But lovers of a quiet beach holiday will also have a great time on a variety of beaches, many of which have been awarded the Blue Flag. Finding and choosing a tour to Antalya means that you will receive a pass to an amazing world of adventures .
✔️ A bit of chronology and facts
The history of the city is full of interesting events. There is a legend about its foundation, according to which the king of Pergamon, Attalus II, ordered his subjects to find a place comparable to paradise. The servants had already despaired in their search, but then they arrived at the shores of the Mediterranean Sea, where emerald water gently splashed on the shores, mountains rose in the distance, and the green forests gave coolness. The travelers brought the king to this heavenly place, the ruler admired its beauty and founded a city here. The reality is far from being so romantic: Attalus II built a fortress in these places to protect his borders after the division of Panfilia.
The appearance of the city and its surroundings was influenced by many nations: Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs. After the liberation war, the territories were annexed to Turkey. At the end of the 20th century, tourism began to actively develop here, and now it is one of the most popular destinations in the country. Prices for holidays in Antalya have a wide range, you can see them on our website.

▶️ Beach holidays
There are many different beaches here: with the necessary infrastructure and wild, crowded and secluded, with sandy, pebble and rocky coastlines.
Konyaalti Beach stretches for 8 km, there are both equipped and wild areas. This is one of the most visited places in the resort. Rest here is complemented by beautiful mountain landscapes.
On the Topcam coast you will find a secluded beach. Its main feature is its proximity to the Olympos National Park.
The beach park is located near the center, which allows you to combine rest on the beach and entertainment in the city.
Lara Beach has all the conditions for rest with children, the entrance to the water here is gentle everywhere. The swimming area stretches for 3.5 km. Another feature of Lara is the sand sculpture competition, which is held here annually.
Kundu Beach will please you with its sparse crowds and golden sand. However, the infrastructure here is poorly developed.
Of the unusual beaches, I would like to note Mermerli, located in the old part of the city. It is small, only about 100 m, but the atmosphere of antiquity, the cliffs surrounding the shore and the clear turquoise water make the holiday here something special. Adalar Beach will surprise you with the fact that it is not on the sandy shore, but on platforms placed on the rocks. This is an ideal place for lovers of privacy and natural views.
You can just fly on a weekend tour to Antalya and spend a couple of days here, relax on a secluded beach and reboot.

We recommend taking a walk around the old part of the city. It consists of old residential buildings, baths, mosques. Also here is the symbol of Antalya - the Yivli Minaret. The architecture combines elements of the Roman, Byzantine, Ottoman and Turkish periods. It is also worth seeing the Roman triumphal arch Hadrian's Gate, climbing to the Hıdırlık Tower and looking at the panorama of the city, admiring the landscapes of the old harbor.
