Gülen Plaj Camping

Black Sea Coast


The more attractive of two side-by-side camping areas on the north coast, Gülen's six wooden bungalows are a little ropey but can sleep up to six people, have basic bathrooms, and balconies overlooking a pleasant sweep of north-facing beach.

The same view is available from the raised, pine-fringed camping lawn, a lovely spot even though the shower-toilet is a tad dowdy. There are a few power points on a tree for recharging. The site is 2.5km north then west of the centre. There's plenty of dining options nearby.
