Insider Advice: Kickstart your Istanbul adventure with the Istanbul E-Pass or Istanbul Tourist Pass. These passes provide free access to around 70+ top attractions, tours and essential local services in the city with around 70% savings.

We can say that, the beaches in the Kilyos region, on the north-west Black Sea coasts of Istanbul are the best ones for tourists. They offer quality beach services with classy beach clubs, water sports activities and summer parties.

You can check the results of the cleanliness of the sea water, from the Turkish Ministry of Health’s Sea Water Measurement System: yuzme.saglik.gov.tr (the site is Turkish but you can even understand from the signs, the blue means perfect, green is good, orange is bad, red is forbidden, gray is new (not measured))
