Altinkum means 'Golden Sands' and with its beautiful beaches which gently shelve into the inviting turquoise blue Aegean, you will know where it gets its name from. The beaches are ideal for children and non-swimmers as the waters are shallow and clear. There are plenty of water sports, pedalos, banana boat rides and donut rides all at a reasonable price. There are numerous boat trips you can take from the small harbour that runs along the beach front. You can even arrange diving courses and fishing tours. You don’t even have to leave your sun lounger to get refreshments, there are plenty of people who will serve you a soft cold drink, at the 'Main Beach'

Altinkum in spite of its many foreign, mostly British residents, who have taken advantage of the cheap property prices and fantastic climate and made their home here, also remains a fundamentally Turkish resort and it is a popular holiday destination for Turks from all over Turkey. Altinkum is a rapidly growing resort and offers many opportunities for investment.
