Beach near Kars, Turkey

Kars Travel Guide

Turkey

Kars is a city of 77,486 people in eastern Turkey, close to the country’s eastern frontier. It is inland, so the city itself is not a base for a beach holiday.

Travellers arriving by air use Kars Airport (KSY). There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of Kars, so plan coastal visits separately rather than as a day trip from the city.
