There is no clear predominance of mountain landscapes or crystal sea, on the contrary, everything seems balanced. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why the flow of tourists continues to grow from year to year.

Latest reviews on Antalya's beaches

Manavgat beach II
10 Zalora

The beach is open to the public and doesn't require any fees. It has a spacious parking area and is well-maintained. It seems to be quite popular with the locals.

Little Calticak II
2 Владик

We felt deceived at the entrance when they charged us 48 lira, but later deducted 144 lira from our card, explaining that the Volkswagen Transporter is considered a minibus and costs more. We, as a family of four, were disappointed to find no available spots in the park to enjoy a cup of coffee or tea. This experience completely ruined our mood.

Sante Beach Camping
6 Ozzy

My family and I stayed at this beach for five nights. Despite reading positive reviews, my expectations were not met. We paid 15,000 liras for our stay, but it was not worth the money. The reception staff were not friendly, nice, or interested. However, the cleaners were great. The hotel is located in a good area, away from the chaos of Kas central, but it is only a five-minute drive away and not within walking distance. If you drive to town, it is difficult to find a parking spot, so taking a cab is your best option. The rooms were old but acceptable. The pool was very basic, and the pool bar was still closed. The beach was nice, but not suitable for children. The breakfast was average, with the same options every day for five days. Tea was complimentary, but they charged for everything else. The hotel has a problem with wasps, which need to be addressed. They constantly hover over your head during breakfast and even land on your plate. Even when you go up to the pool, you are not safe from them as they are everywhere. Another major issue is the useless wifi. I had to rely on my own data throughout my stay. I hope this information is helpful!

Moonlight beach
8 Nadia Sorenzo

This is a fantastic destination with stunning beaches, but it is important to note that leaving your car with the valet may result in a less than desirable experience. You may find yourself waiting for up to thirty minutes to retrieve your vehicle, or worse, returning to find it parked in the hot sun. However, with proper planning and attention to detail, your day at the beach will be nothing short of incredible.

Goynuk Beach III

Unless you're staying in a high-end hotel, the public beach is not worth visiting. It's quite small, about the size of half a football field, and lacks any amenities. The hotels' security staff keep a close eye on you, and you're not even allowed to walk on the hotel side of the beach. It's not worth your time. It's a shame that locals in Turkey can't enjoy their own public beaches. I would have given this beach zero stars if I could.

Damlatas beach
10 Kai Chen

This beach, located near the mountains, is truly stunning. The beach and sea are both very clean, and there are options to take boat rides. Overall, it is an amazing experience.

Please note that lifeguards supervise 81 beaches in the region, but you should rely on more than just them, remember the elementary rules, as lifeguards are not on duty around the clock, even on equipped beaches!
