Antalya Marina sits at the base of Kaleiçi, in the old harbor where Roman walls meet the water. The marina has berths for about 100 yachts, and the water inside is 6 to 7 meters deep, enough for everything from small fishing boats to large cruise vessels. It is a working harbor as much as a tourist stop: boat tours along the cliffs depart from the quay, diving centers run trips to the Saint dei Die shipwreck, and waterfront cafes serve Turkish coffee within sight of the moorings. Restaurants around the quay specialize in seafood, and there are nautical shops and traditional boat-building workshops to browse. The harbor connects directly to Kaleiçi's streets, so you can walk from the boats to Roman-era lanes in a minute or two.

Boats and cable cars here reach coves and viewpoints that roads do not. Most trips run daily in season and take under half a day.

This suits sightseers who want to reach coastal viewpoints without renting a car.

First-time visitors and solo travelers both manage easily here. The area is walkable, and staff at most sites are used to tourists.

Kaleiçi's old streets start right behind the harbor. Boat tours leave from here to the Lower Düden waterfall, which drops off a cliff into the sea.

Nearby bazaars sell Turkish crafts and souvenirs. Tea houses in the side streets are a good place to rest between sights.
