the old port of antalya is a must to visit and have to get in one of the Boats for the round in the sea ... be careful they ask a lot for the round you have to ask more that one boat and do not pay blindly ... go for the 1 hour round if you want to have the taste of the sea .... you can arrange a trip with a group through your guide but for sure it will coast you more
Here you can take a boat trip along the coast to Lara Beach passing the Duden Falls, quite spectacular from the sea.
As it is low season when we get here, you do not need to fight for a picture and the boats are built based on lots of pirate theme - good picture moment!
There are vendors selling mussels along the streets...try it if your stomach can take street seafood
Many pretty looking restaurants as you walk towards the old town.
I've got to visit the old city and port vicinity in a wonderfully clear winter day, the colors and views are truly amazing. It's posible to relax, sit on a terrace and have a drink, or stroll through the narrow streets, plenty of scenic view points, restaurants, boutique hotels. Worth exploring more than the time I had, and will definitely come back
A walk around the port is fascinating for viewing the ships and people. The majority of the ships tended to have a pirate theme and it was interesting to see how one would try to outdo the other.
Lots of little shops and vendors here. Interesting to view and the people are very friendly.
Good place to catch a cruise to see the falls.
SO if you are by the port and hot and tired, it's a decent enough ride and ok to do. Just make sure you haggle over the prices because what they quote you at first is three times the amount you could/should pay. No free drinks or anything come with it, so get ready to pay for any extra's. The ride is much shorter than they promise too, so don't be disappointed.
