Local notes for Kaleici
Kaleici is the walled old harbour quarter of Antalya, with Roman gates, a tower, narrow Ottoman streets and boutique hotels, so hot cobbled walks and long days outdoors are typical. After a day on the beach, a sunburn, an ear infection or a stomach bug can appear rapidly, so it allows to know a doctor is a message away.
