4
(1)
Phaselis Beach is a beautiful swimming area located within the Phaselis Ancient City region near Kemer, Turkey. The beach is known for its clear blue water, peaceful atmosphere, and scenic surroundings of pine forests and historic ruins. It is an excellent spot for swimming, relaxing, and enjoying nature.

What to See & Do

  • 🏊 Swim in the exceptionally clear and calm waters 🌊 of the three protected bays that once served as ancient harbors ⚓
  • 🧘 Relax on the smooth pebble beach shaded by fragrant pine trees 🌲 that stretch right down to the water’s edge 🐚
  • 🏛️ Enjoy unique views of the ancient ruins 🏺 situated just steps away from the sand, blending history with nature 📜
  • 🤿 Engage in snorkeling in the shallow, crystalline waters to spot small fish 🐟 darting among submerged ancient stones ⚓

How to Get There

  • 🚗 Drive from Kemer for around twenty minutes 🏁 following the D400 highway toward the Phaselis Ancient City 🏛️
  • 🚌 Board a local bus (Dolmuş) heading toward Tekirova and ask to stop near the main Phaselis entrance 📍
  • 🅿️ Arrive by car and take advantage of the convenient parking available inside the Phaselis archaeological area 🚐 for a small fee 🎟️

Travel Tips

  • 👟 Bring a pair of swim shoes to help you navigate the pebbles 🪨 comfortably while entering the sea 🌊
  • 🧴 Carry plenty of water and high-factor sunscreen ☀️ as the Mediterranean sun can be very intense even under the trees 🌡️
