Places to visit

When it comes to deciding what places to see, it depends on how you prefer to spend your time. If you're into beaches, Turkey's Turquoise Coast is famed for its golden sands, clean and clear waters and stunning sea views.

One of the most famous beaches in the area is the Ölüdeniz beach, which is also where you'll find the world-renowned Blue Lagoon. Dip your toes in and melt into warm waters surrounded by powdery white sand. If you've got time, the Blue Lagoon makes the perfect snorkelling spot and you're sure to discover a bunch of unique marine life beneath the water's surface.

Take a day trip to the abandoned village of Kayaköy, which is just 10 minutes from Hisaronu. Step into the UNESCO World Heritage Site and start exploring the old stone buildings of a bygone era. You can even go inside the crumbling homes and see the beautiful way the original dwellers decorated their houses. You can also head over to the nearby 'new village' for a cup of coffee and a bite to eat in the café.

Things to do

If you're on holiday with the kids, bring them to the Water World Waterpark in Ölüdeniz which is just a short drive from Hisaronu. You'll find a great selection of slides and attractions here, making it one of the best places to visit for families.

With its location amongst mountains and vast countryside, Hisarönü is perfect for outdoor enthusiasts. Thrill seekers will love paragliding from great heights and gliding over ancient cities and ruins as they explore the region by air. If you'd rather keep your feet firmly on the ground, you can rent a bike or go hiking in the hills.

Attractions

There are lots of great Hisaronu attractions to enjoy and one of the best is right in the heart of the village. Dining and shopping in the main street is a fun way to pass the time and unwind after a busy day of sightseeing. Try the local cuisine in an outdoor seated restaurant and shop for handmade jewellery, clothes and unique pottery items in the quirky shops that line the streets.

If you're in the mood for adventure, hop in a raft or kayak and glide along the Dalyan River. Or, take a boat ride to Gemiler Island, where you can spend the day uncovering old churches and discovering the original tomb of Saint Nicholas.
