About the excursion

Suluada is known as the Turkish Maldives. Its turquoise water is clear down to twenty-five meters, and the island's shores and nearby coves draw you in with white sand and sea caves.

Highlights

  • Suluada Island
  • Several coves
  • Akseki Bay

Full description

Suluada Island sits off the mainland near the village of Adrasan, and the only way to get there is by sea, which makes this boat tour from Kemer the perfect way to see it. The water around the island is so clear that you can see the seabed twenty meters or more below the surface, and with its white sand and rocky shores, the place feels like an almost untouched paradise.

The island has several coves for swimming. One is known as Love Beach, and another, Fener, has earned the nickname Maldives Bay for its striking turquoise color. There's also a cove full of grottoes you can explore right from the water, and one with unusually cold currents.

A real highlight is Akseki Bay, also called the Bay of Love. It has a small grotto, and the water here is noticeably colder than the surrounding sea. Local legend says it's the sorrow of a concubine taken to a harem and parted from her beloved, though the real reason is underwater currents.

These waters are home to the rare loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta), which nests along the Antalya coast, so building is banned in the area. Besides swimming, you'll enjoy a meal cooked by the chef on board and a relaxed cruise along the scenic coastline.
