A nature park on Çatalca's Black Sea coast where forest, lake, reed beds and a 1.2 km beach meet.

Safety warning

Rip currents in the Black Sea are dangerous; do not swim where there is no lifeguard. Follow the fire rules.

Its story

Çilingoz lies in a bay opening onto the Black Sea in the Binkılıç area of Çatalca and was declared a nature park in 2011. Hunting is prohibited in the area, which had earlier been declared a wildlife protection area in 2005. Where the Çilingoz Stream meets the sea, a lake surrounded by reed beds forms; to the north stretches a fine-sand beach about 1.2 kilometers long. The forest, mainly beech, hornbeam and oak, allows activities such as camping, hiking and picnicking.
