Neither cars nor motorcycles are allowed on this road. It's definitely a place you'll be ashamed of if you go there.

You come from the summer houses, 5 km away from Didim center. The road is nice, 300-400 meters are rocky, but taxis come, the beach is clean, it does not get deep immediately and it is sandy.
There are a few, if not many, fish that want to cast a line.

The bay was quite beautiful. The sea is quite shallow near the shore; if you want it to get deeper, you have to go out a bit further. It generally starts to get crowded after 2 p.m. It's suitable for setting up caravans and tents. If you find a spot under some trees, you can sit. The beach is a bit visible with sea debris from the sea. The sand is nice. The sides of the bay are rocky. The road to the bay is rough. You can easily get there in an SUV. Other vehicles can slowly drive to the edge of the beach. There's no parking; every spot is available. Because there are no businesses, there are no restaurants or showers. It was a beautiful, undiscovered spot.

It's one of the few places where the sunset is truly spectacular. The sea is sandy and doesn't extend nearly the entire length of the bay. It's a great spot for families with children and non-swimmers. The entrance to the sea is a bit weedy, but as you proceed, there's only sand. Fishing is also possible. There's a water treatment plant nearby, so windy weather can create a foul odor. It's also a bit dirty because animals leave their garbage behind. There are no toilets, water, or showers, so come prepared.
