Bodrum, Turkey

To use a holiday brochure cliche, the Bodrum Peninsula has a holiday resort to suit everyone, from the bustling city of Bodrum to the peaceful sandy beaches of Bitez that are so ideal for paddling. Watersports enthusiasts have plenty to keep them occupied here, and there's plenty of history and rural charm if you want to experience the 'real' Turkey.

At the heart of the Bodrum peninsula, built around two bays and dominated by the imposing 15th century Crusader's Castle, is the eclectic town of Bodrum. The elegant low-level whitewashed houses of Bodrum cascade down the hillside to meet at the colourful harbour front. The cobbled alleyways of the bazaar market area in the town's centre are bursting with life both during the day and at night.

Whether you stay in Bodrum itself, with its small local beach, or choose one of the many sandy coves close by, you will have the choice of spending a peaceful relaxing day lying in the sun or indulging in some fantastic water sports.

Bodrum is undisputedly the nightlife capital of Turkey, with a wide choice of bars all staying open to the early hours. It also boasts the Mediterranean's most impressive open-air nightclub, the Halikarnas. People mostly sleep later in Bodrum so they can enjoy the wide range of restaurants and bars, before going on to a disco or nightclub.

Sightseeing & Activities

Even if you are not staying in Bodrum a visit to this busy resort is a wonderful day out. The Castle of St Peter with its amazing maritime museum is fascinating; alternatively stroll through the marina with its charming boutiques and elegant yachts. There is a fantastic selection of waterfront shops, and Bodrum's pedestrian shopping lanes will keep you busy during the day. All around the Bodrum peninsular there are wonderful opportunities for watersports. You can try your hand at water skiing, parasailing, dinghy sailing, windsurfing or perhaps the more sedate pastimes of canoeing or pedaloes. For more organised excursions experience a day out to Ephesus, one of the best-preserved archaeological sites in the world. Also worth a visit is Pamukkale, one of nature's phenomena where hot mineral waters flow down the mountain and have solidified to form snowy white pools. As you might expect, boat trips are widely available and you can even take your passport and take a trip to the nearby Greek island of Kos.
