Living In Antalya
How Easy is Living In Antalya Turkey?
The Turkish Riviera’s city of Antalya has established itself as one of Turkey’s primary tourist destinations, steeped in history and with clean sandy beaches along the glorious Mediterranean coastline the unique combination of sun, sea, history and culture make it a holiday destination that many people fall in love with and vow to return to, often for a little longer than just another fortnights vacation.
As a tourist destination Antalya scores full points, but what about the practicalities of living in Antalya? Can this ever more dynamic tourist destination offer the same degree of satisfaction to the long term visitor?
Let’s face it some of the best holiday destinations may not always be the best destination in which to start a new life. Holidays are different, in return for a unique experience we’re willing to sacrifice certain luxuries in order to enjoy that special experience of a lifetime, how many of us would love to go on an African safari now keep your hands up if you’d love to retire to the bush! A few hands may stay up but many of us put on our ‘let’s be practical hats’ and decided that we need a certain degree of familiarity and modern infrastructural comforts to best enjoy the practicalities of day to day living.
We take a look to see if Antalya lives up to the full time living in experience as well as it does the holiday experience.
