Traveling with a van, discovering new places to the fullest and also being at home while experiencing all those adventures has a special meaning for us, Ontrail people. If you’re like us and wonder about different van-friendly camping spots in another country, here’s our favorites from Türkiye!
1. Sundance - Tekirova, Antalya
Located in the southern Türkiye, Sundance Tekirova is one of the best camping spots, in which you can park your van under the trees and camp with the sound of birds, or experience the tents and bungalow houses in the facility.
Sundance Camp, which has all the facilities you might need in a camping area, is one of our favorites.
It’s approximately 250 meters from the beach and joins the Ancient City of Phaselis after a 20-minute walk on the Lycian Way. If you’ve already come this far, do not go back without taking a walk on the Lycian Way.
