If you’re looking for serene locale in Turkey for your holiday, Patara Beach may just be the right choice. More than 10 kms long, this is the country’s longest beach. This is one beach of the Mediterranean that has escaped random development – something that must be attributed to the majestic ruins of this primeval city from which the beach derives its name. Patara has been the habitat of the native Loggerhead turtles since millions of years. When nature’s flora and fauna isn’t tampered with and left to grow as it appeared on earth, Patara Beach is what it will be. From the beach’s south-eastern end enjoy the view of the limestone cliffs of Lycia below which the farmers grow fresh vegetables and fruits. Then there are the lagoons that make it an area for wildlife to sustain. This paradise of dunes has minimal man made things in its vicinity except for a small café for visitors. While walking along the beach you don’t just get mesmerized by its scenic beauty, but also sift through some really intriguing chapters of history.
