Bosak (Boğsak) is a small beach 98 km from the center of Mersin, 10 km from Tushuju, next to the Antalya – Mersin highway. Conditionally, it can be divided into two beaches, the first one, judging by Google maps, is called Boğsak Halk Plajı, the second one I do not know. Previously, it was one beach with a river in the middle, and then it was divided by breakwaters.

Theoretically, if it weren’t for the dirt and crowding due to local campgrounds, hotels and other private areas, which simply make these small beaches have nowhere to throw a towel by the water, this place could become a good beach destination.
Here is a great place to swim in calm water. Since Bosak is located in a bay that is covered from the sea by the island of the same name, even with wind and waves it will be comfortable here. The entrance to the water is sandy in places, sandy-pebbly and rocky in places. I advise you to wear protective shoes on rocky areas.

I was here once in mid-July, it was very crowded, a large number of cars are parked along the beach, they are in close proximity to the water, as I wrote above – because it is very crowded here and there is not enough parking for everyone.
The water is dirty, vacationers shit in the same place where they swim and no one is particularly embarrassed by this.

Small boats depart from the local pier for boat trips around the island and fishing.
You can stop here once on the way, but I do not recommend staying here for rest if you are driving, there are several other more interesting places in this area.
