Alanya's secluded picnic-park cove — clear water, pebbly seabed and panoramic Taurus views, far from the crowds.
Tucked into the Dinek hills just west of Alanya, Ulaş Beach (Ulaş Mesire ve Piknik Alanı) is the locals' antidote to the busy Cleopatra strip. A small, sheltered cove of fine pebbles mixed with sand drops into water so clear you can watch fish over the stony seabed — superb for swimming and snorkelling. Above the shore sits a leafy picnic park dotted with shaded tables, BBQ spots and walking paths that frame sweeping Mediterranean and mountain views, plus a small fish restaurant known for grilled seabream. It stays calm and uncrowded even in high summer, so it suits families, couples and anyone craving a quieter, more natural day by the sea. Facilities are simple, which is exactly its charm — come for the scenery, the swim and the peace.

It's roughly 133 km and about 2 hours by road. The easiest option is a SooTransfer private door-to-door transfer: a typical private round trip runs in the region of €130–170 for the car (not per person), and we can wait and return so you don't have to rebook a ride home. We track your flight and meet you in arrivals, so a long day with kids and luggage starts stress-free.
Yes — for Ulaş Beach and the wider Alanya area, Gazipaşa is much nearer at around 42 km and roughly 45–55 minutes. If your flight lands at GZP, choose it: a SooTransfer private transfer is shorter, cheaper and faster than coming from Antalya, typically a fraction of the AYT price for the same private, wait-and-return service.
Local buses reach the area but mean changes, walks and waiting in the heat with bags. Metered taxis from afar get expensive and you still have to find one for the return. A SooTransfer private transfer is the smoothest: fixed price, your own air-conditioned vehicle, child seats on request, and an optional wait-and-return so your driver is there when you're done swimming.
Sunbeds and umbrellas can usually be rented in season for about €8–15 a set, and there's a picnic park, parking and a fish restaurant. It's a quieter, more natural cove, so water-sports options are limited compared with central Alanya beaches — come for clear-water swimming and snorkelling rather than jet skis. We'd rather be honest than overpromise facilities.
Absolutely. The sheltered cove, clear calm water and shaded picnic park make it a relaxed family day away from the crowds, with grilled fish and panoramic mountain-and-sea views as a bonus. Bring water shoes and your own supplies. With a private transfer handling the long drive both ways, it's an easy, memorable outing rather than a logistical headache.
