Akbuk in Turkish means “White Bay”

Akbuk is one of the rising stars of Turkey.  Set among protected pine forests and olive trees, this spectacular white bay with its small marina, its many smaller bays and coves, beautiful unspoilt clean beaches is, as yet, untouched by mass tourism.  The sea at Akbuk is a constantly changing colour from the most spectacular aqua for which Turkey is renowned to a beautiful deep blue.

Akbuk has an already excellent infrastructure of roads, a small harbour, ancient Greek church which has now been restored to museum status, excellent restaurants and bars on the promenade and a mini marina.   With its selection of 4 and 5 star hotels, Akbuk is a gem of a location still waiting to be fully discovered.  The French discovered Akbuk many years ago and there has been a French Holiday Village in existence ever since.  All along the bay the area is developing with something to suit all tastes. 

Akbuk was, until a couple of years ago, a holiday resort for Turkish families from the cities.  Many of the older holiday homes are now being sold and modernized, changing the face of Akbuk.  However, this beautiful small township has limited the development allowed in their area, hoping to lose none of the original charm and beauty of their spectacular white bay.

The Akbuk area is also renowned for its extremely high oxygen levels and low humidity, making it an ideal location for people who suffer from asthmatic problems.

Akbuk’s clean sparkling bay and delightful pure air makes this an ideal location for those seeking a delightful holiday home or a retirement apartment. 

Some of the plans for the future of Akbuk are:

1. A new road being built from Bodrum airport to Akbuk should bring the trip from the airport down to 30 minutes. 
2. Numerous 5 star resorts are being developed in and around Akbuk.
3. A golf course is planned for the area and other is being created 20 minutes away in Altinkum. 

So much is going on in Akbuk we believe it will be one of the best locations in Turkey to purchase a holiday home.  The area is being developed slowly with care and consideration of the infrastructure.

Akbuk is positioned between the two airports of Bodrum and İzmir with flights available from all major holiday companies and Cyprus Turkish Airlines all year round.
