Situated at the mouth
of the Gulf of Gokova, surrounded by pine forests
and facing a pristine sparkling blue sea. Yaliciftlik
remains in the 'known to the initiated' category.

That is perhaps the reason why several top class
hotels and holiday villages have established themselves
in the area: to host their guests in unspoilt,
tranquil surroundings.

Their care to preserve
nature while building and operating their facilities
is praiseworthy.
The long lovely beach is uncrowded, the few seaside
restaurants serve good inexpensive food, the countryside
retains its rustic charm (after all, Yaliciftlik
means 'a farm by the sea') and the forested mountains
are perfect for long treks in the shade of tall
trees. Boat trips can be made to even more secluded
spots by day or to the entertainment of Bodrum
by night.

To these holiday activities may be added
to exploration of ancient Legegian and Carian
sites as vestiges of the cities of Syangela and
Theangela lie in this very region. All of the
above contributes to make Yaliciftlik an excellent
choice for a relaxing, rewarding holiday.
