Premium Private Transfer from Akra Kemer to Olimpos Plajı
Transitioning from the resort atmosphere of Kemer to the wild, protected coastline of Olimpos requires a dependable journey. A private transfer provides a direct and comfortable connection along the scenic coastal routes of the Antalya region, allowing you to travel without navigating local bus schedules or regional taxicabs.
Cealio connects guests with experienced local chauffeurs who understand the unique geography of the Lycian coast. Whether you are planning a day trip to explore coastal historical sites or moving south to stay near the valley, your ride is planned with precision and transparent fixed pricing.
Departing from Akra Kemer
Located on Atatürk Boulevard along Kemer's main beachfront, Akra Kemer is an upmarket resort known for its polished quarters and spa facilities. For your departure, your Cealio driver meets you directly in the resort's main entrance area or portico, assisting with any personal luggage.
Leaving the central resort district of Kemer, the route follows the coastal highway D400 south toward the district of Ulupınar. The drive offers sweeping views of the Mediterranean on one side and the pine-covered peaks of the Beydağları mountains on the other.
Arriving at Olimpos Plajı
Olimpos Plajı is a protected natural pebble-and-sand bay set deep within Beydağları Coastal National Park. Framed by steep forested valley walls and the overgrown ruins of ancient Olympos, the beach remains undisturbed by major resort infrastructure. It is also an important nesting site for Caretta Caretta (loggerhead) sea turtles.
Due to national park and cultural heritage preservation regulations, direct vehicular access onto the beach is strictly prohibited. Your driver will drop you at designated parking areas near the ancient city entrance gate or directly at your valley lodging. From the main gate, a short walk through the shaded archaeological path leads directly to the sea.

Practical Guest Tip: Because Olimpos Plajı sits within a protected national park and archaeological zone, vehicles cannot reach the tide line. Wear comfortable walking shoes for the 5- to 10-minute stroll from the drop-off point through the stone ruins to the water.
