Aziziye Sahil Cami in Karasu is highly praised for its cleanliness, organization, and unique coastal atmosphere. Reviewers frequently mention the 'scent of the sea' inside the mosque, which creates a refreshing and memorable environment for prayer. The resident imam, Haydar Hoca, is commended for his deep knowledge and the exquisite quality of his Quran recitations, as well as his engagement with children. Many visitors highlight the superior facilities, specifically noting that the women's sections and ablution areas are exceptionally well-maintained compared to other mosques. While the experience is overwhelmingly positive, one visitor noted a confusing encounter regarding an entry fee, which is atypical for this free place of worship. Overall, the mosque is described as a spacious, beautiful, and serene sanctuary for the local community and travelers alike.
