Tekirdağ area is the site of many holiday homes, because the city is only two hours drive from Istanbul. Şarköy villages, Mürefte and Kumbağ are particularly popular with Turkish tourists. A big part of this holiday was built in an unregulated and unplanned and therefore much of the coast looks over-built. Marmara Sea is polluted, but there are still a number of beaches near Tekirdağ.
