We arrived by ferry from Hereke. We enjoyed our ice cream from an ice cream vendor near the pier. Cash only, just so anyone who wants to buy ice cream knows. The ice cream is delicious. It's currently selling for 20 TL apiece.

There's a cafeteria near the pier, a teacher's house. Teachers and retirees receive a discount. It's an open area under the trees with a pleasant breeze. They only serve coffee. For other drinks, you grab them from the buffet and sit down. It's a busy place, with many retirees and budget-conscious folks here. While many other places offer fly fishing, this garden is quite busy.

If you walk towards Yalova from the pier, there are plenty of fish restaurants. The anchovy sandwich is delicious. It's currently selling for around 200 TL. You can also try the baked halva here. The teas are also delicious. The view and cool outdoor area make it a very pleasant place.

The parking areas seem a bit cramped and small. Since we arrived by ferry, we didn't have any trouble.

As you walk along the inner streets, you'll see the town hall. As you walk there, you'll encounter Gratis, some dessert shops, and small pide shops. Everyone pays attention to the flavor of their menu. We were always satisfied with our meal at any restaurant we visited. There's also a shrine just past the town hall.

If you're looking for a day trip, you can come and enjoy your time. If you're on the Istanbul side, you can use the Hereke Pier. The parking lot there is large and free. The Hereke Pier is also very enjoyable. I recommend returning there for sunset and watching the sunset.

It's a very cute and beautiful place. The coastline is long, there are nice family restaurants where you can eat fish, there are plenty of cafes, there are playgrounds, toilets, a mosque, what more could you want? It's a place where you can have a good time. I compared it to Akçokoca beach. Those who go there will understand me better. It's recommended.

Karamürsel Beach is a prime example of how a seaside area should be open to the public. A green park stretches for kilometers along the shore. Walking, picnicking, and playgrounds are wonderful. Cafes and restaurants don't exploit this pleasure by charging exorbitant prices.

Karamürsel Beach is like a hidden paradise on the shores of the Marmara Sea. The soothing sound of the sea, the wind blowing in the shade of the palm trees, and the azure landscape are all soothing. The view, especially at sunset, is like a painting; time seems to stand still as you watch the sun bid farewell to the sea.

The walking path, bike trails, and recreational areas along the beach are well-maintained. Cleanliness is also meticulously maintained; everything is well-maintained and spotlessly clean. There are playgrounds for families and outdoor sports equipment for those who enjoy exercise.

Cafes and tea gardens also line the shore. Sipping tea overlooking the sea and strolling to the sound of seagulls is a truly unique experience.

It's also a great location for photography enthusiasts. It's possible to capture stunning shots with the combination of nature, sea, and light.

Karamürsel Beach is the ideal spot for anyone looking to unwind, take a walk, or simply sit and contemplate by the sea. It's a tranquil spot you'll definitely want to return to again and again.
