Turkish Riviera Holidays: Beaches, Sun and Great Value
The Turkish Riviera stretches along Turkey's southern Mediterranean coast and is one of the best-value sunshine destinations within easy reach of the UK. It combines long sandy beaches, warm clear sea and famously generous all-inclusive resorts.
UK families and couples return for the sun, the value and the relaxed welcome, with a mix of busy resort towns and quieter stretches to choose from.
Where to stay on the Turkish Riviera
The coast is packed with large resorts. Doganay Beach Club is a five-star beachfront resort in the Konakli region of Alanya (Antalya), giving families and couples a big, facility-rich base right on the sea.
Getting there and when to go
Flights from the UK serve the region, with transfers along the coast to your resort. The Riviera is warm and dry through the summer, hottest in July and August, with late spring and early autumn offering pleasant heat and fewer crowds.
Beaches and resorts
Expect long sandy and pebbly beaches with clear, swimmable water, backed by big resorts and lively seafronts in the main towns and calmer stretches elsewhere.
Food and things to do
Turkish cooking is a highlight, with mezze, grilled meats and fresh fish widely available. Beyond the beach there are water sports, boat trips and easy days exploring the coast and its towns.
Who it suits
The Turkish Riviera suits families and couples who want sun, sand and strong value, especially fans of all-inclusive resorts. There is enough variety to find both lively and quiet bases.
