Pine-shaded sand, calm Aegean, family calm.
Özdere is a relaxed, pine-backed Aegean beach strip south-west of İzmir, where a long sand-and-shingle shore meets all-inclusive resorts and the citrus groves of neighbouring Gümüldür. From İzmir Adnan Menderes Airport (ADB) it is roughly 55 km, an easy 55-minute drive along the coast, and our private transfer brings you door to door.
Relaxed, green and unhurried: a pine-shaded beach strip where the loudest sounds are cicadas, splashing children and the clink of tea glasses. Days drift between the resort pool, the shingle shore and a citrus-scented breeze off the groves; evenings mean grilled fish, a sea-facing sunset and an early, easy calm rather than late-night noise.
The standout features that set Özdere apart from every other Antalya region.

Very much so. Its pine-shaded, gently shelving beach, cluster of all-inclusive resorts and calm, low-key evenings make Özdere a favourite for families. It offers an Aegean beach holiday without the nightlife intensity of Kuşadası or the summer crowds of Çeşme.
Yes, Ephesus is an easy day trip inland from Özdere. You can explore the marble streets, the Library of Celsus and the great theatre, then be back on the coast for a sunset swim, all within a short drive of your hotel.
Özdere is a relaxed, family-friendly Aegean beach resort strip with a long pine-backed shoreline and all-inclusive hotels. It is known as a greener, calmer alternative to Kuşadası and Çeşme, with neighbouring Gümüldür's mandarins and the ancient oracle site of Claros nearby.
