The Aegean Coast region
The Aegean region of Turkey is a mixture of modern and traditional lifestyle. There are large modern cities such as Izmir and Aydin through to small old fashioned villages. A large proportion of the land is for farming so the area remains undamaged by industry.
The regions climate is superb - warm and pleasant for most of the year, but it also has a high oxygen ratio and low humidity rate, making it very advantageous to one’s health. Turkish doctors often refer patients with chest conditions to come to Didim for convalescence. Asthma sufferers and those with bronchitis will feel the benefits almost immediately.
Altinkum itself benefits from a continual light breeze, making even the warmest of hot summer days feel quite pleasant. Most of the resort faces south for maximum sunshine and here in Altinkum we experience more than 330 days of sunshine every year.
Within a short drive of Altinkum Didim, there is a wide range of places to see. All are accessible by car or by booking with a local tour operator.
New for 2009, Izmir's wildlife park has opened. The fantastic parklands home one of the widest collections of wild animals in Europe. Izmir is a 2 hour drive from Altinkum, Didim.
In Kusadasi, (less than an hour's drive) Europe's largest water park (and the 7th largest in the world) is open (Adaland) where one can swim with dolphins if splashing around and trying out the daring water shoots isn't enough fun for one day. Didim also has its own excellent water park which is accessible by local bus (dolmus). Kusadasi houses some of the countries finest luxury shops, for those with plenty of spending money or for those who like to window shop!
Bodrum is well worth a visit and can be reached by road or via a boat trip along the coast. Bodrum is a picturesque seaside resort with its own marina, castle and beaches.
