I was in Turkey in the city of Antalya in May. Beautiful weather, sunny, no wind, warm sea. This month the air temperature reaches 20 - 25 degrees, the water temperature is 20 degrees. You can already swim. But at night it’s still cool, so you need to take Bring a windbreaker with you. At night the wind can blow and feel cool. therefore, you definitely need to take something warm with you. In May, I saw Antalya blooming and smelling, the aromas of flowers and fresh fruits all around, the gentle aroma of the sea will captivate you to go swimming, bask in the sun, buy yourself a fresh watermelon, drink a cool mojito and relax on the beach under an umbrella. I really like the warm, but not very hot, fragrant Antalya in May. I want to return there all the time. It’s not worth spending the night on the beach at this time, if you don’t want to catch a cold, it’s better to go to a hotel room and give up for now For a romantic one, spend the night on the beach or on the roof. The weather in May remains stable, sometimes it can rain. Therefore, just in case, you should take an umbrella. As soon as I remember the warm spring fragrant Antalya, I want to return there again.
With the start of the school holidays, we decided to change our surroundings, relax and recharge ourselves in the sun. A family of 3 went to Marmaris (Türkiye). We chose a vacation spot based on weather conditions. We missed the sun, but didn't want the heat. We went for a relaxing beach holiday. We got what we wanted. We were lucky with the weather: during the day it was comfortable, not stuffy, with an average temperature of +25. You could easily sunbathe and swim (water + 22). By evening the temperature dropped, but not critically. It was +20. The weather was cloudy only once. We were pleased with the vacation.
I flew here specifically to do some shopping, for a sensational week of shopping. It takes place here every year in April. I collected a lot of things for myself, for friends, and even some things to sell. The weather is perfect for walking around the city and shopping. If you think about it, you can get to the tulip festival at the same time. Just at this time everything is starting to bloom, the beauty is indescribable! The degrees are approximately +15-17, a lot of sun. If there was any rain, it was rare and very light. A light jacket is enough for walking. And even then, I wore it in the evening, mostly.
We lived in Turkey for about 2 years with a guy. April is quiet here because there are almost no tourists yet. At this time it’s great to walk, go somewhere on excursions, because... It’s already warm, but it’s too early to go to the sea. During the day the temperature reaches 22 degrees, with an average of 15-17. In the evenings everyone wears jackets. The temperature is only 3-4 degrees, sometimes a little more. It's raining. Small, but common for Turkey. Once, sometimes twice a week.
I was afraid that the heat would be completely unbearable, but in vain. In principle, approximately the same as in our hot summer: +25-27. Nothing particularly unbearable. As in Crimea, the main thing is not to go to the sea at the peak of the sun. If you go, hide from the sun under an umbrella, wear a brimmed hat, and a long-sleeved jacket. A couple of times it even rained for a short time. But I liked it, it was so pleasantly refreshing. The water is warm: it’s not scary to go in. I recommend this month.
In my opinion, August is the most suitable month to visit the country. The summer season is not accompanied by sweltering heat, but corresponds to a comfortable stay both on the beach and on trips to the sights. The daytime temperature of the sun is +27-31 degrees, in the evening the flame of the sun is replaced by the coolness of the moon within +21-25 degrees. The sea water is on average +25 degrees, no more is required, everything is fine.
The weather in April is no longer bad, but it is definitely too early for swimming in the sea, the water temperature does not exceed +17°C. During the day the weather is sunny +21-26°C, in the evening it is still noticeably cold +13-16°C. The nature is very beautiful, we went to the Köprülü National Park and Canyon. I had never seen eucalyptus and cypress forests before; we had a great time in nature. Clean air, and there is entertainment on site for a small fee.
We spent a week in Marmaris and had mixed impressions. It rained for half of the holiday, the air temperature was around +20-23°C during the day, and +17-18°C at night. For most of the second half the weather was good, within the temperature range of +24-27°C. You can only swim in the water park; the sea is quite cool, still +18°C. In general, the weather did not greatly affect the mood of the holiday; the hotel had a heated swimming pool.
We vacationed in Istanbul with my family in July. The air temperature was +28-32°C, it was quite well tolerated, there was no discomfort. It took literally a day to adapt after the flight. The coast of the Sea of Marmara warms up by an average of +24°C. Sunbathing and swimming are comfortable. Night time is accompanied by a decrease in the thermometer by 5-7 degrees, and shows a value of +23-26°C, and a breeze of 5-6 m/s is remarkably refreshing.
In general, I often go to Turkey on vacation. Typically in spring or autumn. You can’t shop there in winter; it was 17 degrees outside this year, give or take. BUT, no one has yet canceled Turkish shopping in February) There are such good sales here at this time that you can dress the whole family for the year ahead, save money, and also get tickets. Well, it’s great to walk here in this weather; the heat doesn’t bother you. In terms of temperature: approximately the same as our weather in late April-early May. Sometimes it rains.
