Sweeping south and east from chic, Aegean-set Bodrum to the beachfront Mediterranean resorts of Antalya and Alanya, Turkey’s gorgeous Turquoise Coast has something for everyone. Think secluded coves reachable only by boat, great strands of white sand where loggerhead turtles lay their eggs, rocky headlands, dense pine-forested hillsides and an ever-present backdrop of soaring limestone peaks. Whether for pool-lounging and sea swimming, snorkelling, scuba diving, windsurfing or a round or three of golf, this beautiful southwest corner is tailor-made for the perfect beach holiday, so here’s our pick of the very best beach hotels in Turkey.
