Long-term monthly averages: air from NASA POWER (2001–2020), sea from NOAA OISST (1991–2020); records are the extremes of 2001–2020. How the index works.
When to go
The beach-day index peaks in September; September scores 9.4/10 with highs of 32 °C, sea at 23.1 °C and 18 mm of rain.
That matches the median for beaches in Turkey in the same month.
At its warmest the water here is 1.1 °C cooler than the Turkey median for August (25.0 °C).
Across the year the sea averages 19.5 °C, warmer than 60% of the coastal beaches in the atlas.
January is the wettest month (135 mm) and July the driest (4 mm); the yearly total is about 680 mm.
Daylight runs from 9.6 hours in December to 14.8 hours in June; in mid-September the sun rises at 06:51 and sets at 19:21 local time.
Orientation, sun and shore
The shore faces west-north-west (290°). Open water fills about 36% of the horizon close by, which makes it an open stretch of shore.
The sun sets over the sea in every month; in mid-June it goes down at 20:34 local time on a bearing of 301°.
Straight out to the west-north-west the next coast is roughly 80 km away, so waves are mostly wind-driven sea rather than ocean swell.
About 1 km offshore the sea is roughly 10 m deep and 42 m at 3 km, a shallow, gently shelving sea floor. Behind the beach the ground is about 45 m above sea level 500 m inland and 73 m at 1.5 km.
Within 1 km, the land is 75% built-up land, 19% tree cover and 4% grassland (satellite land-cover map, 2021): an urban beach. Water makes up 40% of that circle.
- Built 75%
- Tree 19%
- Grass 4%
