Konyaaltı Beach

Konyaalti Beach Antalya — Konyaaltı is a long pebble beach stretching west of central Antalya, backed by views of the Beydağları mountains, and one of two main beach areas in the city alongside sandier Lara. It’s free to access, lined with beach clubs, cafes and a landscaped promenade, and connected to the center by the AntRay tram.

Why visit Konyaaltı Beach? (Konyaalti Beach Antalya)

Konyaaltı’s defining feature is its backdrop: the Beydağları mountain range rises directly behind the shoreline, giving the beach a dramatic sea-and-mountain view unusual for a major resort beach. The beach itself is pebble rather than sand — worth knowing in advance, since water shoes make a real difference in comfort — and stretches several kilometers, giving enough space that even peak-season crowds spread out. Beach Park, the landscaped strip along the promenade, adds cafes, restaurants and the Antalya Aquarium within walking distance, making it easy to combine a beach day with other activities without leaving the area.
