BELEK

Belek is set on a beautiful long stretch of beach of coarse golden sand that has been awarded a Blue Flag showing the area has achieved the highest quality in water, facilities, safety, environmental education and management.   The area has been developed to provide the best in accommodation and facilities whilst preserving the unique natural environment and ecological balance. 

The sandy beach is one of the few in Turkey where the rare Loggerhead (Caretta caretta) turtles lay their eggs.  Hundreds of different plant species make the area a paradise for birds including the Tyto Alba, a hooded barn owl.
