Natural Beauty

Kemer, unlike many destinations in Turkey, is found on the Caspian Sea rather than the Aegean, meaning it is a little quieter than your usual Turkish holiday destination and ideal for those after truly relaxing holidays. The town is surrounded by crystal clear blue waters, mountains and forests meaning lying on the beach, gentle walks or real hikes are all an opportunity well worth taking advantage of.

Mountains

On one side of Kemer is the Pine-Clas Taurus Mountains which stand majestically over the town, whilst on the other side glorious swaths of sandy beaches stretch out for miles. For the energetic, exploring the mountains is a must, however if you have a split in the group the town is small enough to easily meet up in the evening. The restaurants, bars and cafes offer excellent locally caught fish and there is everything from real traditional tavernas through to chic and luxury spots to dine.

Historical Locations

There is a deep and rich historical tradition in Kemer stemming from the Romans, and it is well worth visiting Phaselis which in its day was an important port city with three harbours. To the western end of the city is Hadrian's gate, public baths, theatres and the agora. These places can all be explored easily on foot, however if you want an extra layer of cultural and historical depth you can hire a local guide.
