Long sandy public beach on Şile's Black Sea coast — great for wide seascapes, dune foregrounds, surfers and dramatic storm skies. Best at sunrise for warm light and reflections, or off-season for moody clouds and empty sands. Easy access by car or local bus from Istanbul; free entry but busy on summer weekends. Limited parking on nearby streets; expect beach facilities and seasonal lifeguards.
