A short 10 minute ride by rental car, community bus, or bicycle takes you to the very popular resort town of Altinkum. There you will find an expansive public beach, a large selection of good restaurants, a healthy economy with many international shops, and a vivacious nightlife enjoyed by the European and Turkish summer population.

Nearby is the extraordinarily important archaeological site of Didim (Didmya) with an impressive and well preserved ruin of a Greek temple to Apollo. From Altinkum day trips can be easily made by ferry, bus, or car to Ephesus, Bodrum, and other popular sites. The location of the home provides a perfect "base" for exploring the Turkish Riviera.
