0 stars!

The worst beach ever! You shouldn’t go there if you expect clean sand,good service and nice rest. Definitely not recommend.

It's nice place as many other nearby restaurants, but more expensive than most restaurants around. Also, meat especially Kabab and kofta are too tough to cut, sometimes because it's not fresh or too long frozen, or cooking way. Portions are small.

Good size portion and if you are not targeting for upscale restaurant, then good place to jump in. Meat was tasty, rice was not warm enough. Service, nothing to complaign about. Tip is included in bill.

Very friendly staff, tasty food. Not too expensive compared to the surrounding restaurants. Great outdoor seating.

I give two stars, because the view was nice and the staff was welcoming and friendly. The service, along with the meal and price was horrid. My girlfriend and I had lunch here in December of 2017. I ordered a Turkish style ravioli with minced meat inside, instead what I got was ravioli drenched in plain yogurt with what seemed like single beans on the inside. The overpowering taste of yogurt destroyed the dish and when I addressed the host, the response was "that's the Turkish style". After asking other Turkish restaurant owners, I got told that I was ripped off and that the authentic one is nothing near what I got, nor near the price I paid. We were fooled by the view and friendliness. The experience in my opinion is really not worth it.

Americans beware. They will rip you off. Man that looks like manager or maybe even owner was rude and saw i was done and wanted my check, I asked. He continued to stand around the bar and do nothing. He speaks English so I thought maybe he'd be nice. Boy was I wrong. I ordered chicken cabobs and glass of orange juice. Total price 53TL price he charged my card 92.40TL He was lucky I had an appointment on the Asian side soon because otherwise I would have demanded my 40 TL he blatantly stole from me. This just happened today. Also highest priced restaurant I've been to so far. And I've eaten at a restaurant every night.

I have to say I was a little disappointed by this restaurant. The man who served us was very nice and all the staff in general were polite but the food was lacking in quality. The chicken wings and the chicken kebabs were cold and had a burnt taste to them, the calamari was buried under mounds of oily batter and the chips were drenched in oil too. The place was also very cold an we sat there shivering until we asked to move to a spot near the heater. The service was slow and we got our food very late considering there were only two groups of people there. Lastly the bill was enormous. 400 Tl (lira) equivelant to £100 for a somewhat lousy dinner. Their attitude was good but their food leaves room for improvement :(

The best place to have sea food in Istanbul. Very friendly staff, they even play the music you like. Delicious deserts and even better Turkish coffee and all of that while having this beautiful view.

A generous three stars. Have to get a little bus from the port, 15 mins and then another 25 minute walk and then some really steep steps down. 300 lari entry. Not sure a beach would say more like a pier with sun beds. Sea was rough with lots of Algae and rubbish.

We visited  the plajı in July, the entrance fee was 700 TL, includes a chair and an umbrella. The beach itself is beautiful and okay not fancy, just average and has a shower and changing cabinets. There were many people and kids swimming it was fun and safe However, we had one issue at the snack/drinks kiosk, we ordered some drinks and chips, but then changed our minds in the same moment, asking for just chips and water. The staff had already prepared everything before confirming with us!🫤 Worst of all, the cashier was extremely rude and unprofessional!!! When we tried to adjust the order politely, she literally kicked the papers and slammed the cash register like a child! 💀😭 She should be fired cause you're getting paid from us not the other way around with this attitude!! And you're working at a spot where everyone should be relaxed! We paid and took the order with no adjustment and left because we were too relaxed to be bothered from such a person with anger issues 🤣 get some help honestly ..

We stayed for one afternoon here. Yes you have to go down the stone stairs, but you can also access the beach via boat shuttle. The price is 500TL per person and you’ll get a sunbed and umbrella. It’s a stone beach, but definitely okay for a afternoon.

Nice beach, clean water. A lot of sun beds and umbrellas. You can get here by ferry, 1/2 hour ride. Ferry and beach enterance is 4-5 euro. For this price you get free umbrella and 2 sun bed. Beer is 3 euro, coffee 2,5 euro. Ferry goes back every hour, and price is included. Beach has public toillet, showers and all paths are layed with wood panels. Verry good for day on the beach, away from Istanbul noise and crowd.

A beach that is open a bit earlier in June 2024. Entry was 300 lari and good prices for drinks. Does take a bit of time to get down to the beach.

Please don’t even try to go here!! The rude guy who “owns” the beach tries to overcharge. 1000 TL for 2 persons, that’s crazy. There is a nice beach for free near here.

DONT COME HERE!!! Extremely bad attitude fat guy who thinks he "owns" a natural beach, charges you more than 500lira just to enter and extra for the sunbeds, if you think about coming to this place. Don't. Go down the road 10 minutes and you will find a nice private beach which is free and doesn't have greedy scammers trying to take your money for nature.

Nice to be here
