Maybe you heard a lot about Istanbul, or about Cappadocia, those famous touristic destinations in Turkey. But most people don’t realize that they could be missing out on Turkey’s stunning coast. It is the same landscape as Greece’s coast, but so much more affordable during summer, from currency to food and accommodation.
I had no idea how much I could love Turkey’s coast. It is the most incredible combination of rocky hills with 50 shades of blue waters. From different points you can see impressive landscapes of the whole coast from up a hill. You have also diverse types of activities, from historical places, to nature trekking.
I went to Turkey for tourism with a friend, but we had long holidays. We spent about 10 days only at the coast. We started in Izmir, went down to Ephesus and Kuşadası, then Marmaris, Dalyan, and Fethiye. Last, we decided to adventure ourselves doing a short part of the Lycian Way (long trekking that can take up to 29 days around the Coast of Turkey – they have all the trails mapped and you can choose any part of the way to hike).
