Description

Iskele Parki is a diverse area 45 km east of Antalya. I was there in April 2023 and the reed beds were filled with wablers, Landsvale, Isfugl, Purpurhejre and Plettet Rørvagtel. You can walk or drive until there is a parking where the river ends in the sea. Here is a much dryer area with more semi desert birds and a small beach with some waders. Species seen there were many Rødhovedet Tornskade, Toplærke, Stenpikker, Triel, Sporevibe, Stor Præstekrave, Rørsanger and Yndefuld Prinia.

Access

Iskele Parki is behind the Port Nature Luxury Resort Hotel & Spa. From the hotel there is only one way that ends at the beach. I had to come from further so then you can drive until the beach to a parking and explore the area on foot. Click on the P in the map for directions or coordinates.
