There are parking areas at the entrance to the trail. After leaving the car there, we walked the path leading to the cove, which reviews say is quite challenging, but it wasn't at all challenging. After a 4-5-minute walk on the flat path, you're in the cove. I recommend going early in the morning. The cove got very crowded in the afternoon. I think those who couldn't find a place to park their chairs left in the evening or on weekends. On weekday mornings, the cove was practically deserted, with shade from the trees. Tour boats arrive at noon, but they leave after an hour and a half. It's all sand and very clear water. Even if you go just 50 meters, the water is still waist- and chest-deep. The rocky areas at the head and end of the cove become mossy in the evening, but the middle section was crystal clear. It's important to remember that the sea may not be the same every day or time. I'll be adding the early morning desertedness to the images.

We went on Saturday around sunset, and as the crowds thinned out, we easily found a spot. Because of its popularity on Instagram, people say it's crowded, dirty, and littered everywhere, but we didn't encounter anything like that.
You have to park your car and walk to the bay.
The water is so beautiful, sandy and never gets deep. It's very enjoyable to swim.
There are no businesses around, so you have to go with supplies.

The bay was truly beautiful. We went during the afternoon on a weekday, and it wasn't too crowded. The sea is sandy and shallow, crystal clear. It's a great place to visit with children. There are no businesses. The only problem is that it's very difficult to walk from the parking area to the bay. For some reason, they've closed it off with a chain link. It's very tiring to walk along the dirt road in the heat with a camping chair and equipment. But I think the beauty of the sea makes up for it. :)

I don't know who praised this place so much, but we stumbled upon a crowd and had a terrible time, and we ended up leaving without even getting in the sea. There's very little seating on the beach; unless you bring an umbrella, the shaded areas are always full. I couldn't take a picture of the sea, but it was extremely mossy and dirty. It was probably because the sea was rough. The road is a separate issue; it's a shame about the tires. Parking is difficult, and after parking, you have to walk a considerable distance. I didn't like it that much; we liked the Saplı Island side better.

The sea entrance is beautiful, slightly rocky but not disturbing. The roads are rough, but if you're not a beginner, it shouldn't be a problem. Parking can be a bit of a challenge during busy hours, but there's always room to find a spot. The walk from the parking lot to the sea is a bit uncomfortable. The shoreline is narrow, but sitting under the trees is wonderful. I was very pleased to discover a new place, but it's not a place I'd come back for just swimming.
