Şile at a glance
Şile is a seaside district on the Black Sea coast of Istanbul's Asian side, known for its long sandy beaches and relaxed atmosphere. The historic lighthouse that serves as the town's emblem, the castle remains on the shore, the hand-woven cotton cloth called Şile bezi and its fish restaurants are what the area is known for. Ağva, part of the same district, sits where two streams meet the sea and is a favourite weekend retreat, with guesthouses and small hotels along the riverbanks.
Accommodation in Şile and Ağva is spread along the coast and through wooded areas, and some places are reached via narrow village roads. Please include the hotel or guesthouse name, or the name of your holiday housing complex, together with the full address in your booking. If you are travelling with children, baby or child seats can be added to your booking as paid extras.
