The location, the geography, the sea are simply magnificent. Whenever we come to this area, we always go and swim. There are no facilities or businesses nearby. There are only showers and cabins. Unfortunately, because barbecues are also held there, and people use it as a recreational area, and many don't take their trash away, much of it has become a garbage dump. I've even written to the Kumluca Municipality: barbecues should be banned in this area.

The sea is very clean, and the view is beautiful, but it's definitely not a place to camp. We stayed on the roadside, where there were showers and cabins. There's also a light and restroom near the mosque a short distance away. But the crowds and the disrespectful, loud noises ruined our sleep. Instead of camping here, it's better to swim here and stay at Mavi Kent Beach further up. There's no light there, and there are restrooms and showers, but it's smelly, but you'll find peace and quiet and sleep well.

I liked it, the sea dwindles quickly, the sandy beach is clean, there are very few waves. You leave the beach and go down to the bottom for 100 meters. There is a shower and changing cabin, but there is no WC.

The sea is beautiful (there are stones, so wearing water shoes is better). It's very easy to get to by car, and the roads are fine. There's no problem. There's a municipality-owned business, and they charge 150 TL for the benches you sit on, but the facility is filthy, unfortunately, people pollute it, and the municipality doesn't clean it very well, and it looks very dirty. There are restrooms, a prayer room, showers, and fountains for use. It's not very busy during the week. So, the municipality charges this fee, but it's hard to understand why, because there aren't many services. Other than that, the atmosphere is beautiful, and the sea is beautiful. There are also parking spaces if it's not too busy.

We went during the week; there are two separate upper terraces, one belonging to the municipality and the other free; I think the municipality one has a freshwater fountain, showers, and a toilet, and there's also parking; someone comes inside and collects the fees from the tables; the first entrance next to the shower is rocky; beyond the big rock on the left, the sea is more beautiful, with small stones and sand; it was calm during the week, the weather was nice, and so was the sea; we had a pleasant time.
