In the charming town of Eskihisar, you can enjoy the sea while eating your brioche buns in the tea garden under the gum tree. The coastline was improved before the 2011 elections, so it's best to visit on a sunny day. I want to give my greetings to my aunt who has been living in Gebze for 35 years and never took me to Eskihisar.
