BODRUM / YALIKAVAK bodrumpropertyforsale.co.uk
Yalikavak is packed full of traditional charm yet lies only a 20 minute drive away from the centre of Bodrum town for those after a quieter alternative. As you drive towards Yalikavak you'll catch sight various pretty bays along the way including Tilkicik, Pasa and Yalikavak's own picturesque coast. Rows of windmills are dotted throughout the countryside adding to the appeal. Local life here is centred on the harbour, where you'll find impressive yachts moored up alongside simple fishing boats laden down with their latest catch. Of course there are also plenty of local restaurants specialising in fish and seafood dishes lined up by the harbour Side, as well as a great selection of Turkish dishes to choose from. Other local attractions include an interesting little art gallery showing the work of various local artists, plus there's a weekly market selling fresh produce and fashion. For further retail opportunities there are a few small shops you can stroll around where you're certain to find a couple of good souvenirs of your holiday. When you just want time to relax you can take it easy by stretching out on the beach.
You'll find the beach a particularly picturesque place to be when the sun goes down, as this area is known for having really spectacular sunsets. Once the sun has disappeared below the horizon there are a couple bars you can visit but don't expect a thriving nightlife, you'll have to visit Bodrum town for that.

BODRUM TORBA bodrumpropertyforsale.co.uk
With holidays in Torba, you get the best of both worlds – a slice of quiet Turkish village life and the option of lively, fun-filled Turkey on the Side. It's the perfect balance for anyone wanting to mix lazy days with memorable sightseeing and shopping.
Nestled around a beautiful bay on the northern shores of the Bodrum peninsula, Torba is everything you'd dream a Turkish fishing hamlet could be. Here, wooded slopes sweep down to clusters of whitewashed dwellings, fish restaurants and a boat-speckled jetty, as well as a small sand-pebble beach kissed by bright blue waters. Cocooned along the coast, you'll find more tiny beaches and untouched villages to enjoy. Plus if you fancy a spot of history-hunting during your Torba holiday, mooch around the old monasteries, ruins and age-old tombs tucked in the hills. And when you hanker after more activity, the treasure trove of shops and sights that is Bodrum and the party town of Gumbet are both short taxi or bus hops away.
