A small resort port city on the southern Mediterranean coast of Turkey attracts tourists from the UK. It is a great resort for those who are looking for sun and warmth even in late autumn.

The town of Side, between Antalya and Manavgat, is known for its long coastline and Greco-Roman ruins. The Sun writes why it is worth visiting.

Travel company Thomas Cook has included Side in the top 10 most popular destinations for short vacations. You can relax here until late autumn, as the temperature remains at an average of 21°C.

In addition to historical heritage, you can go shopping in Side. Tourists appreciate the region for its attractive prices for leather goods, jewelry, and souvenirs.

After relaxing on the white sandy beaches, you can safely go in search of ancient ruins. The most popular attraction is the Temple of Apollo, which dates back to 150 AD.

Tours to Side are much cheaper than to the neighboring resort of Antalya, and the trip takes up to an hour. In addition, the town is not flooded with tourists after the summer season, which allows you to enjoy its beauty without crowds and queues.
