Although many people come to Antalya just for the beaches and the fun associated with them, the city has lots more to offer; scuba diving, sailing, paragliding, rafting, mountain climbing, tracking and much more, seeing is beliving.
In May you can swim in the morning and skining in the afternon at Saklikent (at Bakirtepe) in Antalya and at nigth at the location you can visit TUBITAK's observatory and enjoy the sky at top of 2500m Mt.
Like many other Turkish cities, the city of Antalya dates back to Greek and Roman times and there are many sites to prove it. The Kale, the Ottoman citadel, is the nicest part of town. Narrow alleys, old timbered houses, stone archways, and private gardens. The old harbour (Yat Limani) is now a marina with modern yachts and very nice to spend a evening outside, having a meal or a drink next to the sea.

Boat trip
Walk down to the old harbour and go on a 2 hour boat trip along the coast to see the waterfalls and have a swim off the boat.
