Colakli, Dalaman Coast. Turkey.
Nearest airport: Antalya – approx 1 hour by coach.
Colakli was originally a small village lying at the base of the Taurus Mountains, where the mountains meet the Mediterranean Sea.
This fabulous resort boasts a beautiful stretch of sandy beach, where sunbathers spend hours soaking up the sun, and sport enthusiasts take part in an array of watersports including jet-skiing, canoeing and wind surfing.
If you love to get away from it all and enjoy simply sitting back and taking in the views, Colakli is a prime location. Being only 12km from the historical town of Side, Colakli is perfectly situated as a base for numerous days out. Side itself is a picturesque harbour protruding out to sea. With ancient temples, Roman ruins and narrow streets lined with boutiques, Side offers a break from purely relaxing on the beach in Colakli.
If you plan on taking the kids, there are plentiful activities to keep them amused. Why not try a family day out horse riding through the mountains or get a thrill from one of two fantastic waterparks right in Colakli.
There are a few small restaurants and bars in Colakli, mainly serving local, traditional food. For a more diverse range of cuisine, Side is the place to go. Nightlife in Colakli is also very low-key, so neighbouring Side is a perfect evening destination if you fancy a night out.
Nearby lies the spectacular ‘designer’ golf resort of Belek. Visit the incredible beaches, shops and the majestic Aspendos Amphitheatre and become entranced by the size and grandeur of it. Dating back to 800BC, this amphitheatre is a remarkable preservation of ancient Roman history outside of Italy, and is still used today for shows such as the Opera and Ballet Festival.
While in Colakli you cannot miss an excursion to Cappadocia, a stunning gorge set inland in the Central Anatolian region of Turkey. This gorge has incredible rock formations forming underground cities, where the Christians settled attempting to escape from the Romans in the 2nd Century BC. Tunnel your way through ancient gateways, become mesmerised by the ‘fairy chimneys’ or even experience a hot air balloon ride over the valleys.
