Antalya Airport → Konaklı Transfer

Konaklı sits a short way west of Alanya and works, in practice, as its seaside suburb. The skyline is hotel and apartment blocks rather than village houses; the beach in front of them is wide, shelves gently and is rarely rough; and the evenings stay low-key. Most visitors treat Alanya itself as the place to go out — the bazaar, the harbour, the castle on its headland — and ride the dolmuş back along the coast road afterwards. It suits people who want Alanya within easy reach but a quieter street to come home to.

Antalya Airport to Konaklı is about 115 kilometres and takes roughly 95 minutes on the D400. The long middle section past Manavgat and Avsallar is the same coastal highway throughout; what changes towards the end is the density — banana plantations and greenhouses terraced up the slopes, then an almost unbroken built-up ribbon as the Alanya conurbation begins. That final approach is where summer weekends slow down. At night the road is clear, and since there are no junctions to miss the running time stays fairly predictable.
