Altinkum, the Family Friendly Resort

Altinkum is a very family friendly resort located in a beautiful area along the Aegean Coast. It is renowned for having three extremely nice beaches that are perfect for families with small children as the beach shelves away very gently. 
 
The beaches are super clean, and there is always plenty of space for sunbathing, and it is easy to rent a sun lounger and umbrella for the day at a very reasonable cost. In fact it would be very easy to spend the entire holiday on the beach, as everything you need is nearby, including numerous bars and restaurants.

Although it isn’t an enormous resort, it does have sufficient shops selling everything you are likely to need, as well as a weekly market selling plenty of fresh produce, and locally made crafts that are perfect for souvenirs. In spite of the fact that it has developed quite rapidly over the last ten years or so, Altinkum has managed to retain its unspoiled air. 
 
Altinkum is easily accessible from either Bodrum International airport, or from Izmir International Airport, and is a good choice for a family location as there is such a diverse range of activities available. There are plenty of water sports, and a water park in Altinkum, or it’s a great area for hiking in, especially in nearby Lake Bafa. The area is particularly well known for its abundance of historical sites that would keep even the most avid history buff occupied for a couple of weeks at least.
