3 Best Shopping in Antalya, The Turquoise Coast

Run by a helpful husband-and-wife team, this low-key little shop on the edge of Kaleiçi sells traditional, handmade Ottoman-style leather shoes and boots, as well as bags—all made here by the owner himself. In a city full of overpriced trinket shops, the items here are some of the most reasonably priced, beautiful, and unique souvenirs you could hope to find. Some shoes are made using only natural dyes, including pomegranate skins, which produce a deep crimson.

Up the road from Konyaaltı Beach and Hotel Su, Antalya's fanciest mall has a large supermarket, an eight-screen cinema, and a large food court, as well as more than 100 shops that represent both international brands (like Samsonite, Lacoste, and Tommy Hilfiger) and Turkey's big clothing chains (including Mavi Jeans, Derimod for upscale leather goods, and Boyner and LC Waikiki for general clothing).

Jewelry, mugs, Turkish bath towels, notebooks, handbags, and other products by Turkish designers are for sale at reasonable prices in this friendly Kaleiçi store. It's in a century-old stone building, and it doubles as a tiny café serving up coffee and pastries.
