When you go from Izmir to Çeşme, you can reach the beach by leaving the Alaçatı exit and following the Ilıca signs in the direction of Çeşme.

???JULY 2025 2 Sunbeds + Umbrella: 500₺ …⬇️ The prices above are for the Çeşme Municipality's business. I don't know if there are any other businesses, but the prices are the same at the buffet right next to the Swiss Hotel. It may be a little difficult to find a sunbed after 11-12 on weekends. The buffet offers water, alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. Prices are not inflated; water: 15₺ For food, there's a Migros nearby. You can get pizza there, which can be a bit of a line, or there's a kumru restaurant right across from Migros. The sea is quite beautiful, sandy, and free of stones. It never deepens quickly, which is a wonderful thing. Its coldness is ideal. The biggest problem is that if there's wind, there are a lot of waves, making swimming difficult. There's not much you can do about this. It's all a matter of luck. As of July 2025, the showers have been closed due to lack of water. The restrooms are in very poor condition. If you came by car, definitely leave it in the parking lots. You don't seem to have a chance of finding a spot on the street anyway, but cars are parked on the street. There are no parking signs. They also get fined 992₺ during the day. That's why parking is definitely more advantageous.
Its water is as clear as an aquarium. It's one of Izmir's most beautiful Blue Flag public beaches. With water that doesn't deepen for up to 100 meters, it's a great location for families with children and those who aren't very good at swimming. The water temperature is also warm and comfortable, living up to its name. It's a very long beach. Free changing rooms and showers are available along the beach. You can bring your own umbrella and camping chair, or you can rent one. There are cafes nearby for dining and drinking. If you're considering a visit, this is another paradise in Izmir.
Anyone with sense should get up early and leave before noon. The sea is beautiful, waveless, clear, and doesn't get deep suddenly. Two sun loungers and an umbrella cost 500 TL, but some people just pretend they've paid or say they'll pay, stalling on the sun loungers and lingering there for hours. The drinks at the buffet are 95 TL (I found them excessive), so you'd be better off buying from the supermarket. Kumru was 265 TL, and you can buy it and eat it. We paid 300 TL for the parking lot. You can find a spot along the road in the morning, but it's impossible by noon. I recommend avoiding the weekend crowds. Unfortunately, people leave the beach dirty.
The sea is beautiful but very crowded. There are parking lots nearby, but when it's crowded, there are cars everywhere, and the roads are a bit narrow. Because it was so crowded, we went to the small public beach further along, on the same shore. It was quieter, and it's a small spot, so you could enjoy a few hours. You can use the hotel's sun loungers for a fee. This is one of the must-see beaches in Izmir.
The water and beach are actually very beautiful, but due to the crowds, there can be a lot of trash. We went around 10 a.m. on a weekend and rented sun loungers. Two sun loungers and an umbrella cost 500 TL. You can also sit with your own umbrella and chair a little further on. We paid 300 TL for parking. The business's soft drinks were 95 TL. There's a Migros and a supermarket a little further on, and you can buy them much cheaper there. The kumru is not bad (265 TL). It's incredibly beautiful in the mornings. Parking is also much easier. The water temperature is very nice.
