About Turkey
Turkey proudly sits astride two continents: a position that has given rise to a culture that reflects both East and West. It is a country where European aspirations sit comfortably alongside Asian traditions and the volatile atmosphere of the Middle East morphs seamlessly into the relaxed outlook of the Mediterranean world.
About the Turkish Riviera
Located on the beautiful Mediterranean coast, The Antalya region of Turkey is one of the fastest growing holiday and golfing destinations in Europe.
Known as the Turkish Riviera, it is a year round holiday destination with well over 300 days of sunshine per year. It does not only appeal to sun worshippers but also to people who enjoy activity holidays.
There are already 8 International class golf courses situated at Belek and many more are under construction or planned over the next 5 years in the area. It is the intention of the Turkish Government to make this area the number one destination in Europe for golfers and they are well on the way to achieving this goal.
The courses are set up to ensure a challenging round for both high and low handicappers alike. Fairways are carved through a forest of eucalyptus and pine trees and with the back-drop of the snow capped Taurus Mountains even a poor scorecard will not curtail your enjoyment.
The nearby Taurus Mountains offer excellent skiing in winter at a fraction of the costs of the more established ski resorts in Europe.
In the Koprulu Canyon National Park, which is only 30 minutes away from the coast, there is the opportunity to go white water rafting, trout fishing or a choice of many varied walks through the canyon offering spectacular scenery.
