The Turquoise Coast/Lycia region
The Bodrum Peninsula boasts a perfect Mediterranean climate with low humidity. The long, extended summer runs between May and October with reliable weather and rain virtually unheard of. Summer temperatures range from the mid 20°Cs at the beginning and end of the season, up to the mid 30°Cs in the hottest months of July and August. Winters tend to be mild with some sun, and occasional showers and it is not unusual to be able to swim in the sea even in November.
Lycian and Roman ruins can be found throughout the region and include sites such as Ephesus, Didyma and the beautiful rock tombs at Dalyan. Natural wonders such as Pumukkale and the mud baths and hot springs at Dalyan can also be experienced.
Bodrum / Yalikavak area
All your self catering needs can be satisfied within Gokcebel, but a short bus or taxi ride will take you to Yalikavak with its harbour, market, new Marina (festivals, concerts and films during the main holiday season), shops, cafes, bistro and seafront gardens. The small town of Yalikavak still supports a thriving fishing industry and has numerous restaurants lining the harbour and beaches. The small picturesque harbour is surrounded by some excellent restaurants and bars, and while there is the occasional disco bar, the general atmosphere is quiet, unhurried and relaxed. There are many shops in the traffic free centre, and every week the town hosts a fruit, vegetable and clothing market.
Just beyond the harbour is located the beach, and other beaches are accessible by buses from the bus station. Local buses and taxis run very frequently making Bodrum and the rest of this peninsular’s varied historic and tourist sites accessible within 30 minutes - the ideal place to relax and unwind. Bodrum is a shoppers paradise and has a vibrant nightlife with an incredible number of bars, discos and clubs. Bodrum castle is deffinitely worth a visit, and hosts many festivals, concerts and art displays. There is a water park on the outskirts of Bodrum and ferries can be taken to the island of Kos from Bodrum harbour. Boat trips and outings to Dalyan, Ephesus, Bodrum and other places of interest can be organised by local travel agents who will pick you up from near the apartment. Cars can also be hired in Yalikavak which will allow you to explore the many bays and smaller villages. A useful link for information regarding the area of Yalikavak is www.yalikavak.co.uk.
