Altinkum

   Altinkum is set on the western Aegean coast of Turkey approximately halfway between the more widely known cosmopolitan resorts of Bodrum and Kusadasi. Set on a wide sandy bay, Altinkum is a purpose-built resort with a relaxed and informal atmosphere. It is the perfect place for those wanting a lazy beach holiday as there are no fewer than three within easy reach.

   Altinkum’s main beach is famous for its long stretch of golden sands (in fact Altinkum translates literally to Golden Sands) There you can bask in the glorious sunshine, potter in a pedalo or try out a range of water sports. A short walk away, beyond the harbour, is the ever popular Third Beach which offers a quieter environment with its clear and sparkling waters and stretch of soft sand. Another walk in the opposite direction brings you to the lively Second Beach area, again a long stretch of golden soft sand with clear blue waters, and surrounded by bars, shops and restaurants.

   Altinkum is surrounded by famous historical sites, just 3 km away is the impressive Temple of Apollo whose three columns still stand to their full height measuring almost 20 metres. This 2000 year old site is steeped in history and well worth a visit. A mass of marble stumps gives an idea of the colossal size of the original structure. Other sites worth visiting include the classical Greek city of Prienne and the ancient port of Miletus, both just a short journey away.
