How long does it take from Antalya Airport to Kaş?
The road distance between Antalya Airport (AYT) and Kaş is around 185 kilometres, and in normal traffic the drive takes between 2.5 and 3 hours. In the summer season, congestion on the D400 can lengthen this by more than half an hour.
Route details
From the airport you join the D400 heading west and reach Kaş via Kemer, Finike and Demre. The section after Kemer is mountainous and winding; the stretch between Finike and Demre calls for particular care. Night driving on this road takes experience.
Factors that affect the time
- Traffic: In the summer months the coastal road grows markedly busier.
- Route: The D400 is the only practical option; there is no short alternative road.
- Weather: In the winter months the mountain sections call for careful driving.
The most predictable way to Kaş
Coming to Kaş by bus takes a long time and also needs extra transport from the terminal to your hotel. In a district where public transport is limited, this final stretch can be a problem. With a private transfer the car meets you at the airport, tracks your flight and takes you straight to your hotel door; the fare is settled when you book and does not change on the way.
