Where is the best place to visit Turkey in May?
For the sea to be warm, at least 20 degrees. Not for the May holidays, but the numbers from 10-12 days to 10-14. I read different sites about the weather and I just can’t understand where they write that it’s warmer in Alanya, where it’s in Side, and on some, Fethiye is generally indicated as a warm resort in May. Tell us who was, please, where is it better to go so as not to freeze (at least during the day so that it is 25 degrees) and the water in the sea is at least 19-20 degrees?

If the Mediterranean coast is the region of Antalya - it doesn't matter)) Though Kemer, even Alanya. Side is generally near almost Alanya, the difference of 20-30 km does not make the weather)) In Kemer there may be short-term rains at this time, which do not spoil the rest, but in Alanya the sea "rages" at this time, which is more sad .. Temperature water and air are approximately the same, the difference is 1-2 degrees. And the sea is "warm" not earlier than May 20. The air temperature can rise up to 30 in the afternoon in early May in the sun, so if you freeze - don't freeze! And even burn. But swimming in early-mid May .... Brrr .. Although many write here that they swam) But you should not take it seriously for everyone .. Definitely in May you should not go to the Aegean coast (Marmaris, Bodrum). Fehiye is perhaps the warmest place in the Mediterranean in May, especially in the Olu Deniz bay area. Only now, from many regions of the Russian Federation, charters to Dalaman begin to fly stably not earlier than the end of May.

I will fly from Moscow. And yet ... How many degrees is the cold sea? It is written that in Fethiye it is generally 23, in Alanya 20, in Side 22 ... But how is it really? 20 would be fine for me. And I don't need heat. I don't consider Kemer, I don't like it. And yes, I'm NOT asking about the beginning of May, but from about the 10th to the 25th. I won’t fly to May, that’s for sure.

Well, I mean I'll be there until 25-27 if I go. And I want to go in the middle of the month, on the 13th, maybe 15th, maybe 12th ... How will it turn out.
And if you fly in June, numbers 5-7, then where is it better? Except Kemer.

You can already Marmaris, Bodrum, although the sea fully warms up to 24-26 degrees only by the end of June. But you seem to be from walruses))), so it’s quite possible! Although, if you don’t like Kemer ... there (Marmaris, Bodrum) are also mostly pebble beaches. Basically, you can go anywhere you like. We usually go from May 22-24, I’m from the cold, but I’m already swimming with pleasure. From June 5-10 it is already hot in Kemer, at 6 am 25-27 degrees))

Of the resorts you mentioned, Fethiye is the coldest in May, then Side. It is warmest in Alanya and the southern villages of Kemer.
If you don't like Kemer, then Alanya, no options. Just look carefully at the hotel, there are also pebble beaches. Which, combined with the dull steppe landscapes and the wind, spoils the mood.
No one will tell you the specific temperature, it varies from year to year. Maybe there will be 20 in Fethiye, who knows? Personally, I went to Fethiye to "cool off" - in the middle of JULY the water was 23-24.

This is how anyone likes it! City hotels usually have small areas. In the villages - large and better landscaped.

If the choice is between Alanya and Side - I'm for Side! Alanya (starting from Okucialar and ending with Mahmutlar) is the only place in Turkey that I love. In Side, the sea will be 100% 22-23, and there is no wind like it happens in Alanya.
By the way, Fethiye also has sand and pebble beaches)))
But in Marmaris (opposite the Atlatis Water Park) there is sand.
Think about Alanya again - maybe it's not necessary?

22-23 degrees in May in Side??? How much in Alanya? For me, the most important factor is the t-cheers of water. And so that it is not boring, so that there is somewhere to go in the evening, I do not like to sit in a hotel in the evenings.

Alanya is not so far from Side that the water temperature differs. I have been more than once, though since May 30, I don’t know exactly how much water, but I think no less than 25-26. Anyway, I don't like too *invigorating* water and I was fine. If you like sand, then in Lara it will definitely be there and not a single pebble or pebble)

In Alanya, 23 will definitely be. We were in Okucialar (this is about 30-40 km before reaching Alanya) from May 15, by the 20th the water was 23))) - there is a photo chronicle in the photo, a board with measurements accidentally hit :)))
But Alanya is NOT BEAUTIFUL!!! AND BORING!!!
Still, whatever one may say, in Side there is where to go for a walk: there is an old fortress, and clubs, and cafes, and shops ...
Although, to be honest, I love Tekirova, Marmaris, Fethiye more ... well, and a little less Bodrum.
So I still recommend SIDE.

Personally, I like the southwestern coast more, but in May I would not dare to go there (even in Fethiye, even in Oludeniz :)))
As for the Antalya coast. Between Kemer and Alanya would choose Kemer. I like the mountains more than the steppe.
