Stratonikeia Antik Kenti

Reviewed By jordan102 - Dudley, United Kingdom

This place is amazing . Excavations are still in process but the mosque was beautiful inside. There are a few families live still there among the ruins and make jewellery and bottled fruit. The fruit was just amazing growing on the trees the pomegranate were huge. We had pancakes freshly made and they were lovely. The site was really good and the tour guide explained everything to us our children 5,7 and 15 really enjoyed it. A great few hours were spent there but we didn't realise how hot it was and very little cover and a couple of us had sun stroke, but overall a great place to visit.

Akbuk Cove

Reviewed By BoRaXiN72 - Istanbul, Turkey

I came to this place in the year 1996 the first time for fishing purposes from Akyaka. It was truly beautiful, a real paradise. It was being strictly protected by the government. Years later it was zoned for construction and it started to get ruined. Now the beach is open for vehicle traffic. Vehciles pass very close to the sunbeds and people get dirty by dust etc. This place was a real paradise but now all I can say is I am thankful for small blessings. You should go there and see for yourself though. It is still beautiful.

Hired a quad bike a drove to this beatiful bay and beach, great drive but if you worry about height and steep roads untarmaced then you can visit by boat through Kanous tours in Dalyan. Very secluded and quiet, beautiful bay, beds are 25tl each for the day (expensive compared with Turtle beach7.5tl) but about £4 so don't bulk at the price, you get nice cushions for that as well. Single Resaurant on beach, great food and drink at slightly higher than the average, but worth it for the special place it is, I hope this place never changes and gets spoilt!
