- Vacation in April? The warmest resorts in Turkey are waiting for you
If your vacation starts in the middle of spring and there is no way to shift the dates of your vacation to a later period, do not despair! In this case, it is not at all necessary to spend a lot of money and fly many hours to the Asian or Caribbean exotics. You can sunbathe on the beach and swim in the sea in the warmest resort in Turkey. In April, comfortable weather for a beach holiday is already coming in several regions on the Turkish Mediterranean coast.
In perfect pine privacy
Geographically, one of the southernmost places on the Turkish Mediterranean Riviera is the town of Kas. It is surrounded on all sides by mountains and is located on the shores of a cozy bay. The relief of the surroundings of the resort reliably protects it from cold northerly winds, and the not too deep sea near the coast warms up early enough.
You can relax on the beaches of Kas in mid-April. One of the warmest resorts in Turkey receives its first visitors long before the May holidays. At the end of April, the sea warms up to + 19 ° С, and during the day in the sun the air temperature reaches + 25 ° С and even higher.
Kas is not a very crowded resort. It is not so easy to get here, but if you can, the amazing beauty of the seascapes, framed by pine and olive groves, will be the reward.
Useful details:
- The airport closest to the warmest resort in Turkey is located in Dalaman. The second air gate nearby is Antalya International Airport. The distance to both is approximately the same and is about 190 km.
- You can get from Antalya or Dalaman to Kas by bus or minibus. The event will be long - about 5 hours on the way. The taxi will get you there faster, but it will also be quite expensive.
- When choosing a hotel in Kas, ask about the transfer. Perhaps the hotel has transport and provides the service of meeting its guests at the airport at least for money.

There are no large hotels in the resort, and the bulk of the hotel stock is represented by small "/>
The cost of staying in hotels of the warmest Turkish resort, even in April or in October, does not change too much. The price of a standard double room in 3 * is 30 $ -40 $, and in guest houses without stars - 25 $ -30 $.
Beaches and other entertainment
Image The best beaches of Kas are located at some distance from the village and often have the status of special protected areas. The most beautiful one you will find in Patara village, which is on the way from Dalaman airport. White sand and clear sea are not the only advantages of Patara beach. Rare species of sea turtles breed on its territory.
But even within the town, you can easily find a place for sunbathing and swimming. For example, Mermaid Beach, located in a cozy sandy bay on the southern outskirts of the resort, is ideal for a comfortable stay.
Lovers of antiquities will not be left out of the excursion opportunities of the town. In Kas, architectural ruins from the time of the Lycians have survived - tombs, a temple and an amphitheater, and in the same Patara, the ancient Roman triumphal arch still rises and the baths, a necropolis and a Corinthian temple have been preserved. In addition, in Patara in the 3rd century BC. Saint Nicholas was born, whom the whole modern world knows under the name of Santa Claus.
Vacation in April? The warmest resorts in Turkey are waiting for you
If solitude and long roads are not included in your plans for a long-awaited vacation, and a vacation in April is still the only option for spending it, try going to Alanya. The southernmost of the large resorts of the Mediterranean Turkish Riviera is quite suitable for a beach holiday already in the middle of spring:
- The air temperature during the day in April in Alanya reaches + 24 ° C, but you can comfortably sunbathe from 11 to 15. The rest of the day at the resort is still too cool for sunbathing.
- The water in the sea warms up to + 18 ° C by the end of April and it becomes quite possible to swim.
- The weather is mostly sunny, but for walks in the evenings and early morning, it is worth stocking up on windbreakers or sweaters.
- When choosing a hotel, ask about the schedule of its work. Most of the hotels in Alanya are closed for the winter, and the beginning of their working season falls on the very end of April.
Getting to Alanya is very easy: the nearest international airport to the resort is located in Alanya itself. But even more flights go to Antalya airport. Ticket prices in April are around $ 300 round trip. The flight takes approximately 3.5 hours.
Buses run from the airport to Alanya, by which the majority of hotels can be reached in 1-2 hours.
The beach strip of the resort is divided by rocky headlands into separate bays. Such a relief prevents the formation of strong waves, and the sea in the resort area always remains relatively calm. That is why a vacation in the warmest resort in Turkey, even in April, will please parents with children.
However, if it seems to you that the sea temperature is not very comfortable, Alanya hotels will gladly provide the opportunity to use the children's pools, equipped in full accordance with the requirements of young tourists.
Another opportunity to spend an exciting day in the water is a trip to the marine park "/>
Cognitive holidays in Alanya can also be organized. The main list of excursions to the sights of the resort is a walk to the walls of a Byzantine fortress and the ruins of a 13th century castle, a descent into caves that once served as shelters for sea robbers, and a trip to a caravanserai built in the 13th century during the existence of the Great Silk Road.
