Beaches in Turkey
Turkeys beaches are best during the period from May to Oct, although the water is still a little chilly until the middle of June. Generally, the sand generally coarser than the sand on the Bulgarian Black Sea coast and even filled with pebbles at places. Nevertheless, the hot sunshine, friendly locals and low prices which are guaranteed along the Turkish beaches, attract thousands of holiday-makers to Turkey. Here are some of Turkey's best beaches:
