Nights average 6.4°C; one night in ten drops to 2.7°C or lower, so pack a layer for evenings - it is genuinely cool after dark. Between 1991 and 2020 the hottest February day here reached 23.8°C (2016-02-16) and the coldest night -1.7°C (1991-02-04).

Is February a good time to visit Belek?

Mild afternoons, but keep your coat
The daytime average makes outdoor plans reasonable, provided you dress for cool weather rather than summer. The warmest days reach around 18°C or more, so a sheltered spot in sunshine may feel pleasant, but that is not the everyday expectation. At the other end, the coldest nights drop to around 3°C or below. Pack layers, a warm outer layer for evenings and closed shoes rather than relying on sandals. Midday is the sensible time to make the most of any warmth; do not assume it will last into dinner outdoors. February suits travellers who prefer avoiding heat and do not mind keeping a jacket handy.
Plan around rain, not sea swimming
Rain is a meaningful catch: February has about 9 rainy days, so leave room to move outdoor plans when the weather turns. A waterproof jacket and shoes that cope with wet ground are more useful than packing only for dry afternoons. There is still about 5.8 hours of sunshine a day within 10.6 hours of daylight, giving you scope for time outside without promising clear skies throughout your stay. The sea averages 16.9°C, which is cold rather than comfortably swimmable. Treat the coast as somewhere to spend time in suitable weather, not the basis of a swimming holiday. If swimming matters, check pool heating before booking rather than assuming it.
