Kemer, located in the Antalya province of Turkey, has long been a favourite for British holidaymakers looking for a reliable blend of sunshine, sea, and high-quality resort living. Whether you are flying out from Manchester or Liverpool, this coastal gem offers a straightforward escape where the Mediterranean meets the dramatic backdrop of the Taurus Mountains.

The area is particularly well-suited for families and couples who want a mix of relaxation and outdoor activity. With a climate that promises long, warm summers and mild shoulder seasons, it is a practical choice for anyone looking to secure an all-inclusive package that covers all the essentials, leaving you to focus entirely on the pool, the beach, or a cold drink in the shade.

Where to Stay in Kemer

Kemer offers a diverse range of accommodation, from intimate four-star properties to expansive five-star luxury resorts. For those seeking a beachfront experience, the Seven Seas Hotel Life provides a wonderful coastal setting in the heart of Kemer. If you prefer a location that highlights the local landscape, the Crystal Prestige Pearl Collection is perfectly situated between the Mediterranean Sea and the Taurus Mountains in Goynuk. Travellers looking for high-end luxury might consider the NG Phaselis Bay, a premium beachfront resort in Goynuk, or the Nirvana Dolce Vita, which is nestled between the sea and the mountains in the Tekirova district. For a comprehensive holiday experience, the Swandor Kemer is an all-inclusive beachfront resort located in Kiriş, while those looking for a comfortable four-star stay can look at the Viking Garden Hotel or the resort property of Marti Myra in Tekirova.

Beaches and Coastal Resorts

The coastline of Kemer is the main draw for most visitors. The beaches here are varied, ranging from pebbled shorelines to more manicured resort sections where you can find sun loungers and parasols readily available. Because many hotels are located right on the water, you often have immediate access to the crystal-clear Mediterranean sea. The proximity of the mountains to the coast means the scenery is a cut above many other Mediterranean destinations, providing a stunning visual backdrop as you swim or sunbathe.

When to Go and Getting There

Most British travellers head to Kemer between May and October when the weather is consistently hot and dry. July and August are the peak months for those who love high temperatures, while May, June, and September offer a slightly more temperate climate that is perfect for those who want to explore the local area without the intense midday heat. Kemer is easily accessible via flights into Antalya, followed by a relatively short and scenic transfer journey along the coast.

Things to Do and Food

While the allure of an all-inclusive resort is hard to beat, Kemer itself invites you to explore. The town centre provides a charming spot for a stroll, with plenty of opportunities to browse local shops or enjoy a traditional Turkish coffee. For the more active, the region is ideal for watersports, and the rugged terrain surrounding the town offers plenty of scope for walks that showcase the natural beauty of the Antalya region. Dining is a highlight of any trip to Turkey, and in Kemer, you can expect a mix of international buffet-style options at your resort and authentic local flavours featuring fresh produce, grilled meats, and local pastries.

Who it Suits

Kemer is an excellent destination for families who need the convenience of kid-friendly facilities and for couples who want a romantic setting without the frantic pace of a major city. Because the region is well-catered for package travellers, everything from airport transfers to excursions is easy to organise. It is an honest, welcoming destination that prioritises your comfort and provides a reliable sunshine getaway.
