Our Little Piece of Paradise Suluada felt like our own private paradise. Crystal-clear turquoise water, little boats, seashells, warm breeze, and nothing but peace and beautiful blue skies. We even grilled fresh fish on a small barbecue by the sea. Just sitting there, listening to the waves, enjoying good food and the view, felt absolutely magical. No crowds, no noise, no rush--just nature, the sea, and a beautiful moment together. One of the most peaceful places I've experienced in Türkiye. read more

Suluada - Beaches Near Me - Antalya, 07

See all

This was a 100% TOURIST TRAP for me... I was really looking forward to visiting Suluada. Dubbed as the the Turkish Maldives; the Island looks amazing in the pictures and videos... definitely marketing hype! Suluada is NOT good for snorkeling, it's very crowded; nothing but tons of tourists, local and international. The wildlife here is almost non existent. There is hardly any fish out here, the reefs look dead, and... unfortunately I did see a lone destructive, invasive Lionfish as well. There are a ton of of boats docked at the island and the water is littered with trash. As far as I know there is no historical significance either. If this is what the Maldives is like, all of a sudden I have no desire to visit. Hopefully not the case. Getting to Suluada is also a bit of a journey as well; an hour plus ride down the coast from Antalya to a closer port or long boat ride from Antalya. You are not missing out on anything, if don't make it to Suluada. read more
