Antalya Coast

Old harbours · warm sea · ancient ruins

A considered guide
for two.

A generous Mediterranean honeymoon where a single base can still deliver beaches, history, and excellent breakfasts.

Couples who want a little of everything, with enough infrastructure to keep planning light.

The shape of the trip

Antalya Coast works best when you give it enough time to settle. Plan for 6–9 nights, keep the first day deliberately light, and leave one blank afternoon for the thing you did not know you wanted to do.

  • Kaleiçi evening walk
  • Boat day from Kaş
  • Perge at opening time

Where to base yourselves

  • Kaleiçi for character, restaurants, and old harbour walks
  • Kaş for a smaller coastal base with boat-day appeal

A sample rhythm

Days 1–2

Use Antalya as a gentle landing: old-town walks, breakfast, and one nearby swim.

Days 3–5

Choose one ruin or boat day and keep the hottest part of the afternoon unscheduled.

Days 6–7

End in a coastal base where the last day does not require a long airport transfer.

The honest bit

Resort towns can feel interchangeable. Base yourselves in a characterful neighbourhood and day-trip out.

Antalya airport is well served; shoulder season can be significantly better value than peak summer.
