Visitors to Antalya take to the streets and hidden courtyards of Kaleiçi or along the Yacht Harbour, where an ice cream and a stroll down the jetty are accompanied by sea breezes and waterside cafes. The downside is that several slow seasons have resulted in increased hassling by those idling outside their shops. The yacht harbour and surrounds offer awe-inspiring views both day and night that have moved many a local and foreign painter, poet and writer to achieve great works. With the arrival of Konyaalti's Beach Park, Antalya can now assume its place as the pre-eminent seaside resort on the Turquoise Coast. Stylish and tasteful cafes line the seaside beach park promenade at Konyaalti, sharing the lawns with decadent arrays of cushions, and backed by a handful of characteristic meyhanes. Meanwhile, residents looking for a quiet evening out descend on Karaalioglu Park for a seat at one of the welcoming tea gardens dressed in bright red or for a go at a line-up of balloons with an old army rifle. When the heat and humidity become too much to bear, there's bound to be a Turkish Nights show at one of the hotels in town.
