On the Turkish Riviera, traditional fishing villages such as Üçagiz nestle alongside the modern resort destinations of Marmaris and Antalya. Unspoiled yellow sand beaches and pine forests line this history-rich coast whose illustrious former residents include St. Paul. Buses make easy connections between the coves, castles and cities beside the turquoise waters of what the Turks call the White Sea. Dont miss the awe-inspiring eternal fires of Chimaera at Olympos most impressive at night.
Approximately 60 miles east of Antalya lies Side, another once important port town in antiquity. Side has become a popular holiday destination all by itself, but is well worth a day trip from Antalya. The village offers picturesque, narrow streets and lovely gardens while the long, white beaches invite swimming. Imposing monuments of antiquity, such as the Roman bath and the columns of the Apollo temple by the sea, complete the picture of a perfect combination of modern-day vacation pleasure and the treasures of history.
In the summer months, visitors arrive in droves to discover Manavgat's river and waterfall, as well as the nearby ancient Greco-Roman ruins. But the city itself—and the locals who frequent its sprawling street bazaars and eateries—remain unphased by the influx, with life continuing as it has for centuries.
