- last modified on August 1, 2025
Antalya airport (AYT/LTAI) is operated in Turkey’s primary holiday destination located on the country’s Mediterranean coast. The airport was built to accommodate the millions of passengers who come to Turkey’s Mediterranean beaches in summer. It handled almost 38 million passengers in 2024! The airport has two international terminals and one domestic terminal.
Antalya Airport is a hub for the Turkish carriers Turkish Airlines, Corendon Airlines, Freebird Airlines, Pegasus, Tailwind and SunExpress. Other than that, the traffic consists of a lot of different airlines which are hard to see anywhere else in Europe besides Moscow. Antalya attracts a lot of airlines from Russia (Southwind, Azur, Aeroflot, Rossiya, Ural, etc.) and CIS-states.
Furthermore you will also see plenty of airlines from Poland (EnterAir), Czech Republic (Travel Service, Smartwings), Germany (Condor, Eurowings) and the UK (Jet2, Thomson). Other European (charter) airlines also operate less frequent services to the airport.
The official Antalya Airport app for your mobile device is very helpful! You find a detailed schedule including the airline, aircraft type and even the registration!

| Spotting Information | |
| Ladder | Not required and not recommend to use! |
| Car/Public Transport | A car is required. It’s not easy to find the spotting location so it’s necessary to rent a car. It costs around 30 Euro per day. You can park your car easily at every location we provide! Spot 14 is reachable from the Metro Station. |
| Restrooms | At the hotels and gas stations around the airport. |
| Drinks/Food | Gas stations and small stores are near to some locations. Several restaurants can be found in the village north of the airport and near the sea, south of the airport in Lara city. There is also a huge shopping mall, great to make a break, just next to the northern spots 9 and 10. |
| Hotels | There is just one real airport hotel It ist called IC Hotels Airport (see spot #12). Rooms are not the cheapest and you can find many good alternatives within Lara, south of the airport at the sea. A very good option is the C Suites Hotel, north of the airport, next to the Mall of Antalya. It is very close to the most important spots 9 and 10 (even in walking distance). Furthermore prices are just 50 €/night and supermarkets, restaurants are all in this area. |
| Season | The best season is summer, from June to end of September, as the most charter carriers operate only during this time. |
| Security | We have no serious report within the last years. Just keep a low profile, stay next to your car and don’t linger around the fence or on busy roads. Police may approach because local farmers called them. Usually the officers just check your ID and tell you to leave the place. In the worst case you have to follow them to the station but they will let you go! Be aware of this situation. |
| Runway Usage | |
| General Info | The wind at AYT changes several times during the day and usually landings are from the south in the morning, then changing sometime during late morning (around 11:00) and changing again in the evening (after sunset) at around 19:00. But it can also happen that they switch back earlier before sunset. |
| 18L/36R | In use for all departures from both directions in 2025 |
| 18C/36C | In use for all arrivials from both directions in 2025 |
| 18R/36L | Rarely in use and just for military movements. |
Parking - 18L Arrivals Morning
| WHERE | The spot is at a parking place of a bus company. There are some other places in the area as well to park the car. To reach this from the entry road of the airport: Take a left turn at the traffic light, heading East and take a left after around 400 meters. |
| WHAT | This spot is good in the morning for arrivals on 18L. Compared to spot #2 the angle for arrivals is not so great here, but you will encounter less heat haze. |
| TIME | In summer the light is good from sunrise until 11:00. |
| MISC. | There is a restaurant and a small market next to the bus company. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | 155mm B744, 240mm A320, 270mm A319 |
Small Field - 18L Arrivals Morning
| WHERE | Getting here is a bit tricky, as there is no official turning point from the main road into this road if you are coming from the north. So either drive past and make a u-turn later or turn into the 1508 Sk and approach this locations through the side roads from the south. |
| WHAT | This spot is good in the morning for arrivals on 18L. Sadly you will most likely face slight heat hace from around 10:00 for smaller aircraft. |
| TIME | In summer the light is good from sunrise until 11:00. |
| MISC. | There is a restaurant and a small market next to the bus company. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | 210mm for a B738 and 150mm for a B753. |
Abandoned Building - 18L/36R Morning
| WHERE | Not so easy to find and the situation can change as there are many constructions going on around the empty building. To reach it get onto the Kardeş Kentler Cd, which is the main road running on the east side of the airport. The entrance to the spot is next to a Shell station. From there turn onto the sandy and very bumpy road and drive to the abandoned building as marked on the map. DO NOT park your car next to the derelict building. That is a dead giveaway to your presence and could help you if the police turn up and see no vehicle. To get inside you have to climb some rocks (see photo below). Once inside, use the stairwell to reach the upper floors. When shooting from the 6th or 7th floor, keep a low profile and stand well back from the edge and against a wall. Just pick up your camera when needed. Any groups will attract more attention. To avoid the lampposts in your photos use the higher floors, but be very careful as it is without any walls. THE COMPLETE SITE IS VERY VERY UNSAFE!!!
In 2024, a new house is up in front of this location which interfere the sight a bit but overall its still okay to take photos. |
| WHAT | You can take very nice pictures of arrivals, departures and aircraft taxiing to and from 18L/36R. Later during the morning you might experience strong heat haze in your shots. |
| TIME | In summer from May until the end of September, photos can be taken from sunrise until 9:30. It is possible to continue until the sun turns other way, however even the photos taken at 9.00 are badly affected by the heat haze. |
| MISC. | There is nothing nearby, so take what you need with you. Keep in mind this is private property. Locals or construction workers are calling the police more often as there are many works going on in this area. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | 155mm for a B744 and 260mm for a B738. |
Greenhouse Hill - 36R Arrivals Morning
| WHERE | If you are coming from the north, pass the petrol station which is marked and turn right into the Yörükoglu Cd. Follow this street along the airport fence and turn into the small housing area at the southern airport perimeter. The location is found in a small side street, where you can park you car on a gravel street, which is pretty much never used. For the photos you have to get out of the car and climb onto the small hill behind you, where you can easily shoot over the greenhouses. |
| WHAT | This spot is good in the morning for arrivals on 36R. You would probably have to deal with heat haze at this locations from 10:00 onwards, but as the RWY direction is usually switched before that, this will rarely be an issue. Otherwise (or if this spot is too far for you, use #5). |
| TIME | In summer the light is good from sunrise until 11:00. |
| MISC. | There is nothing nearby, so take what you need with you. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | An A320 is about 250mm and a B747 is 150mm. |
Former Supermarket - 36R Arrivals Morning
| WHERE | Follow the road along the airport fence a bit further until you reach the Asmali Sk, turn into this road. The spot is located right alongside the street, so try to find a suitable parking space without blocking the street. There was a local mini market which is now closed from where you can spotting from. |
| WHAT | This spot is good in the morning for arrivals on 36R. The angle at this spot is a worse compared to #4, but you are closer to the action. |
| TIME | In summer the light is good from sunrise until 11:00. |
| MISC. | The neighbours of this market are informed about our hobby and you should have no problem with them. Sometimes the police can pass in front of you, but it was okay, there is no problem. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | 789 = 120mm; A320 = 200mm |
Cemetery - 36C Arrivals Morning
| WHERE | At the south side of the airport drive into the Zeybek Sk which leads you directly to this spot. Drive the Zeybek Sk carefully, as there are several blind corners. After the tennis academy location (next spot) turn left into the Yonka Sk |
| WHAT | This spot is good in the morning for arrivals on 36C. The view is completely unobstructed. |
| TIME | In summer the light is good from sunrise until 11:00. |
| MISC. | There is nothing nearby, so take what you need with you. No problem with the locals which pass by frequently. Try to avoid to stay on the nearby cemetery. The owner of the house in front of the spot tends to call the police. So stay at the Tennis Academy if you feel unsafe. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | 150mm for an A330 and 210mm for an A321. |
Tennis Academy - 36C Morning
| WHERE | Instead of going right to location #6 continue on the street until you reach the tennis academy. It`s a well known position for local plane spotters and its on an grassy area behind the tennis courts. There is a gate at the entrance however it is open for anyone and they are very friendly even they ask you to drink or eat anything. From the gate just drive behind the courts to park your car. The big advantage of this location is that you won´t get bothered by locals who tend to call the police! |
| WHAT | Arrivals on runway 36C only. |
| TIME | In summer the light is good from sunrise until 11:00. |
| MISC. | Absolutely safe place for plane spotters and the owners are aware of our website and that spotters are going to this place. There is no shade anymore! Food and drinks are available (please by something!). Be respectful and polite to the tennis players so that everyone can use this position in the future! The academy opens around 0700/0800 in the morning. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | 744 = 130mm; 752 = 180mm; 738 = 230mm |
Sandy Area - 36C Arrivals Afternoon
| WHERE | In the afternoon (around 17:00 or 18:00) the landing runway may change and when they take their landings to the center runway, it is a little difficult to find a safe area. When you drive back down use the same direction for the morning locations (4-7) and get on the main road Havaalani Cd. At the northern end you will see the newly built basketball academy field. You can easily park your car in the parking lot. |
| WHAT | 36C arrivals only. You will not have any problems as the approaching planes will stay above the greenhouses sufficiently. Wide body aircrafts will be a little lower. |
| TIME | In summer the light is good from 14:00 until sunset. |
| MISC. | You can meet your needs for a small cafeteria and WC inside. As a recommendation; It would be nice to buy at least drinks or food to use WC. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | 190mm for an B737 and 120mm for a B777. |
Recycling Area/Hill - 18C Arrivals Afternoon
| WHERE | There are two possibilities where you can go for 18C arrivals. So coming from your hotel or any other place, use the D400 highway. Turn off into the Serik C. Yanyolu (running parallel to the D400) and go straight on Anso Sk. Then again left and the second right. For Spot 9A, continue north until a junction and some kind of recycling area to your left. Park by the roadside and start spotting from there anywhere along this area on of the sand/chalk hills (be aware of dust!). We do not recommend this area anymore and the following spot is a much better alternative!
For the now better option Spot 9B continue north and take the next right. Follow it for approximate 1-2 minutes until you see a small road going up a hill to your left. Drive to the top until the road turns hard left. |
| WHAT | This spot is good in the evening for arrivals on 18C. |
| TIME | In summer the light is good from 14:00 until sunset. |
| MISC. | Some shade is given. There is nothing nearby, so take what you need with you. Do not block the road as locals pass by. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | 145mm for a B763 and 200mm for a B738. |
Spot 9A “Recycling Area”
Spot 9B “Hill”
Mosque/Gravel Lot - 18C Arrivals Morning
| WHERE | Similar to the previous loation, this spot is next to the D400 side road and easy to find as is it at the entrance to a mosque (10A). You can park there directly in the shade in front of it and spot from there. If you want a slightly better angle and more distance just continue eastwards on the bumpy road for 30 seconds until a gravel area (10B) next to a white warehouse at the Serik C. Yanyolu. It can be used to park and spot from. As it’s next to a busy road try to spot from inside the car and keep a low profile. |
| WHAT | This spot is good in the morning for 18C arrivals. The aircraft are very far away at this location, but this is necessary as they are still very high. |
| TIME | In summer the light is good from sunrise until 11:00. At the mosque you are much closer to the plane and you have almost 100% chance of avoiding heat haze which might pop up at the gravel area spot. |
| MISC. | At the Mosque is shade and you can sit on a chair or a bench, as well as a mosque WC that you can use for free. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | Mosque: 150mm for an A321, 140mm for a B763 and 100mm for a B777 Gravel Area: 250mm for an A321 and 200mm for a B763. |

Boat Repair - Arrivals 18L Evening
| WHERE | As the two previous locations this spot is located on the known side road Serik C. Yanyolu of the D400 but pretty useless now. The reason is that you are no longer able to make a quick switch between Spots 9 and 11 as there is a new highway cutting the connection road into two parts and its impossible to cross the highway. But #13 is a great alternative and can be easily reached from #9. You can park your car on the right side of the street opposite the Boat Repair. |
| WHAT | This location is good for arrivals on 18L in the evening. Sadly the angle is rather bad, so you might consider the alternative Spot #13 if this bothers you too much. |
| TIME | In summer the light is good from 14:00 until sunset. |
| MISC. | There is nothing nearby, so take what you need with you. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | 135mm for a B747 and 240mm for a B738. |
IC Airport Hotel - Arrivals 18L Evening
| WHERE | Spotting can also be done from the IC Airport Hotel balcony, making it a relaxing place to stay, spot and enjoy the sun. The balcony can only be accessed via key card now so if you are not a guest, you may have issues accessing. Staying at this Hotel is rather costly compared to alternatives in the area. |
| WHAT | This location is good for arrivals on 18L in the evening. The angle is pretty good, however there are a few disadvantages: First of all, you are committed to one runway, meaning that a quick switch is not as easily possible as with the other locations.
UPDATE March 2025: there are trees in the hotel garden which are grown pretty high. From the southern balcony is a slot between the trees for 2-3 pictures for a 737. In future, this spot might be unable to use due to the trees. |
| TIME | In summer the light is good from 14:00 until sunset. |
| MISC. | There is everything nearby! You have your room, toilets and even Wifi right with you and the hotel tolerates spotting from the roof.
|
| FOCAL LENGTH | 100-300mm lens will be fine for most things. |
Airport Road - 18L Arrivals Afternoon
| WHERE | On the road leading to the airport terminals there is an unofficial parking area right next to the road which is often used by cab drivers. You can also pull off here with your car and shoot arriving aircraft over the trees. Make sure to get a location where the trees aren’t that high, otherwise they will disturb your shots. Also take care to avoid the lamp posts and signs placed in the middle of the road. We don’t recommend to walk to this position as its not safe due to very fast cars. Taxis are available and newly build railway is possible too. |
| WHAT | This spot is a good choice for 18L arrivals in the evening. It can be reached from Spot #9 in just a few minutes, making it ideal for a quick switch if you heard a highlight on the radio for this RWY. |
| TIME | In summer the light is good from 14:00 until sunset. |
| MISC. | As can be seen in the video, this point is used by locals who do not want to pay for the parking fee at the airport. They are waiting there for the passengers and they will be picking up from the arrival part and then they take them back from the airport immediately. Naturally, this area can be monitored by traffic polices. Since it is a very busy point, it is recommended that you never, ever show your camera for a long period. Take the plane and put your camera away. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | 180mm for a B738 and 110mm for a B747. |
Pedestrian Bridge - 18C arrivals
| WHERE | There are two pedestrian bridge that overlooks the tram tracks and the main road where you can stay. You can park at the bottom of the bridge; there is a car dealership that is closed, and there are parking spaces available on the perpendicular street where BTB Tours Antalya is located or next to the Mazda dealership. The store is closed, and the parking is open without barriers. Great spot if you don`t have a car. Closest tram stop is YONCA and from there it is just a short walk. |
| WHAT | This spot is good for 18C arrivals. Less heat from this spot as you are much closer. |
| TIME | In summer the light is good from sunrise until 11:00 and from afternoon till sunset. Just switch from one pedestrian bridge to the other. |
| MISC. | There is nothing nearby to drink or eat. At the Mall of Antalya where you can find food, drinks, restrooms, and cool air, etc., and it’s a 2-minute drive away. We encountered a lot of people, and it didn’t cause any problems at all. Nevertheless, put away camera after each plane. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | Morning: 762=80mm; 738=180mm Afternoon: 250-400mm |
Petrol Station/31003 St - 36R departures
| WHERE | This is a good option to catch the departures without climbing on an abandoned house. There is a petrol station on Kardeş Kentler Cd., the major road that runs along the east side of the airport. Access to the station is only from the south. You can either stay at the gas station, which is very busy! So if you feel uncomfortable continue on the 31003 St, which is directly after the gas station, for 200-300 meters and just stay by the roadside. This place is much safer as there is almost zero traffic. |
| WHAT | This spot is good in the morning for 36R take-offs. The plane in the take-off state is noticed a little late, but its sound comes long beforehand. In this case, the only thing to do is to wait in the ready state and you have many alternatives to take the photo as soon as it is on the wires. The view from the road is completely unobstructed. |
| TIME | In summer the light is good from sunrise until 10:00. Then heat haze might effect your shots badly. |
| MISC. | Its a huge station. There is everything available in there. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | 150mm for an A321 and 110mm for a B777 from the gas station. 350mm for 737/A320 from the road (see last three sample photos) |
Park - 36R arrivals
| WHERE | Sometimes the wind blows from the north all day long. In this case this is the perfect location. Transportation is a bit complicated, but it is best to reach from location 5. This is a green area in the neighborhood where people spend time. You can park directly park at this location and you can stay next to your car. |
| WHAT | This location is perfect in the afternoon for 36R arrivals. |
| TIME | In summer the light is good from 14:00 until sunset. On hot days heat distortion might be a problem till late afternoon. |
| MISC. | There is also a tree shade where you can park your car and a small market very close by. And, of course, it is important not to disturb the residents. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | 763 = 100mm; B738 = 160mm |
Terminal 1 - Ramp, Taxiway
| WHERE | In the case you are flying out of the intl. Terminal 1 you can spot from the departure area, next to gates 11-13. Of course you need a valid boarding card to access this place. The glass is single, a bit dirty but its ok. |
| WHAT | Its good middle of day when the plane taxies past at right angles to the runways past the spot. |
| TIME | Depends on the angle of the planes but avoid the afternoon hours as you will face the sun. |
| MISC. | Everything you need is offered in the departure area. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | 40-100mm A321=50mm |
Terminal 2 - 18L/36R and taxiway
| WHERE | In the case you are flying out of the intl. Terminal 2 you can spot from the departure area in the newly constructed East Wing (Spot 18A). Of course you need a valid boarding card to access this place. Unfortunately you can’t stay directly at the glass front as there is a barrier all along the frontline and you are 10 meters away. But even from the distance it is possible to gain some descent shoots. Another option is to spot from the connecting corridor between the new and old terminal (Spot 18B). Here it is possible to stand directly at the window front. |
| WHAT | 18A: Best for all runway 18L/36R movements as well as movements on the outer taxiway up to A320/737. Bigger aircraft are hard to handle due to the window frame. 18B: Partially view of the old terminal apron. Gate 227, 228, 229, 230 pushbacks, taxiing, Mike taxiway. |
| TIME | 18A: from afternoon until sunset. 18B. best in the summer morning hours for the taxiway and pushbacks till late noon. |
| MISC. | Everything you need is offered in the departure area. Keep a low profile of course but no problems with security. |
| FOCAL LENGTH | Runway A320 = 220 mm; A332 = 170mm Taxiway 738 = 130 mm |

Dear Spottercommunity,
I visited Spot 9b and had absolutely no issues. The benefit of this location is, you can remain sitting in the car and keep low profil.
Take care and enjoy our hobby.
I was at spot 6 this week, unfortunately a pile of dirt has been left at the entrance to the spot preventing you from parking there. Whether temporary or not I don’t know. In theory it’s still accessible on foot if you can park nearby. The tennis academy also seemed to be open earlier than 0800
Mark, were the other locations fine? Any hassle from the locals or the police?
Hi Tim, I used spots 7,8 and 14 with no problems. I also used spot 6 before the dirt was put there (but only in the early morning up to about 8am, and then moved to the tennis club). A Dutch spotter I met told me the locals had called the police on him there and they asked him to leave after carrying out some checks etc.
I was told its the owner of the house who is not a fan of plane spotters and tends to call the cops. But Academy is the better option of course.
-Julian
All right I left a note. You can park at the cemetery as well.
Thanks, Julian
Tennis Academy is currently building two additional tennis courts. Still there is enough place to park and stand and this is not an issue to photograph landing airplanes
Hi, I just was in AYT spotting for three times last week and it’s easier than I thought.
I’m still 17, so I made everything just with public transport!!! Yes, it’s possible to do it without car, as they used the one RWY for landings and the other RWY for Take-offs. It just needs a bit more time to get to the spots. I first was at spot 14 on the afternoon side. It’s great, but the aircrafts are far away(without crop around 350-600mm). Spot 3 is also great. It’s in fact a bit risky, but the houses to the front are finished. So there are just construction workers behind you.
Spot 9 is also available. I went to Ülker Sk., but went left between construction sides. It looks like a recycling area and I stood on a hill of sand. It’s very very dusty there.
I hope I just gave a good update. Feel free to ask any questions here or on instagram at plane.spotting_ham
Hi Jakob, your updated are noted. Thanks! How do you get to the southern points with public transport?
-Julian
It’s quite okay. I just used the Google Maps navigation with public transport. Of course you need to walk a bit. But I take it
All,
I’ve just spent a few days on & off in Antalya. The latest news. Maybe it’s because of the construction project going on behind Spot #3 (derelict building) or the residents of the house front and left when looking at the runway, but the locals or construction workers are calling the police more often. A recent incident involved both the police and plain clothes detectives, not a pleasant experience! I’ve heard of others encountering issues too. Two recommendations to help you. DO NOT park your car next to the derelict building. That is a dead giveaway to your presence and could help you if the police turn up and see no vehicle. When shooting from the 6th or 7th floor, keep a low profile and stand well back from the edge and against a wall. Just pick up your camera when needed. Any groups will attract more attention.
For afternoon landing shots on 18C (now sole landing runway), back near the disused cement works on Ulker Sk. seems to work nicely. The only real traffic is cement trucks….lots of them! There’s new construction to the south of you but they’re still digging deep foundations. You can see the approach so just hop out of your car as needed.
I hope this helps.
Hello all, I am staying in AYT next week and we stay at the IC hotel. We are fairly familiar with the main go-to places during the day, but would like to understand whether the IC hotel will offer view of RWY18C landings or are the trees an issue. I ask this due to all arrivals being on the Centre runway this summer. Last question if I may, for RWY18C arrivals in the afternoon, are there any safer locations close to the old position 9 (now not possible) which can be accessed? thanks a lot
Hi Dave, you can`t see 18C from the IC hotel. It is just too far and yes there are trees blocking the view. Spot 9 and 14 are usually safe. Lot os spotters went there the last weeks without problems.
-Julian
Current information about Antalya: Unlike previous years, this year all landings are made from the central runway and all takeoffs are made from the eastern runway. So you don’t have a chance to miss traffic. Air traffic workers in Turkey have been slowing things down for months. That’s why traffic can get a little messy. Especially in the morning. Many planes can be delayed. You may find the tennis school closed on Sundays. There is a cemetery behind it, but I don’t recommend taking photos there. The locals may cause problems. If the tennis school is closed, I take photos here: 36°52’25.02″N – 30°47’35.33″E. The unfinished construction in location 3 is still standing and you can still take photos from there. You may not be able to find it next year. Because there is a lot of construction around and next year they may build a building in front of this building. Or they may demolish the building. So I recommend you to take photos from there as soon as possible.Enjoy your shots everyone.
Hi, I’m coming to AYT in 4 weeks. Thanks for the updates on spot 9. I will try and find the nearby spot you describe. Is it still ok to photograph from the bridges over the tram track when 18Cis in use?
Hi, I was at spot 9 and on the bridges yesterday in the afternoon, lots of people around but no issues at all, I just put my camera in the bag when not needed.
So is spot 9 completely off limits?
The old location number 9 no longer exists. There is construction at the location. So it is no longer possible to take photos there. You can stop nearby and take photos and you won’t have any problems. I am shooting from the point in the video. It is very easy to find. Coordinates: 36°55’39.24″N – 30°47’34.38″E. There is nothing around. Also, you are standing on a dirt road. Not many cars pass by but when they do, there is dust. One more thing everyone should know about Antalya: Antalya weather is very hot in July and August. The sky can suddenly close up because of the humidity caused by that heat. What I mean is that Antalya weather is unreliable in these months. The best times for Antalya are May-June and September-October.
Mehmet, thank you for the replies. Appreciated.
Do you know the email address or telephone of the tennis club please

I spotted at AYT on 18/09/23 and I mostly used the tennis club. When I walked in, someone asked me what I was doing (I guess as I don’t speak Turkish) but with the help of Google translate I said I’m here to watch the planes and he was very friendly and walked me over to the best spot. The general pattern seems to be when landing from the south, they land on 36C and take off on 36R. When landing from the North it seemed T1 and domestic landed and took off on 18C and those using T2 landed and took off on 18L but it didn’t always go like that and the odd few seemed to deviate from that.
WHAT IS THE ADDRESS OR E MAIL PLEASE . IS THIS THE BEST PLACE FOR AIRCRAFTPHOTOS MANY THANKS
