Hotels for Water Sports

Diving, windsurfing, jet skis, catamarans and banana rides — resorts with eight or more water activities right off their own beach.

A holiday is different when the beach is a starting point rather than a place to lie down. The resorts on this page each offer at least eight water activities from their own beach — typically jet skis, banana rides, waterskiing, canoes and pedal boats, with diving, windsurfing, sailing or catamarans at the best-equipped ones.

We have picked 30 of them, ranked by how many activities they run, with an average guest rating of 4.6 out of 5. Most are in Kemer, Side, Belek and Bodrum, where the sheltered bays and steady afternoon breeze suit beginners and experienced riders alike.

One practical note: motorised activities such as jet skis, parasailing and banana rides are almost always paid extra, even at an all-inclusive hotel, while canoes, pedal boats and windsurf boards are often included. Diving is usually run by a local school with a try-dive for beginners. Ask at the beach desk on your first day — the good slots in July and August go early.
