Konyaalti Plaji (Konyaalti Beach), on the west side of Antalya, Turkey, is a long strand of pebbles and rough stand backed by park, some hotels, and residential areas. It's closer to the center of Antalya than is Lara Plaji on the eastern side of the city.

Take the tram westward from Kalekapisi at the center of Antalya to the end of the line near the Antalya Museum and the Hillside Su and Sheraton Voyager hotels, then walk downhill 10 minutes to reach Antalya Beach Park and the eastern end of Konyaalti Plaji.

Antalya Beach Park has shade trees, snack stands, restaurants, cafes and bars, showers and other services, as well as beach chairs and sun umbrellas for rent. Behind it is a large parking lot for visitors' cars.

Farther west, away from the city and toward the dramatic backdrop of the Beydaglari mountains, there are fewer services, but still sufficient ones in many places.

You'll usually see the blue flag flying along Konyaalti, signifying that the water is clean and safe for swimming.

The easiest way to reach Konyaalti from the center of Antalya at Kalekapisi is to step aboard the tram, pay the fare in cash, and get out at the last stop. Be sure you're boarding the westbound tram (toward the mountains).
