Direct Private Transfers from Antalya Airport to Finike
Finike sits on the south-western stretch of the Turkish Riviera, 130 km west of Antalya Airport (AYT). The drive typically takes around 120 minutes. Booking a private transfer means you step off your flight, meet your driver immediately in the arrivals hall, and travel straight to your accommodation without stopping for other passengers.
What the Drive is Like
The route heads west from the airport, passing around the northern edge of Antalya before joining the scenic D400 highway. The road leads through the coastal foothills past Kemer and Kumluca, cutting through tunnels in the Taurus Mountains before descending towards the coast. As you approach Finike, the landscape opens up into wide, green plains filled with citrus orchards.
Journey times remain consistent at around 120 minutes for most of the day. If your flight lands during peak afternoon traffic (between 15:00 and 19:00), clearing the Antalya city outskirts can add 15 to 20 minutes to the trip. Early morning and late evening transfers face little traffic and usually take the standard two hours.
Destination Overview: Finike
Finike is a quiet, authentic coastal town known throughout Türkiye for its sweet orange groves and modern yacht marina. Unlike the large resort hubs closer to Antalya, Finike maintains a traditional local atmosphere with seafood restaurants along the harbour and quiet pebble beaches.
It serves as an excellent base for exploring regional history. The ancient Lycian ruins of Limyra and the mountain settlement of Arykanda are a short drive inland, while the harbour is a popular starting point for day trips along the coastline.
