Alanya's calm, family-friendly Blue Flag beach — 3 km of soft sand on the castle's quieter eastern side.
Stretching roughly three kilometres along the eastern, sheltered side of the Alanya peninsula, Keykubat Beach is the relaxed counterpoint to its famous neighbour, Cleopatra. It begins near the old harbour and runs toward Oba and Mahmutlar, backed by a long palm-lined promenade with walking paths, open-air fitness areas, children's playgrounds and a string of cafes and restaurants. The shore is mostly fine sand with some pebbly patches, and the water shelves gently and shallow — calmer than Cleopatra and ideal for families, young kids and nervous swimmers. It carries Blue Flag status for water quality and safety, with lifeguards on duty in season. It generally feels less crowded and more easygoing than central Alanya, which is exactly why so many return.

It is roughly 125 km from Antalya Airport (AYT), about 1 hour 35 minutes by road. A SooTransfer private door-to-door transfer is the easy option — a private round trip is typically around EUR 130-160 depending on vehicle and season, and our wait-and-return service lets us bring you back whenever you finish, even after sunset. If you fly into Gazipasa-Alanya (GZP) instead, it is only ~42 km (around 45 minutes), so the fare is considerably lower.
A scheduled bus is cheapest but means changes, fixed timetables and a walk with your luggage and beach gear. Metered taxis from the airport are pricey and unpredictable. A guided tour locks you into someone else's clock. A SooTransfer private transfer is the sweet spot: a fixed, agreed price, a named driver tracking your flight, child seats on request, and a direct ride straight to the beach or your hotel — no waiting, no surprises.
Yes — it is one of Alanya's most family-friendly beaches. The water shelves in gently and stays shallow and calm, lifeguards are on duty in season, and the promenade behind the sand has playgrounds, open-air fitness areas and plenty of cafes. It is also usually calmer and less crowded than Cleopatra Beach.
Yes. Sunbeds and umbrellas are available to rent (a set is roughly EUR 8-15 a day, often slightly cheaper than Cleopatra), and you will find showers, toilets, changing cabins, beach cafes and water-sports operators. Public access to the sand itself is free.
Keykubat holds Blue Flag status for water quality and safety, and lifeguards patrol in season. One honest caveat: streams flow into the sea along this coast, so after heavy rain the water can turn deep blue and lose some clarity for a day or two. On settled, sunny days it is clean and inviting.
