Alacati, Turkey's St Tropez

 Like St Tropez, an overgrown fishing village on the sun-blessed Aegean

 Altinkum beach. Like Plage Pampelonne yet with less nudity and more raki
Alaçati uniform: big hat, sandals, shabby chic shades and sun dress
 Endless beach clubs of Altinkum
 Streets of experimental seafood restaurants in Aegean white and blue


Bodrum Peninsula's sun-kissed coast road

 Map of the Bodrum Peninsula's looping coast road
 The ritzy resort of Turkbuku
 The sunken Roman bridge to the island at Gumusluk

 Golden sands of Gundogan, where Turkey's parliament retires to each June
Crystal clear seas of Bodrum Peninsula
