The Mediterranean Coast region
The Turkish Riviera is set in one of the best locations in the world, surrounded by ancient cities and a turquoise sea, and is looked upon as the new face of Turkish tourism. Approximately 10 minutes drive from the resort beautiful sandy beaches are available to enjoy and for the active to embrace the many water sports on offer.
Paragliding, water skiing, jet skis, underwater diving, Mountain biking and yachting are just some of the activities in the area. Away from the beach front you can find beautiful National Parks with magnificent waterfalls and flora.
Perhaps you would prefer mountaineering, caving, white water rafting, hunting or fishing - you choose. Turkey is possibly one of the very few countries in the world where you can go skiing in the morning and swimming in the sea in the afternoon!
For guests who are enthusiastic golfers, this area is your oyster. Belek is now home to 8 championship golf courses including the newly opened Nick Faldo course, with a further three under construction, and a target of more than 100 courses to meet the country’s aim of becoming the golfing centre of Europe. Resort management staff can book tee times and provide transport to and from the courses.
Belek area
This region offers everything you could possibly imagine. It has blue flag beaches, world class golf courses, historical places within a close distance, 300 sunshine filled days, plus incredible low humidity and sea fresh clean air.
Golf: Belek is just 15mins from Augustus Village and is fast becoming the most popular golf resort in Europe. It is now home to eight championship golf courses, including the newly opened Nick Faldo course, with a further three under construction with signature designs from Bernhard Langer, Colin Montgomerie and Peter Thomson.There are a total of 30 courses planned for the area.
The courses are designed for varying abilities from beginners to good amateurs up to professionals - they offer a real challenge. The majority of the courses are set within beautiful pine forests (with a 'Woburn' like feel to them) and offer a combination of views of the Mediterranean Sea and the Taurus Mountains.
Belek also offers a large variety of shops, restaurants, night-life and all year round activities. In addition to the social aspects there are excellent medical facilities.
Places of Historical Interest:
Perge: Perge was the second biggest ancient city in Anatolia situated in the district of Aksu. The ruins of the city are vast and although excavations started in 1946, today the city has still not been fully uncovered. Here you will find the ruins of the once magnificent theatre, a u-shaped stadium still in a very good state of preservation, a Gateway and the remains of the wall that surrounded Perge in the Hellenistic period.
Side – (pronounced see-day): Just 20 minutes from Augustus Village you can visit the beautiful and bustling town of Side, situated on a peninsula one kilometre long and four hundred metres wide. The name Side in the Anatolian language means “pomegranate”. Here you can indulge your hunger of times gone by, with the abundance of historic monuments, museums, the superb Side theatre where the annual festival of the area is held and the magnificent grandeur of Apollo’s Temple almost stretching into the arms of the sea. But Side has more to offer - a plethora of shops with colourful vendors and goods and cosy little restaurants you can relax and enjoy good local food and a harbour and beaches.
Aspendos: Here, among the ruins of Aspendos, you can find the best preserved ancient theatre in Turkey, built with a seating capacity of around 20,000 and one that is still in use today. During the summer months you can attend a concert, ballet or opera depending on the programme for the season. This is truly an opportunity not to miss. Aspendos also offers views of a once magnificent aqueduct, constructed in Roman times around the 1st or 2nd century A.D.
Other Places of Interest:
Antalya: Although Antalya is today a modern city there are still traces of old Turkey that are worth searching for. The Hidirlik tower stills stands and the Karatay Medresse an ancient castle overlooking the harbour with it's old houses nestled inside. If the region’s art and history is for you then a visit to the Antalya Museum is a must.
Manavgat waterfall: One of the best known waterfalls in Turkey is located on the Oymapinar dam road, 3 km from the town of Manavgat. This is a particularly lush area with three good sized rivers to providing water.
Duden and Kursunlu waterfall: The waterfall is on one of the tributaries of the Aksu river and nestling in the middle of a pine forest is exceptionally beautiful. The countryside around the falls provides a lovely picnic area and pleasure spot and is just 30 minutes from Augustus Village. Kursunlu offers the unique experience of being able to walk behind the cascade. Its claim to fame is that it was used in the television advertisement for Timotei shampoo.
Caves: About one third of Turkey is underlain by carbonate rocks. The intense rock stratum is spread almost all over Turkey. It is found particularly in the regions of the Taurus Mountain Range. In the town of Alanya lies the cave of Dalmatas, which contains spectacular stalactites and stalagmites and the moist atmosphere is said to relieve asthma and chest complaints.
Plus...Saklikent Ski Resort: There are few other places in the world where you can you play golf and sunbathe at the beach and then drive for one hour thirty minutes and ski.
