Getting Around |
 |
Even though
Akyaka is a wonderful place to just sit and
do nothing, on occasions the urge will hit
you to go somewhere. There are many places
within relatively easy reach of Akyaka, of
architectural, historical, and geological
interest... |

Ephesus |
 |
Ephesus is the
most famous, the most complete, and, on the
downside, probably the most crowded ancient
site in Turkey. Nevertheless, it really is a
‘must see’ – if not on your first visit to
Turkey, then certainly at some point. |

Saklikent Gorge |
 |
Saklikent
gorge is a dramatic natural feature – a deep
narrow gorge some, running 18 kilometres
back through the mountains. And whilst it is
perfectly safe, it has the feel of exploring
about it, so kids love it (well, boys do
anyway!) |

Stratonikeia |
 |
If you wish to
visit Stratonikeia, then you are almost
certainly on your own – there are no
organised tours. Against that, it is
relatively close to Akyaka, and well worth a
visit – albeit a relatively short one
compared to some of the other sites. |

The Dalyan Delta
and Kaunos |
 |
This is the
nearest ‘major’ trip from Akyaka, being only
about an hour away. The prime sites here are
the delta itself, with the famous Carian
rock tombs (which rather put Akyaka’s to
shame!), the ancient city of Kaunos, the mud
baths and sulphur springs, the massive
freshwater lake at Koycegiz, and the famous
Iztuzu (Turtle) beach. |
