Travel to Turkey
The Bodrum peninsula
....outside the town
- plenty of places to enjoy!
Turgutreis
You find this little town at the western tip of the peninsula. Named after the
famous admiral, Turgut Reis, this is a *stroll* town in its own right and
combines a compact town center with several long sandy beaches. This part of the
coast is favored by professional wind surfers as the winds are generally strong.
Regular buses connect Turgutreis with Bodrum, and in high season coaches for
Istanbul and Ankara leave from the Turgutreis bus station.
Kadikalesi, is next to Turgutreis and offers some of the finest holiday resorts.
Gündogan
Only a few minutes West of Yalikavak a place that can be really called peaceful. It is little village which is still more or less unspoiled despite the holiday developments on the surrounding hills. Here in the North of the peninsula a fresh breeze often comes . A reason why many surfers prefer this bay.
Gümüslük
Gümüs is the Turkish word for Silver. Thanks to strictly enforced building
prohibitions, the sea front has kept its original appearance and photogenic
fishing village charm. This is the ideal spot for peace and quiet, with the
added advantage of many excellent fish restaurants along the small waterfront,
where you can sit comfortably next to the gently lapping sea.
Your feet are touching historical ground here, it is the harbor of ancient
Myndos
Yalikavak
Turn right on the main road near Ortakent, after 10 km you come to Yalikavak
with its small, but busy, center and a harbour where visiting yachts and fishing
boats moor cheerfully together. The restaurants in the town center and on the
sea front are popular with locals and
tourists alike.
Here is little beach, but it's more comfortable to sit in a waterside cafe and
watch the world go by. Several buildings have been tastefully restored in the
town; a former water cistern has become a small art gallery and a former olive
oil press is converted into a kilim
showroom where visitors are welcome.
Akyarlar
Good camping sites and an ideal surrounding for wind surfers are here. The
marvelous scenery of the Greek Aegean islands is just in front of you and it is
perhaps one of the safest, sandiest beaches for children on the peninsula. There
are several cafes and a tiny harbor. Camping facilities and a couple of small,
inexpensive pensions for independent travelers. Still this place has its own
tranquil charm
Kizilagac
Hinter Kizilagac befindet eine der schönsten Ferienanlagen der Halbinsel - das
vom Schweizer Konzern betriebene Seagarden. Vorbildich zwischen drei Buchten
gelagert, kann der Tourist alle Annehmlichkeiten eines solchen Komplexes
genießen.
Torba
This little village is hiding in a charming little bay. Heading North of Bodrum
Torba is the nearest village. It is only active during the summer months, but
due to the generally high quality of the holiday home developments is a pleasant
and relaxed place to visit.
There are also the remains of a Byzantine monastery, and nearby is a small path
leading to the next bay, which is ideal for a little light walking.
Ferries to Didim (ancient Didyma) leave from Torba harbor across the Gulf of
Güllük.
Türkbükü und Gölköy
These two fishing villages we will mention in one, because they are close to
eachother. You find them on the peninsula map east of Yalikavak. These
delightful spots are the favorite retreats of many well-known Turkish artists,
actors and entertainers who enliven the many small bars and restaurants at night.
Several of the more popular restaurants are run by Istanbul couples who have
fled the big city.
