Kosmar - Cheap Holidays to Greece and Turkey

It's like a journey back in time, arriving at yet another secluded bay - bright blue waters surrounded by towering pine-scented mountains, and a laid-back village basking in the Mediterranean sunshine, beside a long crescent of sand and shingle beach. You can picture Icmeler looking pretty much like this, before it began its rise to fame as a sophisticated tourist resort. For centuries past, Turunc could only be reached by sea, and 'tourists' meant the yachting crowd, mooring out in the bay for a swim before rowing ashore for a fresh fish lunch in a beachside lokanta. Tough at the top, isn't it, Nowadays the delights of this little village are more easily accessible, and tourism has moved up a gear, with a selection of restaurants, shops and even some watersports on the beach. But today's visitors don't come here looking for the high life and a party atmosphere. That's on offer in nearby Marmaris, whenever the fancy takes them. Turunc is a firm favourite with sun-seekers whose idea of a holiday is hiding the watch, and switching off the mobile, so they can concentrate on chilling out, and sampling the simple pleasures of life among friendly village folk, in a timelessly beautiful setting. Relax!
