Which harbour do boat trips depart from in Antalya?

If you're staying in Belek, Side, or Alanya, hotel pickup transfers you to the departure point — you don't need to make your own way to the marina.

What is the best boat trip from Antalya?
The most popular boat trip is the
Suluada full-day tour — Antalya's Maldives — with its shallow turquoise lagoon and multiple swim stops along the pine coast. For a shorter option, the half-day harbour cruise passing beneath Düden Waterfall is a strong choice at €25 per person. Families often prefer the Phaselis three-bay trip for its calm, sheltered swimming. For the best possible day, book a
private boat and set your own route.
Do boat trips from Antalya include hotel pickup?
Yes — hotel pickup is included from Belek, Kemer, Side, Alanya, and Antalya city centre on all boat trips. Confirm your hotel name at the time of booking and the vehicle will be at your reception at the agreed time. Pickup is typically between 08:00 and 09:30 depending on departure harbour and your hotel location.
What is the best time of year for boat trips in Antalya?
Boat trips in Antalya run from April through October. The best months are May, June, and September — calm seas, air temperatures of 25–32°C, and manageable crowds at the swim stops. July and August are peak season with busier boats and hotter decks, but the sea is at its warmest (28°C). April and October offer quieter trips with spring/autumn light that makes coastal photography particularly good. December–March: boats do not typically operate.
Is Suluada worth the boat trip from Antalya?
Yes — Suluada (sometimes called Antalya's Maldives) is consistently rated the most impressive day out on the Antalya coast. The water clarity in the lagoon is exceptional — shallow enough to see the seabed in detail from the boat deck. The full-day trip takes around 7–8 hours, departing from Kemer Marina and stopping at multiple coves along the pine-lined coast before reaching the island. It is a long day, so it suits travellers with at least 4–5 days in the region. Read our full
Suluada guide for route details and what to expect.
Can I combine a boat trip with other activities in Antalya?
Yes — several tours combine the boat experience with land visits. The Antalya city highlights tour combines the Old Harbour boat cruise with Kaleiçi Old Town and Düden Waterfalls in a single day. You can also pair a morning boat trip with an afternoon city tour or visit to Aspendos. For fully custom combinations,

The boat will have shade areas but Mediterranean sun is intense — apply sunscreen before departure.
