About this place Mermerli Beach

Mermerli is a small paid beach in a cove below the cliffs of Kaleiçi, Antalya's old town, near the old harbour. You reach it down a staircase through the Mermerli restaurant. There is an entry fee, which usually includes a sunbed. It is a mainstream public beach with a mixed crowd, though it has a reputation as relaxed and popular with gay visitors. The restaurant above serves food and drinks with harbour views, and the beach is an easy walk from Kaleiçi's small hotels. It fills up in summer. Turkey has no laws against same-sex relations, but Pride events are banned and anti-LGBTQ rhetoric is official. Keep public affection discreet.

Very disappointed. 800 Turkish lira per person for this tiny piece of beach, we declined.

Mermerli Beach is a convenient coastal stop close to Antalya’s old town. It’s a nice option if you want to combine sightseeing around Kaleiçi with some time by the sea.

This beach is trashy, dirty, full of garbage, and very expensive. It's terrible, don't go there.

Not too badly priced to get in if you make a day of it, nice place to lie and relax, plenty of beds available and the sea was lovely. Only downside is having to buy their drinks/food once inside and can't leave and come back.

Thank you Seçil and Bayram for your attention and hospitality; it is definitely a place worth visiting.

★☆☆☆☆

The prices are very expensive, water is 250 TL, the staff are terrible, they don't know how to talk to people, it's very cramped and not hygienic.

I definitely don't recommend it. They treat people differently depending on who they are. The prices inside are exorbitant, and the sea isn't nice either. I didn't like it.
