10 Most Preferred Beaches in Antalya
Kaputas Beach
Kaputaş, one of the most beautiful beaches of Antalya with its turquoise waters, is located on the coastal road between Kaş and Kalkan. It is also known as the canyon mouth. Although the way to go is grueling, reaching turquoise waters with a beautiful view is enough to relieve the tiredness of this road. In order to descend from the slope to the beach, it is necessary to descend a ladder consisting of 178 steps. The water of the beach is turquoise and relatively cold compared to the other beaches of Antalya, due to the fact that the water coming from underground passes here. Sea shoes can be a good choice as the beach is a mixture of white pebbles and sand.
