About Antalya

The Turkish Riviera — turquoise Mediterranean beaches, Kaleiçi old town, Düden waterfalls into the sea, all-inclusive mega-resorts, and the #1 summer destination for Gulf families.

Antalya is Turkey's tourism capital and the most popular destination for Gulf visitors — over 2 million Arab tourists visit annually. Kaleiçi (Old Town) features Hadrian's Gate (130 AD), Ottoman houses, and a charming harbour. Düden waterfalls cascade 40 metres directly into the Mediterranean. Aspendos has the world's best-preserved Roman theatre. Lara Beach and Belek host mega all-inclusive resorts with halal-certified kitchens, segregated pools, and Arabic-speaking staff.
