Setur Antalya Marina

Introduction

Setur Antalya Marina lies inside the ancient Roman harbour walls of Kaleiçi, the old town of Antalya — a horseshoe of stone quays beneath the minarets and timber houses of the historic centre.

What You'll Feel

You moor within the old town itself: cliffs and Ottoman houses rise straight from the water, and the bazaar, Hadrian's Gate and the fluted minaret are steps from the pontoons.

What Makes It Unique

International sailors stop here as much for the history as the berths — a 2,000-year-old harbour turned marina, ringed by a living old town rather than a modern complex.

The Story Behind

The harbour dates to around 150 BC, when King Attalus II of Pergamon founded Antalya as a naval base; it flourished as a major Roman trading port and has anchored the city's life ever since.

Local Life

Kaleiçi wraps the marina in restaurants, boutique hotels and cafés; the old harbour has become the social and cultural heart of Antalya.

Best Time to Visit

The Gulf of Antalya is warm and settled through a long season; high summer is busy and hot, spring and autumn gentler for both sailing and sightseeing.
