You step out of the 4x4 at Yassı Tepe with the Mediterranean already pulling at the horizon. Salt and sun hit the back of your neck; the town’s white buildings slip away below and a crescent of sand—Cleopatra Beach—stretches like a bright promise. The pilot checks the lines, clips your harness, and in a few brisk steps the canopy fills. Gravity loosens its grip and you are airborne: Alanya becomes a map of terracotta roofs, pine-stippled ridgelines and the glittering gulf that dares you to look down.
