The beach is also among the natural spawning grounds of the Caretta Carettas in the Mediterranean Region. There are three separate natural pools on the beach. Two of them are suitable for non-swimmers and children. The other natural pool has a rapidly deepening structure and if you do not know how to swim, you have to be careful. The beach, which is quieter on weekdays, is quite crowded, especially on weekends.
Since the sea water is very clear, you can easily see the bottoms of natural pools and fish swimming under water. The water floor of Koru Beach, which attracts attention especially by families with children, consists of stones and rocks. These rocks are slippery in some places and sharp in others.
