Altinkum Flights & Travel Guide

Turkey’s resorts have long been a popular destination spot for British travelers, but more recently U.S. travelers have jumped flights to Turkey for vacations in the resort towns. Turkey’s smaller and quieter resort town of Altinkum has seen a wave of tourists in recent years looking for a relaxing, easy-going beach vacation. There are no direct flights to Altinkum but travelers heading to this paradise town can fly into Turkey’s Bodrum airport and make their way to Altinkum. The resort’s main attraction is the beach, where visitors spend most of their days baking in the sun.  Altinkum is a resort devoted to leisure, but active travelers will find plenty to do by way of watersports before nightfall, when visitors lounge in laid-back restaurants and bars.

Altinkum Insider Information

• This is a newly built resort to cater for the popularity of Turkey’s southern coastline, with low rise apartments round hotels rather than high rise blocks.
• There is a soft sandy beach with a great range of watersports but it does get crowded in high season.
• Buy Turkish Delight – which is less sweet and more chewy than the confectionery varieties at home. 
• As you leave a shop or a stall, say goodbye in Turkish. The Turkish words are "gule gule" (pronounced goolay goolay) which is easy to remember and fun to say.
