Undoubtedly, Momo Beachclub stands out as the finest in the area! After exploring numerous other options, I can confidently say that Momo offers the utmost quality and excellence.
This place is absolutely amazing, with a fantastic beachfront location right by the sea. It's especially perfect for enjoying breathtaking sunsets. The food here is incredible, incredibly delicious, and we had such a satisfying meal. The staff was also incredibly friendly and lovely. I would definitely recommend this place.
The water quality was poor and the beach was excessively crowded, despite it being a Monday when we visited.
The road leading to the beach is in terrible condition, however, the water is incredibly clear. Unfortunately, there is no sand or beach available. Additionally, the entrance fee is 250TL.
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.
