Read more about our holiday in Kemer in Antalya: A splash in the sea, a stroll on the beach and a journey back to prehistoric times! 

This summer, we decided to explore Kemer, Antalya, intrigued by the DinoPark I’ve had on our list for a while. But we also discovered a new region on the Turkish Coast, with lots of kid friendly and family fun.

Things to do in Kemer

1. Kemer Merkezi : town centre, clock tower, pedestrian shopping street, statues in garden (1-2 hours)

2. Kemer Marina  : Halk public beach with very pebbly sand!, restaurants, playground near beach (2-3 hours)  

3. Dinopark : Goynuk  (3-4 hours) See special  post on Instagram.

4. Moonlight Park : private beach clubs with softer sand , Yoruk Park : historical display of Turkish tribes plus majestic sea views (1 hour – depending on time at beach) 

Other things to do : Mount Olympus Teleferik (cable car) which we didn’t do this time, but I was very tempted to do so hopefully next time!

Food:
There are plenty restaurants around. They range in mid to high prices. I recommend the Dominos as it was as super cool inside with the airconditioner and the menu and food was good.

Getting around: 
Taxis were charging set rates in €. 100 TL for basic 10 minute journeys.
Walking is possible but it’s quite hot. I recommend strollers or scooters for kids to get around. 

I recommend 2 -3 days in Kemer , including spending some time at your hotel pool to break up the daily outings. Your itinerary with small kids could look like:

Day 1: Travel + chill at hotel pool. Take a walk in town centre in the evening and have dinner. 
Day 2: Olympus Teleferik . Moonlight beach, Yoruk Park, Marina walk + dinner
Day 3: Check out of hotel and visit Dino Park, Goynuk on way back to airport (or another area in Antalya past airport eg Lara, Side, Belek)
