I decided to visit Uzunkumu for a peaceful holiday all the way from Germany. It turned out to be a fantastic destination, especially thanks to the assistance of Ekrem Bey, the personnel manager, and Azer Brain. With their help, we were able to set up our first-ever tent and caravan camp. The sea is pristine, and the beach is meticulously cleaned every hour, every day. You can rest assured that the place is well-maintained and safe. I highly recommend visiting this beach, as I guarantee you won't be disappointed.

At the entrance, there is a parking fee of 80 TL. However, we were surprised to hear that they charged a family, whom we assumed to be Russian, 100 TL. The sand is absolutely fantastic and the sea is breathtaking, but unfortunately, there is a major issue. We ventured into the sea for a bit until we noticed the presence of insects, which made it impossible for us to continue. There were insects of various sizes, both large and small. If you don't mind insects, you can enjoy the beauty of the sea without any worries. Luckily, since we visited on a weekday, it was very peaceful.

The beach is quite windy, and there is a parking fee of $25. However, compared to other beaches, it is less crowded and more pristine.

I wouldn't recommend going there due to the extremely bumpy road with hazardous potholes that can damage your car. Additionally, there are only a limited number of sun beds available, and they tend to get taken quickly. The beach lacks any decent facilities, so it's best to avoid it altogether.
