About Egirdir: Beaches

The best beaches are out of the centre. The following beaches have facilities such as changing cabins and food stands or restaurants. Yesilada has no real beaches to speak of, though there’s nothing to stop you swimming anywhere around Yesilada, you can clamber down the rocky shore and swim wherever you like for free. Belediye Plaji is less than 1 km from the centre on the Isparta road in the district called Yazla. Altinkum Plaji is several km further north, near the train station. Entry costs $0,30. Even further north (about 11 km.) on the road to Barla is Bedre Plaji, perhaps the best of all – 1,5 km of sand and water and adequate facilities.
