Sun, sea and centuries past

The year round warm climate gives you more time to spend on Akbuk’s beautiful white sands taking in the views of the tranquil bay and swimming in the clear, clean water. If you crave more action you can always take time to learn to sail, windsurf or scuba dive.

Walk across the centuries old marble floored courtyard in the ancient city of Ephasus and rest awhile on the high stone seats at the ancient theatre at Priene.

Eat, drink and be merry

There are some excellent restaurants in Akbuk where you can enjoy a delicious meze with a glass of Raki, followed by the sweetest tasting baklava. Afterwards a stroll down to the harbour for a late night drink is the perfect end to a lovely day.

If you prefer a livelier night out it’s only a short drive to Altinkum’s bars and nightclubs along the coast where you can sing and dance all night long if you want to.
