Incekum Transfer Guide: A Beach Holiday in Nature's Embrace
Where pine forests tumble down to meet crystal-clear Mediterranean waters, Incekum offers something genuinely different from the typical Turkish resort experience. Named for its remarkably fine golden sand, this sheltered bay is one of the most naturally beautiful spots on the entire coast. Sitting approximately 105 km from Antalya Airport, Transferva provides comfortable, fixed-price private transfers that deliver you straight to this little paradise.
Where to Go and How to Get About
The real draw of Incekum is its natural beach setting. The water is shallow and calm, making it outstandingly safe for young children -- you can let the little ones paddle whilst actually relaxing, which is not something you can say about every beach. Behind the beach, the pine forests offer shaded walking paths that are perfect for a morning stroll before the heat builds. Neighbouring Avsallar is within walking distance or a very short transfer ride, providing local restaurants, shops, and a weekly market that complement the beach experience nicely. Alanya centre is roughly 25-30 minutes away by private transfer for a day of sightseeing.
The Incekum Holiday Experience
Incekum stands out for child-friendly water safety. The gentle slope of fine sand extends well into the sea, creating a broad shallow area where waves rarely build to any height. This makes it one of the safest swimming spots on the Mediterranean coast for young families. The rocky areas at either end of the bay provide decent snorkelling opportunities for older children and adults. For photography enthusiasts, Incekum is a dream: the interplay of pine trees framing sea views, golden light on the sand at sunset, and the natural forest-meets-ocean compositions create genuinely memorable images. Combining your stay with nearby Avsallar gives you the best of both worlds -- natural beach beauty alongside small-town Turkish life.
Transfer Tips for Incekum
The drive from Antalya Airport takes 90 to 110 minutes along the D400. Since Incekum and Avsallar are essentially neighbours, moving between the two is straightforward. For activities beyond the beach and forest walks, arranging day-trip transfers to Alanya or Okurcalar adds variety to your itinerary. Child seats are provided free of charge for family transfers. Booking a return transfer is particularly practical for departure day, ensuring you reach the airport in good time without the stress of finding last-minute transport.
