A paradise valley and a pebble beach. Plenty of flat spots, some fig and olive trees providing shadow. The usual fireplaces and rubbish here and there, but there is a container, so it's not to bad. Probably busy in season

6km of track, a rough, dusty new road leads to the pretty place, a pebbly beach in a Cove surrounded by pines. The bay is now being developed with a cafe and WiFi, toilets and showers.
Current fee to park and use the facilities is only 10 lira, so very reasonable. It seems overnight parking in the car park is allowed, though unspectacular and noisy due to a generator.
Other options include taking a right at the bay to the fire break if you have a 4x4 or instead of going to the main park, take a left at the car park barrier and go down to a small campsite on the left of the Cove. A bit of a busy, tatty site but it's on the beach. It seems this site will also be developed and won't be free for long. There is another alternative which is to stay high above the bay. This is where we had two peaceful nights with a great view. Again, unlikely this spot will stay free for long. A barrier has been erected but not currently in use.
This beach is no longer a public beach. It’s being developed, there are some new wooden bungalow, possibly for a restaurant and toilet blocks. The beach is fenced off. Looks pretty, though.
It was possible, however, to continue on the track to the South end of the bay. There is an ugly fire break there but it makes a good camping spot where it meets the track. 4x4 is an advantage to get there, not a lot of space to turn around the vehicle. Great views, no one comes there. We liked it, especially the turquoise water if you follow the hiking trail marks.
Nice place but full of locals. Calm at night. Nice to walk an piece of the Lycian trail.
Report Check-InGreat this time of year. Have spent the last 3 days here with the Sunday being the only slightly busy day. Green grass to pitch up on and reasonably flat.
Report Check-InYup, busy in high season, but as the field is large there is enough privacy if you drive to the back of it. Totally quiet at night.
