Alanya holidays - A popular holiday destination
With Alanya we are talking Turkey's Mediterranean coast; Alanya has its own Gulf and is a favourite holiday destination. It has its own special feature, a rocky little peninsula sticking out into the sea which divides the town into two. The old Ottoman castle on top of the peninsular is rated a UNESCO World Heritage site. Alanya is accessed by two airports, the main one, Antalya being 70 miles away and a smaller airport a few miles away.

Alanya is popular with couples and especially with families so don’t forget to take the children. They’ll be kept well busy with all the things to do (and that applies to all ages).

Holidays in Alanya - Warm waters and Mediterranean scenery
Alanya is a port so there are cruise ships which pop in and you will also find a marina in the west town. You can take a ferry to northern Cyprus for an enjoyable expedition, speeding across the beautiful Mediterranean. But there’s also plenty to do on the lovely sandy beaches and in the green-blue clear sea. The sea is amazingly warm in the summer at around 27°C. Cooler in the winter but definitely still swimmable. Temperature in the summer is in the upper 30°C's and the winter is sunny and mild.

Alanya holidays - Enjoyable family holidays
During on holidays in Alanya you will find some private beaches and you will need to hand over cash but you should then be able to relax on a sunbed with a parasol.
