因塞库姆海滩, 安塔利亚省, 土耳其

Incekum Beach is a popular and historic resort on Turkey’s southern Mediterranean coast, located 23 km from Alanya (about 30–35 minutes by minibus). Its name means “fine sand” in Turkish, which perfectly describes its main attraction. The beach is also conveniently located along the route from Antalya to Alanya, about 100 km from Antalya International Airport (2 hours by car).

Beach and Nature:

• Length: ~1.5 km, with yellow, clean sand and gentle water entry.
• Bordered by rocky capes with pine forests.
• Few nearby settlements: Okudzhalar to the northwest and Avsallar to the southeast; Avsallar is reachable on foot in 15–20 minutes.
• Very few stones on the main beach; water and sand are clean.
• Climate: warm, swimming season April to October, water up to 28°C in summer.

Infrastructure:

• Incekum is quiet and not heavily developed.
• Basic facilities: a few grocery stores, a small traditional bazaar near Okudzhalar.
• No promenade or public parks; for more entertainment, visitors can go to Alanya or Avsallar.

Hotels (4–5 star):

• Top Hotel
• Annabella Diamond Hotel
• Pegasos group (occupies much of the beachfront)
• Alara Hotel

Hotels on the first line from the sea provide private beach access. Others, located across the highway or at the beach edges, may require a short walk to reach the water.

Highlights:

• Pure sea air mixed with the scent of pine trees.
• Low crowding even in high season due to limited hotel capacity.
• The area is naturally scenic, with mountains starting on the other side of the highway.

Incekum is ideal for travelers seeking a quiet beach vacation with pristine sand and clean water, rather than nightlife or large-scale entertainment.
