The area around Dalaman has been dubbed the Turquoise Coast thanks to its pristine Mediterranean waters. A smorgasbord of resorts has sprung up along its shores, from bustling favourite Marmaris to new kid on the block Sarigerme. Take a look around this remarkable region, and you won’t be disappointed.
The entire coast is strung with beautiful beaches, from sun bed-strewn stretches of sand to tucked-away coves only accessible by boat. It’s also home to the Blue Lagoon – a strong contender for the title of world’s best beach. Wherever you wander, you’ll find the right spot for you.
Scattered among the modern resorts are the remains of awe-inspiring ancient civilisations – especially those of the Romans and the Lycians, who were the area’s original inhabitants. Plus the mountains that act as the mighty backdrop the coast are home to hosts of traditional hamlets just waiting to be explored.
As a big-time favourite, Marmaris has some of the most beautiful beaches on the Mediterranean coast and a pumping nightlife scene to boot.
Olu Deniz is famed for its blue lagoon nestling behind the end of a beach, backed by a mesmerising mountain range.
Icmeler may be lively, but it’s got an old village within it and nature close by.
A hip and happening hotspot, Hisaronu is one of the most exciting towns in the area. Perched on a mountain plateau, it overlooks pine-studded mountains and rolling hills.
Set around a coast of soft sands and inviting blue waters, Calis is a suntrap.
In the sleepy, riverside resort of Dalyan, things are pretty simple and relaxed. But just out of town, adventure is definitely on the cards.
Popular Fethiye is a town with plenty to talk about. Stretching along the coast with a treasure trove of fabulous views, historical old centres and a shining marina.
Enjoy a splash of luxury at Göcek marina. Sitting pretty near Fethiye, this resort’s got a distinctly Mediterranean flavour, so it’s no wonder famous faces have lived here.
Boat trips, bathing platforms and bougainvillea-splashed streets – that’s Kalkan for you.
Wonderfully whitewashed and oh-so pretty, the seaside town of Kas is a true Turkish treasure.
Go in search of this small village in south-west Turkey and you won’t be disappointed.
Get among the daily local beat as you traipse around markets selling fresh produce and glittering gifts.
The Blue Lagoon in Olu Deniz is one of Turkey’s most photographed tourist attractions, so it’s a prize pick. Bordered by warm Mediterranean waters and pretty promenades, you’ll get to laze for as long as you like in Dalaman. Over in Sarigerme and Marmaris, you’ll find some sun-blessed spots as well.

The region’s so peppered with historical sites that you’ll be spoilt for choice. Highlights include the ruins of Ancient Rome’s former second-largest city, and the fascinating if slightly eerie tombs carved into the cliffs beneath Fethiye. It’s a place of cultural leftovers – not to mention pretty postcard scenes!
