Map & location
Altinkum, Bodrum Area, Turkey
Altinkum literally means “golden sands” – and Duja Didim makes the most of them. The resort spills down gentle terraces to its beachfront, where clear, shallow waters are ideal for paddling and watersports.
You’re around 500m from local shops, bars and restaurants, while Altinkum’s main resort centre, with its trio of beaches, harbour and lively evening scene, is approximately 3.5km away. This stretch of the Turkish Aegean also puts you within reach of major historical sites, including the Temple of Apollo at Didyma and, on a longer day trip, the ruins of Ephesus.
- Approx. transfer time from airport 2 hours (from Bodrum BJV)
