A very atmospheric place to visit. especially if you are vacationing in Kemer and the surrounding area. You can get from the city center by bus in about half an hour. 2-in-1 location: ruins of an ancient city and a beach. You can see how archaeologists work. The bay is shallow, sandy, with clear water; children feel especially good after a sharp sunset in Kemer. There are rocks, especially near the shore, so it's better to take shoes. There are also spoonfuls of tar. 1. The entrance ticket is quite expensive. If the family is large, then a visit can hit the budget. At the same time, it will take a couple of hours at most to explore the ruins, the theater and the old town. We met compatriots who quickly inspected everything in half an hour and were very unhappy with the cost. In my opinion, you need to take your time and enjoy what you see, but nevertheless, the cost/impression ratio clearly outweighs the cost. 2. Traffic jams from cars at the entrance and exit. Turks also really like to relax here (for them the cost is 5 times cheaper). Therefore, the beach will be crowded. 3. If you get there on your own by bus, then get ready to walk from the ticket office to the city along the side of the road and in the sun for about a kilometer. There and then back. If you go by car, it's better during business hours, there will be fewer people. 4. The entrance fee is in euros, but you have to pay in lira. Therefore, you need to find out the actual cost of entry in lira according to the exchange rate, and prepare this amount in advance. There is no way to change the currency on the spot, there is nowhere. 5. There are no toilets on the beach itself (maybe I'm wrong, but I didn't find it), no shops, and I can't even buy water. We need to take everything with us. I advise you to familiarize yourself with the history of the city a little before traveling, then it will be more interesting, because otherwise there will be almost no information on the spot.

A unique place. It is a fairly large ancient city, there is even a wide street with remnants of residential buildings, a well-preserved aqueduct, and a small amphitheater. The beautiful, picturesque bay adds to the experience. We took a regular bus from Kemer to get to the city. Admission is 10 euros per person, but it's worth it.
