There is a significant amount of litter scattered across the beach, and unfortunately, there is a beach attendant from the nearby Etap hotel who is quite impolite.
The location of the beach is nice, and the sea is clean and enjoyable. However, the beach itself and the picnic area could use better maintenance and cleaning. It's also inconvenient that the convenience stores are quite far, and the condition of the toilets is unsatisfactory.
This destination is well-liked by the residents. The fee for vehicle entry is 15 lira, and during summer weekends, the area is bustling with visitors (while in other months, it is notably deserted with no one around to collect fees). Amenities include restroom facilities, fresh water supply, and abundant foliage. The shoreline is pristine, and the water is shallow.
When we visited on May 20th, the beach was completely empty, although I can't say for certain how crowded it will be during the peak season. The fact that it was private property was clearly indicated all around, making it evident to everyone. It was a great spot for barbecuing and camping, but unfortunately, the ocean had a lot of rocks and stones. We opted for Taşkapı because it was quite windy that day, but under normal circumstances, it's not a recommended choice for beachgoers.
We initially visited the beach for the Zeytinli rock festival, but once we stumbled upon it, we instantly fell in love with its charm.
