Çıralı is a cozy and peaceful village in Turkey, located on the coast near Kemer.

In recent years, it has become popular with many tourists who prefer a quiet vacation to large hotels. In addition to an excellent beach, on one side is the ancient city of Olympos, and on the other is the famous Mount Chimera, or Yanartash, as the Turks call it. Both attractions are within walking distance.
