Gumbet, Turkey
Please note the locations shown on this map are approximate.
To use a holiday brochure cliche, the Bodrum Peninsula has a holiday resort to suit everyone, from the bustling city of Bodrum to the peaceful sandy beaches of Bitez that are so ideal for paddling. Watersports enthusiasts have plenty to keep them occupied here, and there's plenty of history and rural charm if you want to experience the 'real' Turkey. Gumbet's coastal waters are warm and clear, ideal for families with young children. The resort used to be a sleepy little village, but that's in the past, as the resort is now nearly as busy as its big sister, Bodrum. It does however retain some charm of its own, together with the added benefit of a great beach with lots of sunbeds and umbrellas. Leading off the beach are many small bars that keep cool drinks flowing all day. The breeze in this bay makes Gumbet particularly attractive for windsurfers and boating enthusiasts.    Sightseeing & ActivitiesEven if you are not staying in Bodrum a visit to this busy resort is a wonderful day out. The Castle of St Peter with its amazing maritime museum is fascinating; alternatively stroll through the marina with its charming boutiques and elegant yachts. There is a fantastic selection of waterfront shops, and Bodrum's pedestrian shopping lanes will keep you busy during the day. All around the Bodrum peninsular there are wonderful opportunities for watersports. You can try your hand at water skiing, parasailing, dinghy sailing, windsurfing or perhaps the more sedate pastimes of canoeing or pedaloes. For more organised excursions experience a day out to Ephesus, one of the best-preserved archaeological sites in the world. Also worth a visit is Pamukkale, one of nature's phenomena where hot mineral waters flow down the mountain and have solidified to form snowy white pools. As you might expect, boat trips are widely available and you can even take your passport and take a trip to the nearby Greek island of Kos. Coach TransfersBodrum Airport to
