Zeybek 1 is only a two minute walk from the centre of Patara village - the beach is a twenty minute walk or a short bus ride away minibuses and taxis are cheap and very regular.

This is Patara beach. It is 18km long and is the longest unspoilt beach in Turkey. You can hire sunbeds and umbrellas, eat and drink at the café/bar or just walk a few hundred metres and you can be quiet and undisturbed all day. You may even see a turtle as the beach is one of their best nesting sites on the Mediterranean.

The village streets are not too busy and there is a post office, money exchange, two barbers, a few gift shops, and plenty of bars and restaurants with good Turkish food and drink at very reasonable prices. Patara has a couple of travel companies who organise interesting trips and activities.  Local buses, taxis, and car hire are also available if you want to ‘do-it-yourself’.
