WHY HONEYMOON IN TURKEY?

Because Antalya (Turkish Riviera) is in Turkey : In the Mediterranean region, where even in the coldest months of January and February the temperature of the sea is 17 C and the outdoor temperature is between 10 C and 11C, seasons are merely names on the calender. Of course, this is the main reason for the great variety of tourism available in this region.

In Antalya, the pine-clad Toros (Taurus) Mountains sweep down to the sparkling clear sea resulting in an irregular coastline of rocky headlands and secluded coves.

The region, bathed in sunshine for 300 days of the year, is a paradise for sunbathing, swimming and sports activities like wind surfing, water skiing, sailing, mountain climbing and spelunking. If you come to Antalya in March or April, you can ski in the mornings and in the afternoons swim in the warm waters of the Mediterranean. Awaiting your discovery are important historical sites set in a landscape of pine forests, olive and citrus groves and palm, avocado and banana plantations.

The Turkish Riviera is the tourism capital of Turkey. Its full range of accomodation, from tourist class to deluxe hotels, and the hospitable people of Antalya will make your holiday comfortable and enjoyable.

Surrounded by amazing scenery of sharp contrasts, Antalya, Turkey's principal holiday resort, is an attractive city with shady palm-lined boulevards and a prize-winning marina. In the picturesque old quarter of Kaleici, narrow, winding streets and old wooden houses about the ancient city walls.
