The other side of Side - the East Beach is quieter than its famous western counterpart. A mix of sand and pebbles with views of the ancient walls and Roman amphitheater from the water. Local restaurants serve authentic Turkish cuisine at reasonable prices. Fewer tourists, more popular with locals - you'll find a genuine atmosphere here. Excellent swimming water thanks to cleanliness and calm conditions. The beach offers a more authentic Turkish Riviera experience away from the package tour crowds.
