Coastal urban park on the Atakum shoreline offering Black Sea vistas, palm-lined promenades, lawns and local life — good for seascapes, low-angle shoreline compositions, and environmental portraits of residents. Best at sunrise and golden hour for warm light and long reflections; sunset can produce dramatic skies. Accessible on foot or by tram from central Samsun, free entry, street parking nearby; expect breezy conditions and weekend crowds. No special permits for casual shooting.
