The Lower Düden Waterfall is one of the most photographed sights in Antalya — a 40-metre vertical drop where the Düden River pours straight off the cliff into the Mediterranean. Best viewed from the dedicated park promenade or, even better, from a boat trip from Antalya Marina. There's also an Upper Düden Waterfall 12 km inland — wider, more forested, less famous but still beautiful.
Opening hours
Park open 08:00 – 19:00. Free entry. Cafe and boat trips on site.
Entry fee
Free park entry. Boat trip from Marina €15. Upper Düden park: €2.
What to see / do
Highlights of Düden Waterfalls
💧
The 40 m drop
Walk to the cliff-edge viewing platform — the falls thunder straight off into the sea. Bring a windproof phone case.
🚤
Boat trip view
The €15 boat from Antalya Marina takes you to the bottom of the falls — you literally sail under the mist.
🌈
Sunset rainbow
At 17:00–18:00 in summer, the sun creates a perfect rainbow in the spray. Best photo of your Antalya trip.
🌳
Upper Düden cave
The Upper Düden Falls 12 km inland have a walk-behind cave — the water arches over your head.
☕
Cliff-edge cafe
The on-site cafe has tables literally on the cliff edge. Perfect for a Turkish tea overlooking the waterfall.

FAQ
Düden Waterfalls transfer · frequently asked
How much is a transfer from Antalya Airport to Düden Falls?
€40 one-way in a Eco Van. Most guests combine it with Kaleiçi + Antalya Aquarium on a half-day private tour for €70.
Is the entry to Düden Falls free?
Yes — the Lower Düden Falls park (the cliff-edge one) is free. The Upper Düden Falls inland costs €2 and is worth the small fee for the walk-behind cave.
Can I swim near Düden Falls?
Not at the cliff edge — it's a 40 m drop. The Upper Düden has shallow pools where it's safer but the water is cold year-round.
How long do I need at Düden Falls?
45 minutes is plenty for the cliff-edge viewing platform and a coffee. Add 2 hours if you do the boat trip from Marina.
Is it open all year?
Yes — and arguably more impressive after winter rain when the flow doubles. Cliff platform safety: same year-round.
