Discovering Coastal Beauties



Discovering Coastal Beauties
Antalya
The largest conurbation on the Turkish Mediterranean coast, Antalya is famous for its old city, Kaleiçi, which lies at the modern town’s heart. Here, within the old city walls, you can find superb boutique hotels, resplendent in their local architecture. For those who delight in discovering ancient ruins, Antalya is a great spot to base yourself.


Belek

Close to the city of Antalya, Belek is a very popular resort. Its sandy beaches, superb all-inclusive hotels, and entertainment are good for families with children who prefer to be based in one place rather than move around.
Marmaris
A popular destination for holidaymakers, like Fethiye, Marmaris is also well-known for the bays that pervade its coastline. Many of the bays are home to some extraordinary properties that act as special retreats for ultimate relaxation.

Kalkan – Kas
Popular with foreign visitors, Kalkan & Kaş together form a district, about three hours away from Antalya. Along the way, you can stop in Demre – Myra where Saint Nicholas (aka Santa Claus) was born. These villages boast not only charm but also pure and inviting turquoise water along the coastline.

Fethiye

Very close to the UNESCO world Heritage site of Xsanthos & Letoon, Fethiye is an important harbor for gület (large wooden boats), which travel out to the numerous beautiful bays. Close by is Olüdeniz, well-known for its beautifully shaped beach, for swimming, and for paragliding.


Bodrum
Popular with foreign visitors, Kalkan & Kaş together form a district, about three hours away from Antalya. Along the way, you can stop in Demre – Myra where Saint Nicholas (aka Santa Claus) was born. These villages boast not only charm but also pure and inviting turquoise water along the coastline.
