Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Despot beach (Canakkale) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Despot beach (Canakkale) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Despot beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.

If you plan to visit the beach during winter, it is advisable to have a 4WD due to the poor road conditions. In case of rain, it is best to inquire about the state of the roads. Despite this, the beach is a serene and peaceful haven, located a 15-minute drive from the nearest village. The area is abundant with fig trees, and one of these trees provides ample shade for visitors. If you are seeking a tranquil and uncomplicated getaway, this beach is perfect for you.

I strongly suggest visiting this beach, however, it's important to have the correct coordinates to ensure a smooth arrival. My personal experience camping for four nights was nothing short of amazing. The route leading to the bay is through a forest road, but unfortunately, the governor has prohibited its use due to fire hazards.

This beach is a hidden gem in the region, with a rich history dating back to the Greeks and untouched natural beauty. While the strong winds and chilly waters may pose a challenge for those seeking shelter under an umbrella, it is an ideal spot for camping for a few days. The highlight of the beach is undoubtedly the ancient fig tree that provides ample shade for up to 5 tents. There are two routes to reach the beach - one through Fındıklı Village and the other via Yeniköy. Both routes pass through the village, but it is recommended to use satellite maps for ease of navigation. The transportation is facilitated through fire truck roads created for forest fires. If you choose to take the Yeniköy route, be prepared for a short but bumpy ride - it is advisable to use a high vehicle instead of a car. The Fındıklı Village route is longer, but the road is smoother and more comfortable. Overall, this beach is a must-visit for those seeking a secluded and peaceful getaway amidst nature's splendor.
