Walking

If you're in the center of Alanya, start at the Alanya Harbour (Alanya Limanı). From the harbor, head southeast towards the coastline. Continue walking along the promenade (Kordonboyu) for about 1 kilometer. You will pass by shops and cafes. As you walk, keep the sea on your left. After about 15 minutes, you will see the Alanya Castle (Kale) in the distance. Keep walking until you reach the end of the promenade, where you will see a path leading up towards the lighthouse.

Public Transport

From the center of Alanya, take a local bus (Dolmuş) heading towards the Alanya Castle area. The bus stop closest to you is likely near the Alanya Bazaar (Alanya Çarşı). Board the bus and ride for about 10 minutes until you reach the stop for Alanya Castle (Kale). Once you get off, follow the signs leading to the lighthouse, which is a short walk up the hill from the bus stop.

Bicycle

Rent a bicycle from one of the rental shops in Alanya. Start from the center and head towards the coast. Follow the promenade (Kordonboyu) cycling path, which is well-marked and safe for cyclists.
