A salt-tinged breeze meets the bus as you leave Side behind and the Mediterranean spine of cliffs and citrus groves unfurls toward Antalya. By midmorning the guide points out the ragged limestone where Kurşunlu Waterfall drops through a forested gorge — water that dares you to slow down and listen — before the group moves on to the lift at Tünektepe.
