Kemer
Kemer is a small touristic town with its 40.000 inhabitants alongside its coast Beldibi and Goynuk ares are located on the eastern part and Kiris, Camyuva and Tekirova are located on the western side with its luxurious resorts.
Kemer has a spectacular coastline that is completely unspoilt with lush green forests where tangerine, orange and pine trees grow and mountains that create a stunning scenery; as good as any in the world.
This is why Kemer was one of few places to be awarded an EU Blue Flag award and declared a wildlife conservation area.
The warm climate and favourable pricing of the Turkish Lira make Kemer popular with tourists seeking a “sun and sand” holiday, with a wide choice of luxury hotels with 5 star accommodation at affordable prices.
In Kemer you can start a Summer’s day with a swim in the warm sea then take a cable car up to 2365 m to the peak of Tahtali mountain and 20 minutes later you can make a snowman.
Other local sites of interest include Phaselis, which dates back to 700 BC. There are also frequent boat tours and the spectacular amphitheatre ruins as well as ancient Roman relics such as Hadrian’s Gate, Roman viaducts and the romantic Sea harbour.
Another must see attraction is the splendid burning mountain of Cirali. In the evenings the mountain is literally on fire as natural gases ignite and light up the mountain. We’ve climbed up the mountain at night ourselves, and it’s a good climb but it’s also an experience of a lifetime.
At the same time you Adrasan and watch the famous caretta turtles hatching from their eggs. The turtles hatch at night on the sandy beaches and have to make their way to the sea chased by seagulls and other predators. Adrasan is also famous for rock climbing, paragliding, diving, fishing and water sports.
