You’ll be hypnotized by the waters of Kas, a Mediterranean seaside town located in southern Turkey’s province of Antalya. Kas beaches are among the best in the country – which is why we’ve dedicated a whole article to this little strip of a long coast. If it as the photo of an epic turquoise beach that convinced you to visit Turkey, it is very likely to be shot in Kas.

1. Kaputas Beach

And then God created Kaputas…
This is one of the most spectacular beaches in all of Turkey, much less the best of all of Kas beaches. It’s located in the middle of the Sleeping Giant rock.

You’ll either have to come with your own car or via the minibusses that frequently passing through. Just be forewarned that if you do come by car, there are not many places to park, so it’ll be better if you arrive early and claim a spot for yourselves. You’ll have to walk down a number of stairs to get to the beach.

Here there is a cafe owned by the municipality, and you’ll be able to get everything you need there. There are beach services such as toilets, showers and sun chairs. Click here for the location.

2. Seyrek Cakil Beach

Located close to Kaputas Beach, Seyrek Cakil is a small, untouched beach on the side of the road. There are no restaurants or cafes or any other services such as toilets and showers. This is an excellent place for people who want to escape the crowds and be alone with nature. Click here for the location.

3. Patara Beach

If you don’t want to go to a rocky beach, then this is a good place for you. But if you want somewhere you can relax away from other beachgoing families, then you’re in the wrong spot. Everyone comes here since this is a popular, public beach.

This is also the Caretta turtle’s most important breeding place in Turkey. It’s important that you don’t disturb the sand too much, like when setting up an umbrella, as the eggs of the turtles are deposited under the sand. Make sure to leave the beach before sundown as that’s when the turtles use the beach. Click here for the location.

 

4. Akcagerme Beach

As far as children’s favorite Kas beaches, Akcagerme Beach tops the list because there is a calm sea, an aqua park, tennis courts and plenty of other kids to play with. If you didn’t get the idea, this is a family beach.

It’s close to the center, and it’s a beautiful bay. You can get here from the center by taking a minibus, but you can also walk if you want. Because a vocational high school operates the beach, the prices are incredibly reasonable, but the quality of the service is “amateur.” Nevertheless, a lot of people come here.

5. Asmaalti Beach

Asmaalti is right next to the harbor in the center and is the closest point to the sea. It’s also the most enjoyable spot to watch the sunset. Because of its location, it gets crowded during peak season. Click here for the location.

6. Hidayet’s Bay

This is a great bay; however, everything here has been commercialized, and you’ll have to pay for it all, from parking to town tolls. The overriding opinion of people who come here is that while the place is gorgeous, the way it is operated is horrible. 

The sea is wonderfully calm. Because the sea comes from underground water, you’ll be half swimming in Antalya and half in the Baltic Sea.  Click here for the location.

7. Kucuk Cakil Beach (Little Pebble Beach)

Ok, confession: As far as Kas beaches go, we have to admit that Kucuk Cakil Beach is probably not the one of your dreams. The beach itself is practically nonexistent, and there’s only a very narrow strip of land where you can enter the sea. But it’s located in the center of Kas and is easy to get to. The beach is quite clean and shallow, which makes it a popular one.

You can think of this as the back side of Kas Port. And for any of you who have problems with their knees, let this be a warning for you: there are lots of stairs. If you come to this beach, you’ll have to constantly use their stairs – either to get to where you were sitting or to get into the water.

There are 7-8 beaches near to Küçükçakıl, one of them including Derya Beach, which is located in front of the hotels. Hotel guests can invite people who are not staying there. These are the most vibrant and lively places where you can swim in Kas. There’s a party environment in the afternoon with cocktails and music. Click here for the location.
