Alanya to Kaş Road Trip

Long scenic drive from Alanya to Kaş via the coastal highway: overnight tips, fuel budget and recommended cars.

• Distance ≈ 270–290 km one way
• Duration 4.5–6 hours (with photo stops)
• Fuel cost ≈ €30–45 one way
• Road condition Excellent scenery; slow trucks; cliffside bends west of Finike
• Parking Town edge paid lots in Kaş; avoid harbour peak hours
• Rest stops Antalya, Kemer, Finike, Kalkan
• Recommended car Kia Cerato or Dacia Duster

Is it worth one day?

A same-day return is exhausting (9–12 hours driving). Prefer one night in Kaş or Kalkan. The stretch past Olympos / Çıralı toward Kaş is the visual highlight.

Preparation

• Full tank in Alanya; top up in Antalya or Finike
• Download offline maps (mountain signal can drop)
• Sunglasses and water — glare on cliff roads is strong
• Check harbour hotel parking policies in Kaş
