     Attractions 


Yalikavak
The picturesque town of Yalikavak lies on the north-west tip of the
Bodrum peninsula, one of Turkey's most historically important and
beautiful areas. Yalikavak is renowned for it's superb sunsets,
unspoilt shorelines and sparkling clean seas. It is located just 10
miles from Bodrum town and used to be a fishing and sponge divers
village. The village is surrounded by some of the most spectacular
scenery on the Bodrum Peninsula. The relaxed atmosphere makes it the
perfect resort for those who want to experience the "real Turkey",
providing authentic local life at reasonable prices.

Eating out and Shopping

The small harbour is lined with traditional Turkish restaurants
offering the freshest seafood. The charming village square is a
popular meeting place with its many authentic coffee houses and it's
cobbled streets offering shopping opportunities. It has a good
selection of shops for a village - including a post office, chemist
and bank - catering for all your needs and giving an excellent
service. During the summer the shops are usually open until
midnight. The village hosts a popular clothing and food market once
a week on a Thursday and a flea market on the last Sunday of the
month.

Harbour and Marina

This fertile coastline with clear waters and a small beach is ideal
for sailing and water sports and attracts many foreign yachts to the
harbour which once sheltered fishing boats. The newly built Port
Bodrum in Yalikavak has brought new visitors and a sleek,
sophisticated new image. The 450 berth marina offers its guests
everything a five-star resort can provide. It also offers some
interesting attractions such as diving and sailing schools.

Attractions and History

Many buildings in the town have undergone sensitive restoration
including the conversion of an old water cistern into an art
gallery. Yalikavak's history goes parallel with that of Bodrum.
Today, most of the archaeological remains are unexcavated sites. It
is suggested that the ancient city of Yalıkavak was situated on top
of one of the hills. Few tombstones and city walls still bear
witness to history of the town. the Carian cave tombs are worth
seeing. The tombs have been carved directly into the rock and
fronted with cut stones. It once contained a funerary urn in the
shape of a ship's prow. Located along the main road are a number of
antique cisterns which have been used by the numerous civilizations.
Many are still used today. Yalikavak is famous for the numerous
windmills found in the vicinity. The winds that until recently
turned the vanes of these working windmills, now fill the sails of
boats and windsurfs. Another “typical” feature found in abundance
here are domed water cisterns which, in the past, were used in times
of drought and are now being adapted for artistic and cultural uses

Bodrum - (17km from apartment)

Bodrum, home of the famous Greek historian Herodotus, is these days
better known as a popular holiday resort. Here you will find
villages of white houses trimmed with purple bougainvillea and miles
of sandy beaches with a variety of water sports.

This charming town attracts a diverse mix of visitors who stroll
along its long palm-lined waterfront, while elegant yachts fill the
marina. Not far from the town, you can swim in clear, tideless, warm
seas. Underwater divers explore the numerous reefs, caves and
majestic rock formations. Bodrum has gained the reputation as the
centre of the Turkish art community with its lively, friendly and
Bohemian atmosphere and many small galleries. The evenings in Bodrum
cater for all tastes from relaxing in one of the many restaurants or
cafes, dining on fresh seafood and other Aegean specialties, to some
of the best clubs in Europe which keep going until dawn!

Aqua-park Dedeman Bodrum
The children - and most adults! - will enjoy the attractions
provided here. The park was established on an area of 40 000m2 in
1993. It offers visitors a variety of extended facilities apart from
its pools, jacuzzis and water slides, such as restaurants, bars and
nightclubs.

Myndos at Gumusluk (10minutes from Apartment)

Gumusluk is 45 kilometers from Bodrum and is set amidst tangerine
groves. It is a lively fishing port, with numerous fish restaurants
along the promenade, displaying a wide variety of locally caught
seafood. Thanks to strictly enforced building prohibitions, the sea
front has kept its original appearance and fishing village charm. No
cars are allowed in the central area. The history of the town is at
least as old as that of Bodrum. Gumusluk is the site of a Lelege
town founded 5,000 years ago, then called Myndos. You can also
snorkell over the sunken city. Visiting Rabbit island - you may
paddle over to it! - is a must.
