A truly paradise for tourists
on the shore of the Mediterranean in the midst of its own
pine forests. Belek's natural beauty was discovered in 1984
and the region was proclaimed the "Belek Tourism Center".
In later years, Belek became what it is today, a paradise
on earth, thanks to cooperation between the Belek Tourism
Investors Association and the Tourism Ministry.
The Belek region on the Mediterranean coast is located 30
kilometers on the east side of Antalya province. Recently
it was chosen by the Tourism Ministry to be a tourism model
not just for today's tourist, but also for the tourist of
the next thousand years. Belek!... What a tourism paradise!.
The region has 32 four or five-stars hotels and first-class
holiday villages and five golf courses. All of the facilities
that have been designated first-class provide an ideal atmosphere
for families and meticulously offer many opportunities and
services aimed at pleasing their guests. All the facilities
