- Side old town: the ancient harbour, fish restaurants and the Temple of Apollo, a popular spot at sunset.
- Side Museum: housed in a Roman bath building, with statues and sarcophagi found in the area.
- Day trips: boat trips on the Manavgat River, the Green Canyon and the ancient theatre of Aspendos to the west.
Best time to visit Kumköy
The beach season runs roughly from May to October.
