Following the General Directorate of Meteorology's wind warning of up to 80 kilometers per hour, the storm that began in Antalya around noon created huge waves at the world-famous Konyaaltı Beach. While those wanting to capture those moments on the viewing terrace had difficulty standing, some citizens and tourists entered the sea among the waves without paying attention to the danger. Due to the storm, trees fell onto vehicles at some points.
In Antalya, where the General Directorate of Meteorology issued a warning, the storm that suddenly began around noon covered the world-famous beach in white as it created huge waves.

THEY DID NOT WANT TO MISS THE VIEW
After the General Directorate of Meteorology's warning for today of severe wind and storm with speeds reaching 80 km per hour, the storm was effective in Antalya around noon. The huge waves formed by the severe wind covered the cliffs they battered and the world-famous Konyaaltı Beach in white. Those who did not want to miss this unique view flocked to the variant observation terrace. Those who recorded those moments with mobile phones had difficulty standing at times due to the severe wind.
THEY SWAM AMONG THE HUGE WAVES
Some citizens and tourists on the beach side entered the sea among the huge waves without regard for danger. Some also put their feet into the waves battering the shore. Again, due to the storm, bicycles and signs fell over. In some places, trees also fell onto sidewalks and vehicles.
The storm, accompanied by rainfall in the following hours, is expected to lose its effect during the night hours.
