Choosing Altinkum Just about Guarantees You a Great Holiday

If you are looking for a great place to holiday, or are even thinking about buying a holiday home in Turkey, then Altinkum is definitely worth investigating. It's located in a gorgeous part of the country, right on the Aegean coast, and is surrounded by spectacular scenery.

In spite of this it's very easy to reach, as it's just 110 km away from Bodrum, and just 200 km from Izmir, both of which have international airports that are well served with charter flights from the UK. Altinkum is also just 73 km away from Kusadasi, which is one of the most important tourist resorts in Turkey, and is well worth at least a day trip. It's also a good place to visit if you have children, as it is home to one of the largest water parks in Europe.

However you can have a great holiday without ever leaving Altinkum. This family friendly resort has three gorgeous beaches, and in fact its name means "Golden Sand," and with shallow waters these beaches are perfect for young children who are just learning to swim.

There's plenty going on at the beach, as there are numerous bars and restaurants nearby, so it's easy to get a cold drink or a snack without taking too much time off from sunbathing. If you want to do something slightly more active then there are plenty of water sports to try, including windsurfing, banana boat rides and jet skis, or if you simply want to potter about then you can always rent a pedalo.

With plenty of shops and restaurants, and friendly people, it's easy to see the charms of Altinkum, and if you get talking to other tourists you'll frequently find they have come here before, which is always a great recommendation.
