This snoozy little fishing village snaps to attention on summer weekends, when Istanbul locals arrive in droves to soak up the sun and sand.
The beach here has plenty of family-friendly appeal, with sun loungers and umbrellas for those soaking up the sun, and pedalos for hire if you want to be a little more active.
It's a great place to sample a slice of tourism local-style; the shoreline cafés are packed to the brim with young Turks sipping tea between swims.
