Is there a word to describe the peace we experience when the waves of the deep blue sea hit the enchanting shores of the Mediterranean? In our opinion, the sentence that best describes this feeling integrates with the words Mediterranean and camp. While on a camping holiday by the fascinating seaside of the Mediterranean, you can get rid of the stress and troubles you have been exposed to throughout the year in a very short time. When the Mediterranean is mentioned, Antalya's Adrasan district is one of the indispensable routes of campers. Adrasan manages to fascinate everyone who sees it with its majestic mountains reaching up to the sky and its fascinating nature. Therefore, it is possible to encounter a density that starts from the coastline and extends to the camping areas, especially during the summer season, and comes to life in the central region. As Campalow, our travel guides stop in Adrasan today and share our experiences with you about the meals you can eat while camping in the region, transportation route, accommodation opportunities and activities. If you're ready, let's start.

The fascinating Adrasan region is located on the west side of Antalya. Surrounded by popular towns such as Finike, Demre, Tekirova, Camyuva and Kemer, Adrasan has a distance of 87.5 km, ie 1 hour and 18 minutes, to the city center of Antalya. When you set off with a private car from Antalya city center, you can continue on the D400. Even if your preference will be for public transportation instead of private vehicles, you can use the vehicles that go to Adrasan from Antalya Intercity Bus Terminal. When you set off from Istanbul to come to Adrasan, you can come via the D650 road. In this case, you need to travel approximately 773 km, ie 9 hours. After arriving in Antalya, you can continue the rest of the way by following the maps. It takes 10 hours and 45 minutes to get to Antalya by public transport from Istanbul. Therefore, you can first go to Antalya and continue the rest of the way in approximately 1 hour by bus or taxi.

Of course, it is impossible not to come to Adrasan and experience the local delicacies.

If you are looking for an activity that you can do for yourself in Adrasan, our first suggestion would be trekking.

What to Buy from Adrasan?
Even if it is a small trip, we want to save a few moments that will make our loved ones happy when we change cities. When you go to Adrasan, if you want to buy a popular souvenir of the city and present it to your loved ones, we definitely recommend you to take a look at the center. In the center of Adrasan, you can find clothes made by hand or appealing to a certain style in authentic shops and hammers. Although the things you will buy from the city are mostly about food, you should visit Kumluca or Kemer Market. In these regions, you can buy medicinal plants or herbs grown by the local people in wet and dry form.
Editor Suggestion
As someone who has seen Adrasan and had the opportunity to camp a short time ago, I can say that this region is the right route for summer vacation. I can say that no matter where you camp in Adrasan, you can witness fun streets, a deep-rooted history, a fascinating nature and the unique peace of the Mediterranean. When we went to Adrasan, we set up our own tents in a paid facility. When it was time to eat, we sometimes prepared it ourselves in the common kitchen, and sometimes we preferred restaurants or buffets in the center. The most enjoyable time of the day for me was at night. In the Adrasan region, the stars appear very close and brightly. When night falls, we can say that many things will not give you the pleasure of going to the beach with your friends and turning on your soft music and chatting under the stars. In our Adrasan camping tour, the most disturbing thing for me was the direct sunlight on the tent. For this reason, I recommend that you set up your tent in a shaded area to avoid the same problem. Have a nice trip ahead!
