WHY TURKEY?
Lying at a strategic meeting point of Europe and Asia, Turkey offers the traveller a tantalising blend of the exotic and the familiar. With its extraordinarily rich mixture of archaeology, history, culture , fine beaches and magnificent scenery, Turkey is a great setting to enjoy all kinds of holidays. And if you're considering medical or dental treatment you need look no further than Turkey.
Our dentist surgery is situated at the heart of the bustling town of Fethiye. Once the Lycian settlement of Telmessos, Fethiye is a lively port and market town where Turkish life and tourism exist side by side. Along the pretty waterfront you can watch the traditional wooden gullets, motor launches and fishing boats.
At the nearby Calis Beach all manner of water-sports are available. In the old port area 'paspatur' sell everything from aromatic herbs to 'designer' clothes, nomadic rugs and hand-crafted jewellery. The famous rock tomb of King Amyntas is visited by many every year.
From Fethiye it is a 10 minute drive (by local bus) to the resort of Hisaronu. Situated on a high plateau 4km from the coast and surrounded by stunning mountains, the once sleepy villages of Hisaronu and Ovacik have combined to create a lively resort which has a distinctly British atmosphere. The nearest beaches are the famous lagoon of Oludeniz or the pebble and sand beach of Belcekiz. A dolmus leaves every five or ten minutes.
The village is full of bars, restaurants and shops. This is certainly the place to haggle for any imitation designer gear. The cool mountain air can be quite a relief after a day in the sun and there is plenty to do in the evening.
A further 5 minute drive will take you to Oludeniz which is situated on Turkey`s south-west coast, with it`s pristine white beaches and amazingly blue waters is one of the finest beaches in the world. Known as "the Turquoise Coast", it`s the ideal holiday destination. Be it diving, rafting, paragliding or simply walking and sunbathing lazily on the beach, Oludeniz has it all!
