Sunflower Complete Guide – Turkish Coast: Antalya to Demre
This guide book – the only general guide in English to cover this part of the Turkish Coast in detail – is an ideal companion for motorists who want to tour Antalya by car, as well as those planning a holiday walking in Turkey.
The book combines the best features of Sunflower’s ‘Landscapes’ walking and car touring guides with all the detail you would expect in a hefty general guide. Coverage includes:
o getting there and getting about
o recommended accommodation, campsites and restaurants
o practicalities A-Z
o history
o 15 main walks with many variations, all with large-scale topo maps
o fold-out area map
o detailed town plans showing locations of all sights, recommended hotels and restaurants
o plans of historical sites
o many ‘feature’ panels
The main part of the book concentrates on the area west of Antalya, known both in antiquity and today as Lycia. The whole Lycian Peninsula takes in a very large area; this guide moves east as far as Alanya and west to Demre/Kekova, east of Kas; highlights include Termessos and Olympos. (The other two guides in this trilogy move west from Kas – first to Dalyan and then to Bodrum.)
All the authors have been visiting Turkey for many years, writing general and walking guides. Dean Livesley was one of the original developers of the famous Lycian Way, Turkey’s first long-distance footpath, and a key feature of this book is coverage of the Lycian Way as day walks, with full transport details.
Area map covering the entire south coast, from the Gulf of Antalya to the Bodrum Peninsula in the west; 15 main walks (each illustrated with 1:50,000 topo maps); plans of Antalya, Antalya Old Town, Kemer; site plans of Perge, Aspendos, Termessos, Phaselis, Olympos, Limrya, Arykanda. Free online update service with specific route change information on the publisher’s website, maintained daily.
