The sea is beautiful, but the environment is very poor. There's serious pollution along the beach. Walking on the sand can get stuck between your toes, along with cigarette butts and bottle caps. The pollution problem at Erikli Beach is quite significant. In fact, this mega-pollution problem is prevalent throughout Edirne. Moreover, in Erikli, it's not just local; it's become a widespread problem. The same problem is also evident in the marketplace and downtown Erikli. This problem can only be solved with municipal support. However, no improvement efforts have been made for years.

I went with my friends at the end of June. The sea is clean but cold. Even if you go 50-60 meters, it doesn't get any taller. The beach is equally beautiful. The sand isn't rocky, just cigarette butts and some trash from people who haven't cleaned up. There's a Migros store just 200 meters away. You can easily find a parking spot for your car. Otherwise, you can easily use the public beach. I think there's a paid beach next door, so you don't even have to pay. The crowd is mostly families. That's why we didn't see any groups causing any trouble. Oh, and there's something that's going to make you sick when you go: ladybugs. Be prepared for that.

It has a beautiful beach with very clean water. Other than that, I don't think it's good. Sunbeds cost ₺500 and are available until 6:00 PM. It might not be worth paying. Also, it would be nice if the surroundings were cleaner and tidier. If you're only coming for the sea, it's worth it.

I'd been hearing a lot about Erikli for a long time, so I wanted to come and see it for myself. The sea is indeed as clean and beautiful as described, and the sand is wonderful. However, it's truly disappointing that such a naturally beautiful beach has such inadequate facilities.

I either couldn't see any showers or they were nonexistent, which is a major shortcoming. Unfortunately, the beach has been polluted by people who have no respect for the environment. I also observed that the municipality doesn't pay enough attention to cleanliness and maintenance.

However, my location being close to Migros was an advantage; I was able to quickly obtain what I needed.

I hope that in the next development, the municipality will make the necessary arrangements and this beautiful nature will get more value it deserves.

Sand, sand, and more sand. The beach is beautiful. Right next to it is a Migros supermarket and lovely cafes. It's a bustling crowd of visitors throughout the day. It's a perfect summer family destination. You can visit with your children. There are many short- and long-term rentals in the immediate area. Simit (Turkish bagel) is sold everywhere, and it's delicious. Come here with your family for a few days and enjoy the sea. Prices aren't expensive.
