Top 10 Nature & Wildlife Areas in Turkish Aegean Coast, Turkey

Reviewed By 247Lifeisforliving

What a wonderful place for a holiday. I travelled with adult family who visited six years ago and how lucky I feel to have been with them this time. The villa we stayed in was ideal with a fantastic view of the tombs and a few minutes walk to the local supermarket and then into the town dotted with restaurants along the way. The town itself had everything you need where we have enjoyed meals, drinks, shopping and strolling, experiencing the friendly service from the locals - the Saturday market is a must for superb fresh produce! The icing on the cake though were the two private boat trips we had for the five of us, one along the river and another out to sea. The river is so unspoilt and the surrounding views breathtaking with the delights of crab fishing (which we turned back into the river after admiring the beauty and varying sizes of the 21 we caught with the added bonus of watching the birds diving for the chicken bait we left) turtle spotting (so big!) and swimming especially in the hot springs. Out to sea we visited coves and beaches that were simply stunning. Thank goodness the area is protected because not once was our view of the natural rugged beauty marred by any building over two storeys high. A wonderful place and such friendly people. A revelation!
