Best way to get around Alanya on two wheels

[SchoolBoy]

Hey folks, heading to Alanya for two weeks soon. Want to explore the coast and get to the beaches without walking in that heat. Thinking about renting a small scooter. Any advice on what to look for and where to find decent deals?

A scooter is honestly the best way to cruise around Alanya, traffic gets crazy in summer. You can rent a scooter in Alanya through local shops or aggregators, one example is here https://getrentacar.com/en-US/motorcycle-rental/turkey-alanya . Always wear a helmet, check the brakes before driving, and take photos of any scratches. Ask about deposit, some places hold your passport which is sketchy.

Bring an international driving permit even if they say you don't need one. Local cops sometimes ask for it and can fine you on the spot. Also learn basic Turkish words for police and stop, it helps.
