Belek Things to Do Tips by adema29 Top 5 Page for this destination

Aspendos

If you are in Antalya region, take a trip to Aspendos and do... what the romans did :)
It is amazing how well preserved is the amphitheater.
We have enjoyed climbing the hill behind the amphitheater and, despite the bad maintained roads, and the presence of snakes, lizards and all the wild noises coming from the bushes, I don't regret it.
I would recommend you to wear real shoes and long trousers as the presence of those snakes was really scary!

About the city of Aspendos... together with all the other ruins in Antalya, it could make you feel the mumbling of the romans going to the agoras or the baths and enjoying the good weather in Antalya, same as two thousands yrs ago.

Playing with the good acoustic of the theater was one of the preferred activity for all the tourists in Aspendos so, the space inside was dominated by a kind of cacophony caused by the shouts in so different languages. Anyway, the amphitheater is still used today for Opera and ballet festivals .

Directions: 40 km east of Antalya

Aqua Park

If you like the world of water slides, then you should go to "Troy Aqua"! It is a water park built on a 12.000 m2 area, with wave pool, 13 m high slides, kamikaze slide , an adventure river and.... a restaurant:)
For the guests of Rixos Premium hotel, the entrance is free. If not, you have to pay a tax.

Very important!! For the God sake... if you are going to try the kamikaze slide (about 15 m)...keep you legs tight.-very tight. Otherwise... you will need a loooong time for recovery. Especially if you are a man... ouch!

Dolphinarium

In fact part of Troy Aqua Park, the Dolphinarium hosts 800 people twice a day.There are shows at 11a.m and 3 p.m., excepting Monday , when there is a single show at 3 p.m.
We payed 25 euros/adult. The entrance is free for children under 3 y.o.
The show lasts about one hour. After watching the wales, the dolphins and the walrus, you may swim with the dolphins , against an extra-fee, of course:)
During the show, they also take a break ( a too long break in my opinion) for photos with the wales and the walrus (photos taken by their photographer against a fee)...
