There are two small beaches nearby. One is paid, about 13 USD per person. With a swimming pool and a decent shore. The second one is free (sunbed - 4 USD per person) with thick algae 10 meters from the shore, over which many jellyfish swim.
Both beaches are rocky. Even the free beach is cleaner than the beaches on the other side of the island. This side is not easy to get to. Either walk through a steep mountain (the road is quite difficult), or persuade the locals to take you in a small cart along the mountain roads. The sensations are specific)
Great beach, paid 100 liras per person. The island is wonderful, there is a monastery above the beach - pass by on the way back to the port, at sunset the road is magical.

The island itself is nice, small, neat, and the closest to Istanbul. But here's the beach - it seems, and it's close, and it's beautiful - but, first of all, it's small, there are a lot of people on the free part on weekends. The main thing is that the water itself is stagnant and there is a lot of garbage. Although, surprisingly, there are a lot of fish and all kinds of marine life - if a little further from the shore, it will be interesting in a mask.
