The beach is covered with pebbles and stones, making it uneven and quite dirty, with both garbage and algae present. Near the entrance, a small river cuts through the beach, bringing in cold water and turbidity (I hesitate to comment on the sanitary conditions). The area is largely undeveloped, and the few amenities available are not very appealing and appear worn out. On the plus side, access to the beach is convenient and free from the second half of September. However, during this time, the cafes are closed and there is no food available. The sea itself is not very clean.
We rented a place in the Anapolis residential complex, and the beach and sea are terrible. It's been five days, and the kids still can't go into the water. There's no storm, but the sea is just murky, dirty, and filled with dead insects and jellyfish. It's a complete letdown. I've never seen a dirtier sea. It seems like Anapa is like this everywhere.
