Turkish Airline Flights to Visit Turkish Riviera

  To be more precise, it is located in the south of Turkey and is also known by the Lycian Coast's name due to its most illustrious settlers: the Lycians. Bathed by the Mediterranean Sea waters, this enclave has always been a strategic place throughout history. If you're planning to visit this place by taking the Turkish Airline flights, consider reading the following guide.

How to get to the Turkish coast?

Most of the travelers enter Turkey through Istanbul and, after spending a few days in ancient Constantinople, we set out to visit other enclaves of the kebab country. To get to the Turquoise Coast, you have various options and means of transport, depending on where you are.

·        From Istanbul, there are domestic flights to Antalya and Dalaman airports. From Cappadocia, you have direct flights to Antalya.

·        Turkey has a good network of buses that run through most tourists and fewer tourist destinations in the country. Whether you have taken Turkish flights to Istanbul or are in Cappadocia or lost in Conchinchina, you can travel by night and day buses to get to the coast. Of course, the distance is excellent, and the trip is a good kill.

Where to Stay?

We recommend you choose as a base for maneuvers one of the two coastal towns.

·        Kalkan Hotels

·        Kas Hotels

You can travel by bus, rental car, taxi or organized excursion to the main tourist attractions from any of them.

What to see on the Turquoise Coast?

One of the best plans you can make on the Lycian Coast is to rent a boat (schooner) to sail the turquoise waters of the Turkish Mediterranean. The landscape in this area is spectacular. Pine forests are mixed with Lycian archaeological remains and ancient sunken cities on the island of Kekova.

Renting a gulet is quite painful for the pocket but don't worry, you have more options among which we recommend the following two:

Go on a day trip by boat with 20 other people. During the tour, the ship stops in the middle of the sea to snorkel, bathe and visit the town of Kalekoy, an ancient Simena, which is only accessible by sea.

Rent a kayak and tour the coast and the island of Kekova at your leisure.

Phaselis

He gossips say that this was the place chosen by Marco Antonio to declare himself to Cleopatra. We do not know for sure if the pharaoh fell into his arms or did the cobra. Today, Phaselis is no longer the prosperous city it was once, but an archaeological site abandoned its fate but with a lot of charm. If you are passionate about history and stones, you will have a great time strolling among the remains of what was once one of the most important commercial ports in the Mediterranean.

If you are one of those who do not go crazy seeing deposits, do not worry. We recommend you to take cheap flights to visit this magnificent place because you will need more money to enjoy your trip to the fullest.

The environment is incredible, and you can take a dip in one of the three beaches next to the ruins of Phaselis, surrounded by pine trees, mountains, and crystal-clear waters.

Myra

Another memory of the past that has survived to this day is that the Lycians did not go around with little girls when building their cities. This is the image you will see when you visit Myra; a vertical rock wall carved like a Gruyere cheese. You may be wondering if the Lycians lived in those cubicles dug out of the rock, then it's probably not true. You can always try to find it out by taking your Turkish Airline flight. But the fact is that the spaces carved out of the rock were his eternal resting place, that is, his cemetery.
