Sahmelek beach
Ultimate guide (December 2025)
Sahmelek is a beach to the east of Aksaz village in Turkey. It is surrounded by scenic mountains, while swimming is comfortable. You just have to walk the first 2-3 meters of rocky bottom, and then there will be sand. There is sunbeds rental, as well as toilets. Unfortunately, there is occasional trash everywhere. The best is to get here from Aksaz. Since this is the only good road to the beach. Shore and seabed: sand, stones.
