THE BEACHES

The beach of Sarmısaklı, 8 km away, accessible by dolmus, is the most beautiful in the area. It is a large sandy spit that stretches for 4 km south of the town. Don't be afraid of the translation of its name!(Sarmısaklı plaj means "the garlic beach"). The beach is very crowded as it is one of the stops for tour operators and a large part of it is overrun by hotels and restaurants. But if you are willing to walk a bit, you will discover secluded corners like Badavut Bay, further west, where there are small, quieter restaurants.
