This
picturesque resort is one of the hidden gems of Turkey,
located on the south west coast of the Aegean. The lively
resort of Altinkum is approximately 19km from Akbuk,
Kusadasi 65km and Bodrum 70km. Akbük is the quieter
alternative to the busier holiday resorts and is still
relatively unrecognized throughout the tourist industry. The
perfect location set around a beautiful bay surrounded by
protected forests and olive groves. Akbuk became a township
in 1991 and is developing according to plan, future
developments include a golf course and a direct road leading
to Bodrum airport. Most of the infrastructure is now
complete including new roads, clean beaches and pedestrian
walkways. No major construction work is allowed between the
months of May - October, and no buildings are to be built
any higher than 2 ½ storeys. These regulations are strictly
enforced by the town Mayor and local council. Akbuk is also
said to have the highest oxygen ratio and lowest humidity
rate in Turkey. This would make Akbuk the perfect location
for buying property for people suffering from health
problems such as asthma. Akbuk is an up and coming resort
with something to suit everyone. The sea and mountain views
surrounding Akbuk are breathtaking and the sea breezes and
soft sandy beaches are perfect for a hot summer’s day.
Combined with the local cuisine available and the never
failing hospitality from the locals, Akbuk will leave a
lasting impression on those who visit.
