  • Dolmuş / minibus: From Belek you can go up to the main stop on the D400 and catch a dolmuş heading towards Manavgat or Side; dolmuşes to Side pass through Manavgat. The total time can reach 45 to 70 minutes and is awkward with large luggage.
  • Taxi: For the Belek–Side route a taxi runs on the meter; because of the opening charge and the per-kilometre rate, the amount is not clear in advance.
