Turquoise Coast, Turkey

Where to stay for a brilliant holiday on The Turquoise Coast, Turkey

The Turquoise Coast includes the whole area of coastline that can be visited when flying into Dalaman Airport. It's where you'll find both lively and busy towns such as Marmaris, but also some of the most charming resorts, and as the same suggests, beautiful beaches.

The weather tends to be fabulous throughout the summer season, although by late September and into October it has cooled a bit, and you'll need a jacket for the evenings.

Here's a quick guide to some of our favourite resorts...

Dalyan - a medium size resort set on a stunning river with a wide choice of excellent bars and restaurants. The beach is a 45 minute relaxing boat trip away, and many customers say this is their favourite place in Turkey. Carved into the cliffs across the river are the Lycian Rock Tombs dating back from the 4th century. And nearby you can take a mud bath which is great for the skin!

Kalkan - upmarket resort with a marina and access to beaches, plus numerous bars and restaurants both down by the harbour and up the hill with brilliant views. As well as the small town beach, there are a number of beach clubs serving quality food and drinks plus places to relax and sun loungers, usually for a modest charge.

Fethiye - a small town with a number of excellent hotels - the centre is a place for both tourists and locals, while gulets (wooden boats) are ready to take you on boat trips to nearby islands.

Olu Deniz - small to medium seaside resort with a great atmosphere in the evenings and an excellent beach right in the centre, and is also famed for the stunning Blue Lagoon which is one of the most photographed beaches in Turkey.
