Kızılot: Coast, Green Spaces and Sea Turtles

A covered market hall adds to this picture. This means Kızılot can be understood not only in terms of its beach, but also through its nature and leisure offerings. The following features will help you get a sense of the destination before comparing hotel options in Kızılot.

Coast and nesting grounds

Kızılot Halk Plajı ve Mesire Alanı extends for 1.2 kilometres along the coast. The area includes walking paths and 15,000 square metres of green space. When considering Kızılot for a hotel stay, you can take both the coast and the walking paths and green space into account when choosing where to stay. Kızılot Yuvalama Kumsalı is one of the largest sea turtle nesting grounds in the Mediterranean region. There is a sea turtle nesting ground at Kızılot Halk Plajı; nesting areas for loggerhead turtles (Caretta caretta) along the coast of Kızılot have been fenced off for protection. Warning signs in German, English, Russian and Turkish have been installed at the nesting areas. The protection of sea turtles is therefore a tangible nature-related consideration that you can factor into your decision to visit Kızılot.

Leisure at the beach and recreation area

Kızılot Halk Plajı ve Mesire Alanı includes a children's playground and a freely accessible outdoor sports area. The site also has 19 kamelyas, which are suitable for picnics without grilling. So if you are planning a picnic, the kamelyas are for use without grilling. Play, sports and picnics are different leisure options available within the area. Facilities also include two lifeguard towers, as well as toilets, showers and changing rooms. There are also two kiosks and parking for 150 vehicles. Regular beach services are available at Kızılot Halk Plajı, and safety measures are in place for visitors.

Another local point of interest

Another distinctive feature of the area is the covered market hall. It was built on a 6,045-square-metre site. Alongside the coastal and natural features, this gives you another tangible point of reference for understanding Kızılot. When planning your trip, you can consider the market hall as a local feature in its own right, alongside the beach and leisure offerings. The area measurement refers to the site on which the market hall was built, not just the covered hall itself.

Considering Kızılot when searching for a hotel

To decide whether Kızılot suits your trip, you can weigh the area's features according to your own priorities. The beach and walking paths, green space and nature-related features sit alongside play and sports facilities. If sea turtles are a priority for you, you can factor the importance of the nesting grounds into your choice of area; if you are planning a beach stay, Kızılot Halk Plajı ve Mesire Alanı offers a tangible local point of reference.
