Because it's located in a Syrian refugee zone, you can't drive in. You have to walk 4-5 kilometers. Hot water comes out of the sea, and there's a cave up ahead, and it flows from there. The water is so hot it burns the soles of your feet. You can swim in this water even in winter.

On November 14, 2023, the place that should have been hot was lukewarm. I went in anyway.

It's difficult to get to, but once you get there, it's worth it. It's generally not very crowded and is recommended for nature walks and enjoying the clear sea.

Hot water bubbles up from small caves formed within the coves and rocks here. It's both a sea and a thermal spring.

It's a beautiful bay with both sea and hot spring water. Getting there is a bit of a challenge; you have to walk; the roads are closed; cars and motorcycles are not allowed.
