Tourists flock to Antalya during Easter holiday

In April 2020, only 905 holidaymakers arrived in the tourist hotspot, but in the first two weeks of this month alone, Antalya already welcomed 300,000 travelers, up from 178,000 visitors in the whole of April last year.

Apparently, Europeans, who could not go on vacation during the Easter holiday in the past two years due to the COVID-19-related travel restrictions, are now flocking to the Mediterranean coasts, said Recep Yavuz from the Antalya City Council’s Tourism Working Group.

During the Easter holiday, people are vacationing in Turkey, Spain, Portugal and Greece. This inflow of tourists provides a lifeline to Antalya.
