Local tips
- Use an Istanbulkart to access the paid Caddebostan 1 beach or take the frequent 4 or 16D buses from Kadıköy center.
- When dining at local restaurants, a tip of 5–10% is standard and greatly appreciated as it is not always included in the bill.
- Avoid wearing swimwear or overly revealing clothing when walking away from the beach area and onto the main shopping street, Bağdat Caddesi.
- Keep a close eye on your personal belongings in the crowded park and beach areas, as petty theft can occasionally occur in these popular social spots.
