Where Turkish beaches stretch for miles
Alanya has a warm and gentle sea, and beaches that stretch for miles – and an interesting history. Situated on the Gulf of Antalya on Turkey's Mediterranean coast, Alanya has been a favoured seaside holiday resort for over 800 years. Backed by the pine-forested Taurus Mountains, Alanya has spectacular views and charming rural villages, where life continues much as it always has.
When tired of relaxing on the beach, there are several sites such as the medieval Alanya Castle and remains of a Seljuk village, the Red Tower, and nearby Damlatas Caves to visit. Alanya has a range of crooked shop-filled streets, and part of the fun is perfecting your haggling skills. The harbour is a hub of activity, particularly at night, with a range of restaurants, bars and clubs offering an authentic Turkish experience.
