TL;DR
Locals recommend Konyaaltı beach as the top pick in Antalya, but it's pebble, not sand — bring water shoes to walk in comfortably.
A local recommends Konyaaltı as the go-to beach in Antalya, calling it the most popular option among residents
Key detail: Konyaaltı is a pebble beach, not sand, so walking barefoot at the shoreline can be uncomfortable
To protect your feet from the pebbles, bring cloth water shoes (aqua shoes) — a cheap and practical fix for this type of beach
A joke in the chat hints that on this popular beach, visitors are sometimes asked to move from prime spots (e.g. near hotel-reserved areas) — be ready to just find your own free patch of beach
