A perfect holiday destination

Antalya is the perfect choice for those who are looking for a vacation surrounded by sea and sun.

With its coastline extending 640 km, Antalya lures all the tourists, including locals! In Antalya, you can find some of the most beautiful beaches awarded blue flags, and picturesque coves and bays. Crystal clear waters, sandy beaches, and a warm Mediterranean climate are just some of the things that will make you want to keep returning to this wonderful region. From Patara to Olympos, Konyaaltı to Cleopatra, there are many places to immerse yourself in the tranquility of the Mediterranean Sea in Antalya.

Historical, cultural and natural wonders – All in one place

Diving deep into the history and culture of the region is a must-do in Antalya. Rich in culture and history, the city offers ancient ruins, castles, and monuments. Set out for Hadrian’s Gate, one of the most significant historical sites in the city, or take a walk into the city’s famous old quarter, Kaleiçi, and fall in love with its cobblestone streets leading you to the historical Ottoman houses. 

The city also hosts a lot of natural attractions that are well worth visiting. You should never leave Antalya before taking a full day excursion to Köprülü Canyon National Park, Upper and Lower Düden Waterfalls, or Karain Cave!

Calm waters and mystic mountains

Antalya is a city where mountains meet the sea forming gorgeous natural scenery. The western extension of the Taurus Mountains, known as the Bey Mountains, uncovers outstanding geographical features and hosts several peaks with an altitude between 2000 and 3000 meters. A very popular summit of the Bey Mountains with over 3000 meters altitude, Kızlar Sivrisi, provides a panoramic view over the Mediterranean Sea.

For those who are passionate about long-distance hiking, experiencing the Lycian Way is a must-do in the region. This famous long-distance hiking trail between Antalya and Fethiye extends over 540 km and provides splendid mountain and sea views. This coastal trail is not only a great way to capture the spectacular imagery, but also to experience a journey through ancient civilizations.

    Vielen Dank für diesen Track! Er ist äußerst genau und folgt in meinen Augen der idealen Wegführung. Das Gelände am Grat ist sehr unübersichtlich. Uns hat die Beschreibung sehr geholfen.

    Wunderschöne einzigartige sichere Tour, Wegemarkierung z.T. verblasst, die Aussicht oben ist grandios, für Aussichtplattform (top Zustand) werden noch geringfügige (1-2€) Gebühren fällig.

    Diese Tagesetappe ist sehr entspannt zu gehen. Man kann im Boat House essen oder direkt daneben ist noch ein zweites Restaurant, welches sich auch für eine Pause anbietet.

    Diese Tour hat es von der Länge wirklich in sich, aber sie ist auch atemberaubend schön. Ich bin 7:30 morgens in Kas gestartet und habe zwei Badepausen eingelegt. Die Strände sind richtig schön, nur der Choban Beach ist leider voller Müll, aber das Wasser ist dafür traumhaft klar. Meine zweite Badepause habe ich in Ufakdere eingelegt. Ich muss gestehen, dass mich die gesamte Szenerie dort an einen Horrorfilm erinnert hat. Ich habe später noch drei Engländer getroffen, denen es genauso ging. Als ich dort ankam, war es menschenleer und man steht vor einem traumhaft schönen Strand. Die Häuser rechts waren alle verrammelt und die Fenster zugenagelt, was so gar nicht zu der traumhaften Umgebung passt und ihr etwas gruseliges verleiht. Wenn man an den verrammelten Häusern vorbeigeht, kommt man zu dem Cafe. Dort ist ein Mann, der irgendwie gewirkt hat als hätte er sich selbst aufgegeben. Es war alles sehr schmutzig, voller Müll. Ich hatte nach Essen gefragt, aber er hatte keines. So wie es aussah, wäre es auch fraglich gewesen, ob man dort etwas hätte essen wollen. Ich konnte es nicht glauben, dass die Autorin dieser Wanderung hier noch vor nicht allzu langer Zeit das tolle Essen bekommen hat und habe extra noch das Foto angeschaut, aber es war dasselbe Cafe Es gab jedoch Getränke. Ich hatte ein paar Riegel und Nüsse dabei, aber eigentlich zu wenig, um einen Tag ohne Essen zu überbrücken. Es kommen danach auch keinerlei Essensmöglichkeiten mehr und ich hatte bei der Länge der Tour zu kämpfen, da ich nicht genug zu essen hatte. Also packt auf alle Fälle etwas mehr Riegel ein, wenn ihr auch eher außerhalb der Saison unterwegs seid. Ich vermute, dass es bei mir nichts zu Essen gab, da Ende September noch eher weniger Wanderer auf dem lykischen Weg unterwegs sind.
