Overseas Property

Welcome to Altinkum - Turkey a country rich in history and being the home of three great empires. The Greek, Roman and Ottoman Empires, all leaving their historical and cultural mark on the country. The climate is all you would expect from a North Mediterranean Country, which makes it a very popular destination for homebuyers and holiday makers. This beautiful holiday resort is situated in the Southern Aegean

It's just 1h15 minutes away from the nearest airport, 1 hour from Kusadasi, 2 hours from Bodrum and 2hours away from Izmir which is the third largest city of Turkey.

Altinkum is becoming increasingly popular as a tourist attraction, but unlike other resorts like Bodrum and Kusadasi. Altinkum is small and quiet, making it perfect for families with young children and those seeking a relaxed, easy-going beach holiday. The resort town's main attraction are its three long sandy beaches, that stretch from the small harbour at one end of a gently shelving bay to a rocky cliff at the other end. Name Altinkum means 'golden sands'

Those who are more energetic can try their hand at windsurfing, jet-skiing, pedaloes, a banana boat ride or perhaps a scuba diving lesson: all these activities and more are available on the beaches. In this resort people are devoted to leisure and pleasure, lazy days on the beach, perhaps indulging in some watersports, are the order of the day, while night time is spent trying out the laid back restaurants and bars.

Those with a yen for sightseeing will find Altinkum perfectly placed to visit two major ancient sites, the Temple of Apollo at Didyama and the vast Roman ruins at Ephesus.

Apart from all these features of Altinkum, this holiday resort has also been recommended by World Health Council due to its climate, sand and low rate of humidity along with six months of non-stop sunshine (May - October) with not one drop of rain. Altinkum is also a great place to live in for those suffering from asthma. No wonder the old Greeks and Romans liked it so much here as well. How is the winter then, people insist and have to answer, "here is no winter".

Frost and snow never touches the Aegean. And the Turkish word for autumn explains it the best: »Sonbahar« (second spring).
