Konyaalti Beach is one of the two main beaches in Antalya, located about 3 km west of Kalekapısı. Stretching over 7 km from Beydağları Mountains to the cliffs, it is a long strip of pebbles and rough sand with a park at the back. Close to the beach there are many hotels and residential areas. Take the Nostalji tram westward from Kalekapısı at the center of Antalya to the end of the tramway line near the Antalya Museum to reach this beach. By walk it is around 15 minutes’ away from the old town.
The Antalya Beach Park has trees, snack stands, cafes, showers as well as sun umbrellas. In some areas on the beach there are many facilities and on the other areas, the amenities are quite far. The largest water park in Antalya―Aqualand lies just behind the beach park. Even better is the private part of the beach that has quite and serene atmosphere and free sun beds for everyone. If you are a water lover, you can swim and jet ski at the beach or just sit with your feet in the water and relax as the waves pass you back and forth on the shore.
