If you are looking for a destination that is the polar opposite of the high-rise "all-inclusive" world, Çıralı is your sanctuary. Located in a protected nature reserve where the sea turtles (Caretta Caretta) nest, Çıralı is a rare paradise of orange groves, pebble beaches, and the eternal flames of the Chimaera.
At MobilityHire Antalya, we know that Çıralı’s rustic charm can sometimes present challenges for those with mobility needs. However, with the right equipment and a bit of planning, this tranquil village is a wonderful place to rediscover nature. Here is your guide to an accessible holiday in Çıralı.
Çıralı is a low-impact, eco-tourism village. You won’t find giant elevators or concrete skywalks here, but you will find a remarkably flat valley floor that is perfect for exploration.
The village of Çıralı sits on a wide, flat coastal plain. The main roads winding through the village are mostly level, making it one of the best spots in the Kemer region for mobility scooters. You can easily glide past pomegranate orchards and garden cafes without facing steep inclines.
The beach road in Çıralı runs parallel to the shore for several kilometers. While the beach itself is pebbly, the road is paved or hard-packed earth, offering a smooth surface for scooters and wheelchairs. It’s an ideal route for a morning ride to enjoy the fresh mountain air and sea views.
Most accommodations in Çıralı are wooden bungalows or "pansiyons." Many of these are built on ground level with no stairs, making them much more accessible than older hotels in city centers.
With a rental from MobilityHire Antalya, you can experience the magic of the Lycian coast:
Olympos Ancient City (North Entrance): While the interior of the ruins can be rocky, the entrance near the Çıralı beach is relatively flat. You can view the ancient walls and the riverbed where history meets the sea.
The Beachfront Promenade: Enjoy a long evening stroll (or roll!) toward the southern end of the bay where the cliffs of Olympos rise dramatically from the water.
Garden Dining: Çıralı is famous for its "garden restaurants." Most feature outdoor, level-access seating under vine-covered pergolas—perfect for enjoying local organic food in your mobility device.
Chimaera (Yanartaş) Lower Viewpoint: The hike to the "eternal flames" is steep and not accessible. However, the base of the mountain and the entrance park offer a peaceful forest atmosphere that can be enjoyed with a heavy-duty scooter.
Since Çıralı is a protected area, specialized medical and mobility equipment is not available locally. That’s where we come in.
Direct-to-Bungalow Delivery: Whether you are staying at a hidden garden pension or a luxury boutique bungalow, we deliver your scooter, electric wheelchair, or manual chair directly to your door.
The Right Equipment for Rustic Roads: Because some paths in Çıralı are unpaved, we recommend our Off-Road or Heavy-Duty Mobility Scooters. These models have larger tires and superior suspension to handle the village’s natural terrain comfortably.
Medikal Support for Peace of Mind: If your stay requires an electric hospital bed or a patient lift, we provide full installation and setup services in your accommodation.
VIP Accessible Transfers: Getting to Çıralı from Antalya Airport (AYT) involves a scenic but winding mountain road. Our Wheelchair Accessible Vehicles (WAVs) ensure you travel in comfort and safety with all your gear.
Protect the Turtles: Çıralı is a nesting site for endangered sea turtles. Please stay on the designated paths near the beach and avoid using bright lights or driving onto the sand during nesting season (May to September).
Battery Management: Çıralı is larger than it looks! Make sure to charge your device every night. Our chargers work perfectly with the standard 220V outlets found in all Çıralı pensions.
Book Early: Because Çıralı is a boutique destination with a short peak season, we recommend booking your mobility equipment at
Çıralı is a place where time slows down. It is a destination for those who want to hear the birds, smell the orange blossoms, and watch the stars. With the right support from MobilityHire Antalya, your mobility doesn't have to be a barrier to experiencing this Lycian paradise.
