Side: An Alluring Blend of Ancient Wonders and Azure Beaches


Journey to the southern coast of Türkiye, where a picturesque town straddles the past and present, history and leisure, and ancient ruins meet sun-kissed beaches. Welcome to Side, a captivating resort town in the Antalya region, perfect for travelers seeking both historical exploration and tranquil relaxation.

Side, once an important Roman port, enthralls visitors with its well-preserved archaeological sites. The ancient ruins of the Temple of Apollo, with its iconic marble columns overlooking the Mediterranean, are a sight to behold, especially during sunset. The colossal amphitheater, which once echoed with the applause of 15,000 spectators, still stands in its grandeur, a testament to the town's vibrant past.

A stroll through the charming, narrow streets of Side brings you to the Antalya Museum. The museum houses an impressive collection of artifacts from the region's various epochs, offering a comprehensive insight into Side's historical journey. Don't miss the Roman-era sculptures, Byzantine coin collection, and the intricately designed sarcophagi.

While Side's historical allure is undeniable, its natural beauty and leisure activities are equally attractive. Two sandy beaches, one on each side of the peninsula, are a sunbather's dream. The calm, shallow waters of the Eastern Beach make it family-friendly, while the Western Beach, with its wide expanse of golden sand, is perfect for water sports enthusiasts.

Venture into the crystal-clear Mediterranean waters for a refreshing swim, a diving excursion, or a thrilling jet ski ride. Or embark on a boat trip to the stunning Manavgat Waterfalls, a hidden gem just a short distance from Side.

As the sun dips below the horizon, Side's vibrant nightlife awakens. From buzzing beach bars and nightclubs playing live music to quieter taverns serving local raki, there's something for every taste.

Culinary delights in Side reflect its coastal location and Turkish heritage. Savor freshly-caught seafood, traditional Turkish mezes, and kebabs while enjoying the sea breeze at a beachside restaurant. And don't leave without trying Gözleme, a traditional Turkish flatbread, typically stuffed with cheese, spinach, or meat.

Side offers a unique combination of history, sun-soaked relaxation, thrilling activities, gastronomic delights, and memorable sunsets. Whether you're a history buff, a beach lover, or a foodie, Side's charm will captivate your heart.
