Balikliova - all beaches

This place is advertised as a camping spot, but it's not really a camping experience at all. You can't stay overnight because it closes at sunset. It's basically just a beach with only one toilet and a temporary shower that offers no privacy, only for rinsing off the salty water. So if you're looking for something similar to European campgrounds, the west coast of Turkey is not the right area.

We visited this beach a long time ago. The water appeared murky and covered in algae. There was no sign of sand along the shoreline. In fact, it would take numerous witnesses to even consider it a proper beach. The market offered very limited options for food and beverages. To make matters worse, an employee named Keko engaged in a heated argument with us regarding the sunbeds. We suggested grabbing a bite to eat, but he seemed equally frustrated.

The beach is stunning, with crystal clear water that is very inviting. There are some rocks at the start, but after a short distance, the sand takes over.

The Turkish Rivera boasts an incredible shoreline with crystal-clear waters that are simply breathtaking. However, there is a need for more dining options such as cafes and restaurants to cater to the visitors. Additionally, the management of the beach would benefit greatly from having a well-maintained cafeteria.

The venue is situated in a unique location (Ilıksu Evleri) within Urla Özbek village. Access is restricted to those who are acquainted with a resident of the site.
