What the coast looks like here
Many hotels (Turkey, Antalya) have their own beaches. The use of their equipment is usually included in the price of the tour. But there are also those where umbrellas and sunbeds are paid. Then you need to either fork out or settle in the shade on a towel.
The price of beach amenities varies, from five to 15 liras, dependingdepending on the degree of comfort that you are provided. The coastal color of Antalya is very diverse. These are pebble beaches in the Liman area, and rocks in the central part of the city, and sand of different colors on the dunes in Lara. But each of these areas is attractive to tourists in its own way. It depends on which coast they consider suitable for recreation.
Typical beaches of Antalya
These include the coast of Konya alti in the western part of the city. This beach has a free area, with litter bins and changing rooms. There is nothing else there, but you can calmly come with your towel and umbrella and spend your time comfortably. The fact is that few people go to this area of Konya alti. Vacationers mostly prefer the paid area of this beach - with showers, toilets and sun loungers. You need to pay money for the entrance, but you can use all the services. This beach also has eateries and bars. This is how the coast of the central part looks like.
One of the oldest in Antalya, Mermerli Beach, can be attributed to such typical coastal areas. Entrance here costs two dollars. Liman beach is located near the port. All these shores are a continuous strip of pebbles. But it is rather small, there are no large cobblestones on which you can break your legs, as, for example, in Kemer. Sandy beaches in Antalya are located mainly within the city. But they can also be found in areas like Lara, as well as in Belek and Side.

Young people prefer such Antalya beaches as Beach-A park. There are really a lot of trees and greenery. This coast stretches for one and a half kilometers along the sea between the water park and the Sheraton Hotel. It is a series of paid sites. There are many water activities for every taste. These are skis, for skiing in foam splashes, and bananas, and cheesecakes, and catamarans, and numerous boat trips on boats in all directions.
And after sunset, the famous foam parties and discos rumble, which arrange a variety of bars on the shore. It is also believed that the best and most fashionable alcoholic cocktails are poured here. Entry is free, as is dancing, but only if you purchase a drink. Near the center there are hotel beaches popular with Europeans. But since there is a rocky coast, almost all of them are platforms with stairs descending into the water.
Family
If you come with children, then the beaches of Antalya, which are located in the Lara region, are most likely to suit you. It is no different from other coasts, but the entrance to the water here is very gentle, and the coating itself is sandy. Entrance here is free, and renting sun loungers and deck chairs is ten lire a couple per day. Cliffs descend into the sea, and fine white sand covers the space between them.
This area of the city is located ten kilometers from the center. By the way, experienced tourists are advised not to rent a sunbed and an umbrella, but to buy a deck chair and other accessories in any store. The price will surprise you - often it is cheaper than the cost of renting such equipment forone day. The best beaches of Antalya, from the point of view of Russian tourists, of course, are in Lara. First of all, they are good because the equipped zones gradually turn into “wild” ones where you can not only relax for free, but also grill something. Moreover, the number of vacationers decreases significantly, the farther from the city coast. Good sand, but not white, but golden in color, on the beaches of Kundu. This is also an option for an inexpensive family vacation in Antalya.
