Iztuzu Beach

Iztuzu Beach is about 6 km.long.No one can say that Iztuzu Beach, 18 km from Koycegiz on Turkey's Mediterranean Coast, is undiscovered. After all, loggerhead turtles (carretta carretta) discovered it eons ago.
But it's so big and so distant from big cities that it never seems crowded.
If you want to get away from the madding crowds, just walk a few minutes farther west to your own little section of sand.Turtles( Caretta Caretta)The border between the sea and the internal marsh is a long narrow beach called "the Turtle Beach." This beach is one of the few remaining locations in the Mediterranean sea that has the right conditions for the Giant Loggerhead Turtle (Caretta Caretta) to reproduce. The Giant Loggerhead Turtles have used this beach as a laying ground since time immemorial, especially in June. The females lay their eggs by night in the soft sand, in clutches of about 100. Since the early 90's the beach is closed to the public from 8 pm to 8 am to protect them. The beach is open during the day but swimmers and sunbathers are asked to exercise special care.
