One of Turkey's popular holiday vacation spots, Antalya is an engaging city. The region is immersed in sunshine for 300 days of the year, making it a hot spot for sunbathing, swimming and activities like wind-surfing, water-skiing, sailing, mountain climbing and caving. The Toros (Taurus) Mountains meander down to the sea forming a rocky coastline with
many secluded coves. Because of the immense differences in terrain, during the spring months, one can ski in the mornings and swim in the warm Mediterranean waters in the afternoon. It is no wonder that many vacationers find refuge in this Mediterranean paradise.
Along with the sunbathing and activities, Antalya has a rich, historical background.
