Çilingoz Nature Park, Nature park on Black Sea coast in Çatalca, Turkey
The park spans 17.75 hectares of land, combining a 1200-meter sandy beach, dense forests, a freshwater lake, and reed-covered wetlands near the Black Sea.
The region gained protected status in 2005 as a Wildlife Protection Area, leading to its establishment as a nature park in 2011 to preserve local ecosystems.
The park functions as an educational center where visitors learn about local flora and fauna through guided nature walks and informational displays.
Visitors can rent from 60 camping spots until mid-September, access a restaurant and snack bar, or find additional accommodation in nearby Yalıköy.
The Çilingoz Creek creates a distinctive sandy-alluvial mouth where it meets the Black Sea, forming a large lake surrounded by reeds.
