10 Minutes from Gazipaşa Airport: Holiday and Sightseeing Guide

Grand Akca Hotel is on Selinus Beach in Antalya’s Gazipaşa district, approximately 10 minutes from Gazipaşa-Alanya Airport. This proximity makes it easier for families, especially those travelling by air, to reach the hotel quickly after their journey. The 10 minutes mentioned here is the approximate drive from Gazipaşa-Alanya Airport (GZP); it does not apply to Antalya Airport and may vary with traffic conditions. While staying at our alcohol-free, all-inclusive family hotel, enjoy our Blue Flag beach and add days exploring Gazipaşa’s historical sites and natural beauty to your holiday.

For guests wishing to learn about the region’s past, the ancient city of Selinus is one of Gazipaşa’s historical stops. Its coastal location makes it possible to combine a seaside holiday with a cultural visit. The ancient city of Antiochia ad Cragum near Güneyköy offers another discovery overlooking the Mediterranean. Suitable walking shoes and consideration of the hottest hours make visits to ancient sites easier. Families with children may find it more comfortable to focus on a single historical site rather than a long, busy route. We recommend checking opening times and access conditions before your visit.

Among Gazipaşa’s natural sights, Delik Deniz and King’s Bay stand out for their coastal rock formations. Guests who enjoy natural landscapes can add this area near Güneyköy to their excursion plans. The natural rock pools along the Koru coast are another option for seeing the region’s varied shoreline. Yalan Dünya Cave adds a different kind of discovery to a seaside holiday with its stalactites and stalagmites. Each of these places has different access and ground conditions from the hotel beach. Especially when travelling with children, consider walking distances, current weather and sea conditions along the coast when choosing your visits.

Places to discover during your Gazipaşa holiday

On rest days between excursions, enjoy the sea together at our family beach. Our Blue Flag beach is one of the highlights of a holiday with us in Gazipaşa. The beach is shared by families; the private women-only swimming area is the separate women’s pool at our hotel. Our men’s pool and family pool with three slides offer further choices. You can therefore spend one day on a cultural or nature excursion and the next at the pool and beach. As sea conditions can change, it is important to choose swimming times in line with the guidance on that day.

For a few days in Gazipaşa, set aside the first day for resting after your journey, then devote one later day to historical sights and another to your chosen natural attractions. Following your family’s interests and energy rather than squeezing every stop into the same day makes for a more comfortable schedule. After excursions, meet at our hotel for halal dishes from Turkish and international cuisine and share the day’s memories. Find directions through the location link on our contact page and ask our team any questions about your travel plans. At Grand Akca, we look forward to you enriching a holiday that begins with a short airport journey with the sea, history and nature.
