Golden beaches, located between high cliffs, are set against the backdrop of the mighty Taurus mountains. The coastline here is a feast to the eyes and Antalya is no exception. Welcome to the ‘pearl of the Turkish Riviera’...
When the sun slowly sets, it is time to head into town. Shops and restaurants are opened until late in the evening. The culinary offer is particularly broad, from fish restaurants to meat restaurants and soup restaurants. Take your time for dinner as the waiters do, which is typically Turkish. Dinner is traditionally finished with a cup of kahve (coffee). After dinner it is time to explore the abundant night life of Antalya: Konyaalti beach is lined with various little bars and the Çiçek arcade (Flower arcade) is popular because of its live music. The traditional coffee houses are also worthwhile.

To and from the airport:
Bus number 600 runs between Antalya Airport and Antalya Bus Terminal (Otogar), which is the main bus station of Antalya located 6 kilometres north of downtown Antalya. The bus departs in front of the Domestic Terminal; the station can be recognized by a blue ‘D’ sign. If you have to be in the centre of Antalya, please get off at the stop ‘Yener Ulusoy’, instead of remaining seated until the last stop ‘Otogar’. From ‘Yener Ulusoy’ you can walk to the centre of Antalya via the street ‘Sarampol Cd’; the distance is 1.5 kilometres. The bus runs in both directions every 30 minutes; travel time is 15 minutes according to the timetable yet often it takes longer.
A ticket costs 3.40 TL per person.
