Kaleiçi Old Town — A maze of restored Ottoman-era mansions, boutique hotels, cafés and craft shops inside the original city walls. Yivli Minaret — The fluted 13th-century Seljuk minaret that is the symbol of Antalya, beside a former mosque complex.

Local tips
• Kaleiçi is steep and cobbled — wear comfortable shoes and explore on foot. • Visit the Antalya Museum early; it pairs well with a morning before the midday heat. • Take a short harbour boat trip from Kaleiçi marina to see the cliffs and Lower Düden falls from the sea.

Traveller reviews
There was some waiting on the boat between dives, so bring patience and maybe a snack. The diving team themselves were professional and kind, especially with people who were nervous. Visibility was good enough to see fish and rock formations. I gave four stars because the lunch was simple, but the diving felt safe.
The first dive was mostly about getting comfortable. The second dive felt much more natural.
We saw small fish and rock formations, not a huge reef, but it was a great first dive.
Waiting on the boat between dives was a little long, but the crew were friendly.
I was surprised by how calm I felt once we were underwater... The briefing covered hand signals, breathing, and what to do if you felt uncomfortable, which helped a lot. My partner panicked slightly at the start and the instructor handled it gently. We bought the photos afterward because they were actually worth having.
I was surprised how calm I felt underwater. The instructor stayed right beside me.
