Ah, Cleopatra Beach in Alanya, a spot so enchanting it captured the heart of the Egyptian Queen herself. Legend has it, Cleopatra was captivated by the beach's beauty, often pausing her Mediterranean voyages to take a dip in its sparkling waters.

Stretching roughly 2 kilometers, Cleopatra Beach boasts fine, golden sand both onshore and beneath the gentle waves. The water here is a mesmerizing shade of clear blue, and you'll find it deepens to about the height of an adult within just a few steps.

This beach isn't just about sunbathing, though it does offer plenty of sunbeds and umbrellas for rent. It's a hub of activity, featuring beach bars, water sports, and volleyball courts. There's even a lovely walkway for leisurely strolls. If you're a foodie or a music lover, the beach clubs serve up delicious meals and drinks, accompanied by great tunes. You might find yourself lounging in comfort under pergolas, soaking up the vibrant atmosphere all day long. Don't miss the breathtaking view of Alanya Castle from the beach. As the sun sets, the sky bursts into an unforgettable display of colors, making Cleopatra Beach a truly magical place to unwind. For history buffs, Cleopatra Beach isn't just about the present-day allure. It's steeped in history, with tales of ancient ships navigating its waters and the queen herself leaving her mark on this coastal gem.
