User reviews
"We frequent this beach almost every day during our summer vacation. The sea is stunning, with a rocky entrance followed by fine golden sand and green grass shaded by olive trees. However, the lack of showers and the municipality's tendency to lay cobblestones only when summer housekeepers arrive can be frustrating."
Emre Yılmaz
"The beach boasts of clean water with minimal algae, and offers a picnic area as well as two public restrooms. However, the facilities are quite basic, with a broken tap and a door handle that is almost falling off. It would be great if the authorities could improve the quality of service provided. The simplicity of the amenities leaves us feeling rather disappointed."

What to do in Altinyol Bay? Are there any attractions or entertainments in region?
The deeper you dive, the more interesting the surrounding scenery - that's how you can characterize Altinyol Bay, but that doesn't mean that landscapes are uninteresting and it's better to spend all your time underwater. The fact is that one of the key activities on the beach is diving. Here you can scuba dive not only as a professional, but also a beginner, as there are several companies along the coast engaged in diving and diver training. Take advantage.
Extremes can be moderate or excessive, so if you are a fan of the first type, than Altinyol Bay welcomes you, offering kite and windsurfing.
