Sile Ala Kadinlar Plaji

I have to admit that all the negative comments are accurate. The entry fee is quite expensive and the beach is poorly maintained and messy. It is nothing like what you see in the Instagram pictures. Where do I even begin? During my brief visit, I personally experienced the issues firsthand. The restrooms are very small and inadequate, the shower rooms have broken shower hoses and the water is extremely cold. There are very few changing rooms available and they close around 6pm. The women waiting in line for the toilets and showers were rude and impatient, banging on the doors frantically. Additionally, someone attempted to enter our changing room as the lock was broken. This was our first and unfortunately, our last experience. As foreign tourists, we were recommended this place, but it was incredibly disappointing. It is a shame that the local Şile council authority needs to be notified and an urgent quality and food inspection should be conducted. It seems like this project, funded by the local community, is failing miserably.

This beach is exclusively for women and costs 200 Turkish Lira per person. They have a pool and also provide a restaurant and cafe. The downside is that it's necessary to arrive early to secure a spot, otherwise you'll have to pay to enter but they might inform you that there's no available space, leaving you with no choice but to sit on the sand or wait for an empty chair. It's preferable to bring your own chairs.

This beach is perfect for women. It is clean, the service is good, and the staff is helpful. I will definitely return when I come back to Turkey. Keep up the great work!

We frequently visit a beach near Istanbul that could be described as conservative. It would be beneficial for the management to think about implementing an online reservation system to efficiently handle the crowd, as at 10:00 AM, you can witness numerous people waiting in multiple lines and even getting into arguments over who arrived first. Additionally, they should consider adding more shower rooms and conducting thorough maintenance. Lastly, the food leaves much to be desired. Despite these drawbacks, I still give it a 4-star rating because it remains clean, reasonably priced, and we genuinely enjoy ourselves.

This beach is a lovely, small sandy spot that is exclusively for women, with the exception of boys up to 7 years old. It's a fantastic choice for a day trip to enjoy the beach, especially for those living in Istanbul. To get there, you can take the Şile bus 139A from Üsküdar, which conveniently stops near the Marmaray station. Keep in mind that this is a coach, not a regular bus, so the fare is 4-5 times higher than the standard bus fee. It's important to ensure that you have enough credit on your AKBİL card. The journey to Şile terminal takes approximately one hour. From there, you'll need to take a taxi to reach the beach, which is a distance of 2 km. I would not recommend walking, especially if you have children with you.
