Kemer Beach, also known as Ayışığı Plajı, is a municipal beach situated near the town of Kemer in the Antalya region of Turkey. It is renowned for its warm, clear waters that carry a high salt density characteristic of the Mediterranean Sea. This salinity can be harsh on the eyes and nose, therefore it is advisable for swimmers to use a mask or swimming glasses.
The beach is distinctive due to its pebbly entrance leading to the sea, negating the need for water shoes. However, not all parts of the beach are pebbly; some areas are free from stones and easy to navigate on foot. Despite the presence of pebbles, visitors are cautioned to wear water shoes or slippers as the stones can become extremely hot.
In terms of amenities, Kemer Beach offers free sun loungers equipped with mattresses and large umbrellas for visitors. A tap providing fresh water is also available nearby. However, there are no beach bars or restaurants in the immediate vicinity, so visitors are encouraged to bring their own food and drinks.
Kemer Beach is known for its tranquility and cleanliness. It is typically not crowded, with free spaces readily available during the morning and afternoon hours. However, on sunny days, the beach can become fully occupied. For those seeking more active pursuits, water sports activities are offered on the beach.
In addition to its natural beauty, Kemer Beach offers a breathtaking view of the surrounding mountains, contributing to its reputation as one of the most beautiful beaches in the region. As the sun can be intense, visitors are advised to use sun protection of SPF 50+.
Despite being a popular destination, Kemer Beach does not currently have any accommodation or reservation sites available. Visitors are recommended to find lodgings in the nearby town of Kemer.
