Which Airport Is Closest to Kaş?
When you plan a trip to Kaş, the airport you fly into — and how you travel onward — is an important decision. Two airports serve Kaş, and each has its own advantages.
The Airports Nearest to Kaş
- Dalaman Airport (DLM): By road this is the closest airport to Kaş — about 170-180 km, roughly 2-2.5 hours by car. However, the number of flights from Dalaman is more limited compared with Antalya.
- Antalya Airport (AYT): It sits a little farther from Kaş by road (~185-200 km, ~2.5-3 hours), but it offers far more frequent international flights. That is why the great majority of European visitors reach Kaş via Antalya.
Which Should You Choose?
Your choice depends on where you fly from. Dalaman is often used for holiday flights out of the UK and Germany; if you have a convenient direct flight, its shorter road distance is a bonus. Antalya, with its wider flight network, is the practical gateway for most travellers, so it usually comes down to which airport your route serves better.
Getting from the Airport to Kaş
From either airport, the most comfortable way to Kaş is a private transfer; an experienced driver brings reassurance on a mountainous, winding road. With Duru VIP Transfer the fare is fixed at booking, the driver meets you with a name sign, your flight is tracked, and you are taken straight to your accommodation.
