Konyaaltı Beaches

This guide to Konyaaltı Beaches in Antalya traces the unusual geography that sets this shore apart, the Taurus Mountains rising straight from a long pebble arc, with the old town of Kaleiçi perched on the cliffs above. It follows the beach's Blue Flag waters, the sound its smooth pebbles make underfoot, and the free glass lift that climbs the cliff face at the eastern end. Ride it up for the view that has drawn people to this meeting point since antiquity.
