Kemer, Turkey

Kemer Overview

Natural beauty: A 2020 Kemer holiday is fantastic for natural beauty. Sitting close to the western part of the Taurus Mountains, on holidays to Kemer you can enjoy stunning views inland of rocky cliff faces and verdant green forests. Kemer is amazing place to visit from other resorts too, either for a quick hike or a whole holiday’s worth of rambling!

Lively Marina: The fully equipped Marina in Kemer holds over 320 boats, and as such many sailors from all over the world make a stop here. The area around the marina is lined with restaurants, bars and clubs, which make for a relaxed night time setting as the street lights gleam against the water.

Activities in Kemer

Diving holidays: Although the beaches in Kemer aren’t Turkey’s best, the water is very calm and amazingly clear. That means it’s great for diving holidays, as the high visibility makes it likely you’ll catch a glimpse of colourful fish and underwater plants.

Boat Tours: The well-facilitated Marina in Kemer holds many boats offering tours of the nearby areas. A rural village until the 1980’s, Kemer holidays are still relatively unspoilt by tourism, and a short ride on a boat will take you to some stunning scenic locations for those all-important holiday snaps.

Beaches in Kemer

Moonlight Beach: Situated on a calm, peaceful bay, this picturesque stretch of water is surrounded by dense forest and sweet smelling lemon trees. The mix of soft sand and shingle is also far more welcoming than the stony land of the Eastern Beach.

Eastern Beach: This stony stretch of coast is understandably not as popular as the more famous Moonlight Beach. Still, it’s conveniently close to many hotels in Kemer and the lovely marina nearby makes it an easy place to visit to top up your tan.

Shopping in Kemer

Tourist shops: The shops in Kemer are aimed squarely at the holiday market, offering mainly shiny souvenirs and decorative ornaments. You’ll also come across stalls selling original crafts, quality leather and hand-made carpets.
