Kumkoy beach lies 2 km west of the Side headland and stretches for 5 km of fine sand and shallow water, while Sorgun beach extends 4 km to the east of the headland through pine forest backed by larger family resorts. Both beaches earn Blue Flag status in 2026 for water quality and lifeguard cover. Loungers cost TRY 200 to 300 per pair with umbrella, and most beach clubs include free wifi. The water shelves gradually for 40 metres, perfect for children, and pedalo rental at the Kumkoy central section runs TRY 250 per hour. Watersports operations offer banana boat rides (TRY 350 per person) and parasailing (TRY 800). Sorgun has a more wooded character with a coastal cycling path through pine groves; rental bikes from the Sorgun visitor centre cost TRY 150 per day. Both beaches have public dolmus access from Side every 20 minutes for TRY 30.
Pro Tip: Cycle from Side along the Sorgun pine path at 17:00 in summer 2026. The shaded trail keeps temperatures bearable and you arrive at the eastern beaches just as crowds start thinning.
