Pretty place with a lot of restaurants, pubs and tattoo parlors. Very fun place. People are walking, playing with their dogs, swimming and having fun. Good place to chill, eat and have fun.

Quite busy, sandy and shallow though, great for swimming. Some litter. Loads of cafes, shops, some public toilets, showers/ taps for cleaning off sand. Boat trips and inflatables for hire. Loads of loungers and parasols to rent.

An excellent beachfront, absolutely huge so you can find somewhere to rest and relax, they even have access accessible ramps and toilets. There is a wonderful long promenade for you to roll and stroll along, plenty of bench style seating, literally hundreds of restaurants bars, shops and clubs for you to choose from. Whatever you are into, I assure you, you can find it here!

One of the best and most-liked beaches in Turkey. Affordable with 35TL (2022) for two long chairs plus umbrella as one of the businesses is run by the local municipality. The bottom is mostly fine sand, dotted by some rock and seaweed. Good for families with children and couples but try to come early as the place is very popular and can be overcrowded in the afternoon. Water is mostly clean in the morning but gets choppy and murky as more people join. As a quick hint: Bring your own chair and portable low table to the western end (right end if you are facing the sea) of the beach and enjoy the evening calm and coolness. You do not see the sunset but as the crowds disappear the water is incredibly beautiful. Swim as much as you like as it slowly gets darker. The place is safe and peaceful. There are other nearby beaches but with the exception of one, all are either rocky, littered or too isolated. This one is metres away from the restaurants. Visit at the right time and see for yourself.

very lively beach, soft sand and the promanade is bustling with shops bars and restaurants

Altinkum Beach in Didim truly lives up to its name. The sand is fine, golden, and the sea is almost glass-like in its clarity. Due to its shallow nature, the beach is highly suitable for families with children, and even non-swimmers can easily enter the water. It's quieter in the mornings, out even as it gets a bit crowded in the afternoons, the atmosphere remains pleasant and vibrant. Strolling along the beach, enjoying an ice cream, or sitting in one of the seaside cafes was all a lovely experience. In the evenings, the beach strip becomes a lively, bustling place. Watching the sunset was a perfect moment of tranquility.

Busy beach Some parts lovely and clean Down by Tuntas hotel dirty

We loved it. The most scary attractions are for 13 yr and up. Make sure to check the “zero-gravity” one - you are in a centrifuge get stuck to the wall when the floor goes down. If you open your mouth - you can’t get it shut. Not for people who are claustrophobic or have medical conditions though… one ride on any one of the attractions is 150 TRY, can be paid with a card, or 10 rides for 1,200 TRY. Best visited when it’s dark.

I Got charged double (paid on my card and paid cash). Cashier didn't inform me that payment had been taken from my card and in the end I paid cash for more tokens. Be careful when paying with card.

The rides are poorly maintained, and the staff are extremely unfriendly—almost like they're looking for a fight. They show favoritism and operate the rides however they like. Last time on the gondola ride, it didn’t even last two minutes—just went up and down four times and stopped. The operator was even laughing about it. I strongly advise against going, and I’m telling all my tourist and foreign friends the same: do not come here. People like this shouldn't be making money. There's absolutely no sense of safety, and if anything goes wrong, the staff might even pose a danger to you.

Generally good. Some rides after sunset get fairly busy. Prices this year felt quite dear at 100TL per ride.

Amazing Lunapark walking distance from my resort. There are attractions for everyone, starting from small kids to adults. Nice and friendly environment. Highly recommend to visit at least once Kurt Lunapark

Went for a walk down there from our hotel park was small friendly rides reasonable with a couple of rides for elder kids and some for smaller kids just outside of the town worth a visit pass a hr

Ideal evening fun for tourist families. Lots of tame rides and activities for little ones and a few scary rides for the daring. Stunning views along the coast if you visit while there's still some daylight.

This ancient Greek temple remains are beautiful, the way the weathered column bases have worn down over time looks amazing. I didn't go in but walked around the outside but could still see most of it. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area!

On out way back from put holiday in Bodrum we decided to visit some historic place and googled a few options, not really knowing what to expect. We had already seen all the really well-known ones such as Ephesos, Aspendos, Troy, Pergamon etc. So we didn’t really have high expectations. What was my surprise when after driving basically to the end of town, amongst small houses, where the roads were kind of narrow we saw this beauty. It was magnificent from the first second and we couldn’t have been more in awe. It is an absolute gem, very well preserved and definitely worth visiting. One of the most important Apollo-Temples in the world, in the Antiquity it used to be visited by various people before they had to make an important decision. The architecture is impressive, the columns are symmetrically built. As we were visiting there was an event being prepared. Couldn’t think of a more beautiful location. Absolutely recommend visiting it.

One of the most impressive ancient Greek temples - the temple of Apollo in Didyma, impresses with its safety and its scale! Highly recommend to visit it if you are going to stay for vacation somewhere nearby. Convenient access, located in the historical center of the city, there are many cafes nearby with a view of the temple. Entrance fee is 50TL. Parking right near the temple is very difficult, so I recommend to park a car in a special parking for tourists about 200m far from the temple.

Didyma history Hidden among rolling hills only a few miles from the scenic coast of southeastern Turkey, the ancient site of Didyma is famous from legendary times. Here was a natural spring where the beautiful Leto is supposed to have spent an hour of love with Zeus, then giving birth to the twins Artemis and Apollo (didymoi in Greek). The most important oracle site in Asia Minor, its pronouncements to Croesus, Alexander the Great and other great kings altered the course of human history. Didyma was originally a pre-Greek cult sanctuary centered around a sacred grove and holy spring. The remains of the earliest temples, which lie within and beneath the later buildings, have been dated to the 8th and 7th centuries BC. These consist of a walled enclosure measuring approximately 24 x 10 m, an open-air sanctuary, a portico 16 m in length, a sacred well and a votive altar. By the 7th century BC, the Ionian Greeks had adopted the site, dedicated it to the worship of Apollo, and the fame of its oracle had spread across the eastern Mediterranean and into Egypt. The earliest temple of Apollo at the site was an unroofed Ionic building enclosing the sacred spring, laurel trees and a small inner temple. These structures were completed about 560-550 BC when the site was in charge of a family of priests known as the Branchids, the descendants of Bronchos, a youth beloved of Apollo. The cult statue in the Didyma temple dated from 500 BC, was made of bronze and depicted Apollo Philesios seizing a deer. The temple was located approximately 10 kilometers south of the city of Miletus, inland from the small port of Panormos. In the Archaic period, when the first temple of Apollo was constructed, a Sacred Way, lined with sculptures, sarcophagi and statues of lions and sphinxes, led from Panormos to the sanctuary. Pilgrims arriving by sea would disembark at the port of Panormos and walk the Sacred Way to the oracle of Apollo. The Persians destroyed a second and larger temple at the same site in 494 BC. while it was still under construction. Little is known about activities at Didyma during the 5th and 4th centuries BC. and it seems to have suffered a decline. After his capture of the city of Miletus in 334 BC, Alexander the Great placed the administration of the oracle in the hands of the city. The sanctuary of the oracle was revived in 331 BC when the sacred spring was rediscovered on the occasion of a visit from Alexander (during which time the oracle proclaimed him “the son of Zeus”). In the following decades Seleucus embellished the sanctuary and commissioned the new Hellenistic Temple of Apollo (about 300 BC the cult statue of Apollo that had been stolen by the Persians was returned to Didyma). The sanctuary grew in fame, attracting thousands of pilgrims from throughout the Hellenistic world, and work on the temple continued for the next 200 years. This temple, measuring 51 by 110 meters, was the third largest structure of the Greek world, being exceeded in size only by those at Ephesus and Samos. Although the Hellenistic Didymaion was of greater dimensions than the archaic temple, it was merely an adaptation of the original plan. The massive temple had a total of 124 columns (many of which were never erected) and was embellished with the most wonderful sculptures of Greek artistry. One particularly enormous column weighs 70 tons. In 278 BC the sanctuary suffered under the raids of Gauls, but construction work on the temple was resumed. In 70 BC pirates sacked the sanctuary and work on the temple was terminated. The

The site is relatively small, but rich with ruins. When we visited there has been some construction work on going, nevertheless you can wonder around the site. The site has two door ways with long long ancient looby, with inscriptions all along the walls and wonderful marbled floor that lead to an open space. Visiting the whole site will not take more than 15 minutes including taking some photos.

It's a really magnificent place. It's charming and you can feel the history. It's in a region of Didim where you can see the real Turkish atmosphere away from the resort. It's actually really hot so be ready for that. Outside there are real coffee places which I absolutely needed 😂 the entrance fee is 15 liras. I liked it more than Ephesus.

Szuper nice place! If you are staying in Didim it is a must to visit. The view is especially nice at sunset. The surrounding area is charming with greek like restaurant, building. It is not a huge area. I can highly recommend it!

The site is closed indeed, as they are actively building a new entrance pavilion (I have seen no restoration being done on the site itself). Still you can get a good view from behind the fence and you can also walk around the temple behind the fence - there is a paved path, getting views from several angles - it still gives an unforgettable grandeur impression. The security cameras on the perimeter make sure nobody scales the fence. The temple is so massive it’s surprising it has suffered such severe damage, but apparently a powerful earthquake has destroyed it in 7th century A.D.

I visited the Temple of Apollo in early September on a weekday, and it was a great, with hardly any other tourists. The quiet made it easy to take in the atmosphere. We skipped the headphone guide since there are plenty of well-written boards around the site. You’re free to walk right up the temple steps and wander around at your own pace, which I loved. The inner sanctum, where the oracle once spoke, still carries a strong presence. The acoustics there are striking; even a soft voice carries. If you’re after an authentic ancient site that hasn’t been overrun by crowds, this is a place I’d highly recommend. It feels both accessible and special.

Beautiful ruins. Little tip... Admission is only 6 euros per person so save yourself some money and dont buy a tour. It a 12 minute walk off the No.4 bus route. The same bus will take you to the Mavisehir Market. The bus is 25 lira each which is a bargain but it can get very very crammed.

It is a very very great historical place and it is in quite good situation and well preserved… Definitely recommend to visit it… We visited the Temple of Apollo and it was really really great due to the fact first of all that the facade lightings were very lovely and second it was marvellous to run away from day heat so by the evening visit you really can enjoy the the site in a more different way because the evening hours provides more cooler temperature and on the other hand it has also less crowded environment…

The Temple of Apollo in Didim is an absolute gem! From the moment you arrive, you're greeted by the awe-inspiring ruins. It wasn’t just a temple; it was home to one of the most famous oracles of the ancient Greek world, second only to Delphi. Pilgrims from across the Mediterranean traveled there to consult the oracle, making it a major spiritual and cultural hub. You should definitely visit this historical place.

Visited with my partner and two young kids and all loved it, Beautiful Greek ruins. Definitely worth the visit if staying in the didim/Altinkum area

Its a very pretty and popular place a lot to explore city centre the cost for a taxi to this place is 250tl. The ticket to go in is 300tl per person you can only pay in TL.

Actually the beach wasn’t so clean, maybe that’s because of the strong wind. Nevertheless the sea is great, it really doesn’t get deep for a very long distance, it is little rocky but that doesn’t bother, it is mostly sandy. We paid 60 TL for two places. My 3 yo baby didn’t like it )) but I was impressed with this place. Not as crowds as Altynkun

Lovely little beach and bar.

Very nice coffee shop great food and very reasonably priced.. the beach is amazing

Really good beach, right side where the rocks are is populated with sea urchins. It's not deep even you go further away. It is a bit crowded at 3-4 o'clock but nearly everyone leaves at 5-6 o'clock so you can enjoy an empty sea. I suggest bringing your own food because the little cafe is a bit pricey (a sandwich with cheese is 40 TL or a bit more than 2 dolars). Btw you have to pay for the umbrella and 2 seats, the price for them is 60 TL (little more than 3 dolars). Other than that it is really good.

The mostly sandy beach is managed and with its shallow water well suited for families with children. Not very scenic, usually quite crowded, easy to reach by car.

A nice bay, out of the way from the crowded beach of Altinkum in Didim. You need a taxi ride or a car to get here. The water is nice and the beach is sandy. However, some parts of the beach is rocky as you go into the water. They have one cafe on one side of the bay/beach.

Very peaceful.Not open yet.

Nice place to sit with a cold beer and people watch, great view of the beach. Good menu and food is presented well, although portions on the small side, staff are the asset, attentive and English speaking.

Had two wonderful meals here. In fact this was definitely my favourite place for food. First time I had fillet steak. I'm fussy with my steak but this was cooked to perfection. Second time I went I ordered chicken shish kebab. Again another lovely meal and very tasty. The staff are very welcoming and can't do enough for you. I would recommend anyone try this place if they are looking for a nice meal on Altinkum front.

Have been coming here for over 20 years. The best restaurant in Altinkum, food is amazing. The staff are very friendly, they will help you if you need anything. Never any hassle from them ti try and get you in the restaurant. Will come back for the next 20 years!

Very friendly staff and professional. It's a little pricey but expected for the location. I would definitely be going again before returning back home. They don't drag you from the street and force you to buy something unlike many others on that road. If you're from the UK I would recommend the Adana and lamb şiş. The chicken was great however the lamb was better than back home. When it comes to the Adana, OMG. I have it in London quite often but the flavour was so much better. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a nice meal with their family

Very welcoming from a smart dressed waiter in trousers and shirt (not looking like he's going to be dancing on the tables within the hour , you know what I mean) excellent chicken fajitas with homemade cheesecake, if you want wall to wall football while eating this isn't for you, there was a TV with football highlights on but the music created the atmosphere not the sport .. nice decor would definitely visit again..

So friendly. We got to see photos of the daily catch and it was fabulous. Carafe of house wine very good. We had the octopus with salad, really struggled to eat it all but excellently cooked.

Friendly staff, good prices, excellent food highly recommend the sea bream, snack menu good also, guiness on draught, right on beach cannot go wrong, you will not be disappointed

can’t fault a single thing, beautiful food great large portions! Staff were absolutely lovely went above and beyond for us. Would definitely recommend!

Amazing restaurant - one of the best food we ate in Turkey! Big portions, the taste is great and the staff speaks English and is really nice.

My Husband and I ate here last night after being recommend by our holiday rep, absolutely amazing steak, the hospitality was 10/10. The deep fried ice cream is fantastic too!

Researched and was advised of this establishment and are visiting now (17.00 27.06.25) both had the steaks were 180g and Diane off the main menu when arrived both cooked to as order and equally delicious. Service on arrival to departure was excellent and more than happy to recommend Family Door as the place to eat and rest up in the area. Many thanks G&S 🩷🙏

Exceptional restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious, and beautifully prepared. The owner and family went over and above to please us and were so kind and helpful. This is a must visit restaurant when here. We wanted to go for breakfast the next morning, but had to leave before they opened.

Always a very warm welcome from the staff. They are attentive and look after you very well. Very clean and a wonderful view of the sea. A highly recommended place for families, couples and solo's like me! 👌☕🏖

Went to Turkey for a holiday my Daughter recommended Family Door as she had been before, we went there 5 times food is wonderful so tasteful, service was exceptional and the Staff were so nice and caring, Looked after my family and kept the Granchildren entertained, Food is just Amazing cant wait to go back. Thank you all at the Family Door

I only stayed here briefly for 1 night on my drive to Antalya. The room was beautiful, and the hotel had a nice pool. The on site restaurant was very good. The server, Doga (not sure how to spell his name) gave excellent food recommendations. Although I wasn't here very long, the service was very generous and welcoming, and I can see this would be a great family vacation spot.

We chose this to be close to the Temple of Apollo ruins, and it is 4 min away by car. Nice pool and adequate restaurant. The facilities and our room need help. No wheelchair ramp to the rooms and pool. Our toilet ran constantly (a cheap thing to fix) and weak AC - it took 3 hours for our room to cool down and there is no way to keep the AC on while you are out, so ANOTHER 3 hrs when you return. Not recommended.

Its a beautiful place to relax and unwind . Short drive to nicest beaches of didim. Love the staff , bedding can be improved. I had a great time! Thank you !

Very friendly and staff not insist for drinks Perfect meals 😋 lovely atmosphere specially Friday nights live music is amazing!!! 👏 only one thing needs improving drink menu too short and cocktails need more decorating 🍸

Great place and food and the service was great and we used the pool We had pick up service and dropped us home too Had an excellent day and loved coming here will recommend x

This place is highly recommended by myself and many others, since we return time and time again. The food, staff, service and actual place are super great. In the summer season it's a very popular place, even for locals, to spend the whole day around the pool and evening for dinner and live entertainment. The owners and some staff speak English very well so that helps many foreigners. Even locals enjoy staying in their rooms for a few days due to the service and value they receive. Although it's not so close to the beach there's a sea view from here and amazing sunsets!! 🥰👌

Lovely chilled atmosphere pool handy not too big

Delicious food and good service. Car service also.

Great place to eat reasonable prices

Simple tasty food.

Good food

Fad

Super super

(Translated by Google) We came across this place by chance. We didn't have a reservation so we sat in the corner first, but as soon as the window seat became available, they took us. The staff was very attentive. We thank them for their refreshments and I recommend it to anyone coming with their family.
