Side —
Side, on Turkey’s Mediterranean coast, blends golden beaches with echoes of antiquity. Once a bustling Greco-Roman port, today it charms visitors with ancient ruins set against the turquoise sea and the dramatic backdrop of the Taurus Mountains. Both vibrant and intimate, Side is a destination where history and leisure flow seamlessly together.
Must-sees:
- Temple of Apollo: A striking ancient landmark by the sea, especially magical at sunset.
- Side Theatre: One of the best-preserved Roman theatres in Turkey, once seating 15,000 spectators.
- Side Old Town: Cobbled lanes lined with shops, cafés and fragments of ancient columns.
- Side Museum: Housed in a restored Roman bath, displaying mosaics, statues and artefacts from the region.
- Manavgat Waterfall: A short drive away, a natural beauty spot surrounded by shaded tea gardens.
Culinary culture:
Side’s cuisine reflects the richness of the Turkish Riviera. Freshly grilled fish and meze platters dominate the coast, while traditional dishes such as gözleme (stuffed flatbread) and kebabs are favourites in the old town. Don’t miss baklava or künefe for dessert, best enjoyed with strong Turkish tea or coffee.
Dive deeper:
Explore Side’s coastline by boat, discovering hidden coves and sea caves along the turquoise shore. Try water sports such as parasailing or diving, or venture inland to hike in the Taurus Mountains. The lively Manavgat Bazaar is perfect for bargaining over spices, textiles and handicrafts, offering a colourful glimpse of local life.
Good to know:
Side is about one hour from Antalya International Airport, with regular transfers available. The best time to visit is during the summer months (June to August), when the beaches and nightlife are at their most vibrant. The local currency is the Turkish lira (TRY), though euros are often accepted in tourist areas.
