There's a small beach next to the Merit Hotel. The sunbathing area is narrow, while the rest is concrete. The sea is clean but shallow, making it ideal for children.

A beach accessible through both a forested area and an old hotel. Everything was clean, and the municipality had done a great job. Entry was only 50 TL. Parking was easy. It was a beautiful bay for diving, and there were also paddleboards available for rent.

I believe it's a municipal beach on the Alsancak side. There's ample parking for vehicles on weekdays, but I doubt it'll be sufficient on weekends. It's best to arrive early. After parking, you walk 3-4 minutes down the stairs to the beach. The staff at the entrance sells tickets. Entry is 50 TL per person, and sun loungers and umbrellas are available. However, be careful, you might not find them after paying during busy times. The beach is shallow and ideal for children. The water is very clean. We liked the sea. There are also showers, toilets, and changing rooms, which is a very good service. There's also a reasonably priced establishment by the seaside. They serve fast food, ice cream, and fresh drinks. I think the value is quite good. Overall, I recommend this beach for a swim.

We went on the recommendation of someone we met at a place in Cyprus. I loved the sea. Swimming is incredibly enjoyable. The beach is small, but there's no shortage of space. You can go around 10am and hang out until evening. Two sun loungers and an umbrella are 100 TL. There's a cafe on the corner. The hamburger menu is 400 TL. Old Maraş and this place are worth a visit while in Cyprus.
