Kemer Kemer is a seaside resort and district of Antalya Province on the Mediterranean coast of Turkey, 40 km (25 mil) west of the city of Antalya, on the Turkish Riviera. Kemer is on the Gulf of Antalya, 53 km (33 mi) of sea coast with the skirts of the western Taurus Mountains behind. The coast has the typical Mediterranean hot, dry weather and warm sea. Until the early 1980s this was a quiet rural district but today the town of Kemer and coastal villages in the district play a very important part in tourism in Turkey. Tourism in Kemer One of the major attractions of Kemer is its natural beauty; sea, mountains and pine forest combine in harmony. The shore from Beldibi to Tekirova consists of unspoilt beaches in bays of various sizes, mostly stony rather than sand. With easy transportation, good communication and other municipal services Kemer has a large proportion of the hotel bed capacity of the Antalya region, and is a comfortable and peaceful holiday coast with internationally accepted reputation, attracting large numbers of visitors from countries such as Germany, the Netherlands, and in recent years predominantly families from Russia.

  • Western Lycian Way – Group Guided
    Western Lycian Way – Group Guided Summary This Small Group Guided Itinerary cherry picks the best walks of the Western End of the Lycian Way and adds some stunning high mountain walks that will also give you the chance to meet and enjoy the company of the Nomadic Yörük people. We will walk on the coast, across grazing lands and through orchards and above the tree-line close to the snow- capped mountains (Ak Dağ) near Gömbe. This really is the best walking, history and culture that Western Lycia has to offer. The itinerary has a good deal of historical content and includes a boat trip over the sunken city of Kekova. We will also visit the three cities that at different times were the capital of the Lycian League. These are Xanthos the first capital, Patara the home of the Lycian Parliament building and Myra the bishopric of Saint Nicholas the source of much of the santa Claus legends. If nature is your “thing” then you will love the crystal blue waters where we can often see turtles in Kekova and Dalyan, the wetlands that are home to resident and migrating birds, the coast and coastal towns which host hundreds of storks and the rugged, mountainous terrain where eagles and buzzards soar. You will almost certainly find myriad lizards, the ubiquitous wild tortoises and occasional snakes. The wild flowers, particularly in spring are absolutely stunning. Turkey has over 9,000 species of flora of which 40% is endemic. If your idea of a great walking holiday is a good solid walking programme steeped in history, culture and nature, then you need look no further.

  • Muğla İli Risk Azaltma Strateji Planı” Çalışmalarına Başlanmıştır
    MUĞLA VALİLİĞİ İl Afet ve Acil Durum Müdürlüğü Muğl a İli Fethiye İlçesi Afet Tehlike Analizi MUĞLA İLİ FETHİYE İLÇESİ DOĞAL AFET TEHLİKELERİ 1. AMAÇ VE KAPSAM Muğla Valiliği İl Afet ve Acil Durum Müdürlüğü’nün 15.02.2012 tarih ve 159 sayılı Valilik Oluru ile “Muğla İli Risk Azaltma Strateji Planı” çalışmalarına başlanmıştır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Başbakanlık Afet ve Acil Durum Yönetim Başkanlığı koordinasyonunda hazırlanan Ulusal Deprem Stratejisi ve Eylem Planı 2012-2023 (UDSEP-2023) belgesinin B.1.1.2.maddesi kapsamında Muğla İlinin bölgesel (makro) ölçekte risk azaltma strateji planının ilk ayağı olarak Fethiye İlçesindeki doğal afet tehlike haritalarının hazırlanmasıdır. Fethiye ilçesinin 1. Dereceden deprem bölgesinde olması, 1957 yılında 7.1 büyüklüğünde can ve mal kayıplı depreme maruz kalmış olması, kentsel yerleşim alanının yapılaşmaya uygun olmayan tarım alanlarına kaymış olması, bu ilçenin afete karşı hazırlık çalışmalarındaki önemini ortaya koymaktadır (Ertunç ve diğ., 2006). Bunun yanı sıra son yıllarda özellikle kıyı bölgesindeki dolgu alanlarının da yapılaşmaya açılmış olmasının bölgenin afete maruz kalma riskinde önemli düzeyde artışlara neden olduğu düşünülmektedir.

    Turkey Turkey is a vast and varied country boasting incredible landscapes and natural wonders bordered by four different seas.

Istanbul is also gearing up to be European Capital of Culture 2010 .so; it has never been a better time to visit this magical city! Dakkak Holiday as a dominant out going tour operator in Jordan and a division of the tourism comprehensive destination management company Dakkak Group; witnesses a distinguished traffic of Jordanians who make tracks to this beautiful destination in summer mostly and the rest seasons of the year generally. Various suggested packages and lots of tailor made plans are designed every season to Istanbul, Bodrum, Antalya , Marmaris and else. Turkish coffee or Turk kahvesi is the perfect way to finish off a good meal. When ordering you specify whether you want it sade (plain), orta (with some sugar) or sekerli (very sweet) and it is brewed with the specified amount of sugar mixed in with the coffee granules. It is served in small cups. It is quite an art to know-when to stop drinking as one sip too many and you will end up with a mouthful of the sludgy residue which falls to the bottom of the cup. Even this has its uses, however, as you may find a local willing to tell your fortune from it - cover your cup with the saucer, wait until it becomes cold when you will be asked to turn it upside down, turn it around several times and then your destiny will be divined from the shapes which are formed.

Dolayısıyla, yavaş şehir üyesi olan ancak, artan bilinirliğiyle özellikle yaz aylarında hiç de yavaş bir şehir olarak kalmayan Akyaka’da maruz kaldıkları Aşırı Turizm karşısında turizm paydaşlarının durumu nasıl karşıladıklarının anlaşılması bu çalışmanın amacını oluşturmaktadır. Bu amaçla, nitel veri toplama yöntemi kullanılarak Akyaka’daki turizm paydaşlarıyla görüşmeler yapılmıştır. Yapılan görüşmeler, Bilinirlik, Yavaş Şehir’in Etkileri, Aşırı Turizmin Etkileri ve Öneriler olmak üzere 4 kategoride toplanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler Akyaka’da aşırı turizmin yaşandığını ve sürdürülebilir turizm anlayışına uygun olmayan etkilerin olduğunu göstermektedir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Aşırı Turizm, Yavaş Şehir, Destinasyon, Akyaka. Abstract Although Akyaka, with its magnificent nature in the heart of Muğla, is a Slow City, the increase in the popularity of the region and the hosting various sports/touristic activities caused a serious increase in the number of tourists and brought in overtourism to Akyaka.

  • Muğla Dosyasi
    MUĞLA DOSYASI Sunay ÜNLÜ YÜCEL, TÜRSAB ARGE DEPARTMANI, EYLÜL 2008 Muğla’nın Düal Kaderi: Deniz ve Toprak Bir yanda hareketli, ışıltılı, insanın içini kıpır kıpır eden bir yaşam, diğer yanda, dingin ve huzur veren bir doğa... Üstelik çok yakın mesafelerde… Gündüzleri Ege’nin turkuaz renkli sularında enginlere kulaç atarken, akşamları dilediğiniz çeşitlilikte eğlence alternatifleri sunar Muğla. Muğla’nın düal kaderi deniz ve topraktır. Kıyılarında bu ikisi birbirini sımsıkı kucaklar. Buradaki sayısız körfez, koy ve bükler Muğla’ya tekneleriyle gelen deniz sevdalılarını ağırlar. Bodrum’undan, Marmaris’ine, Fethiye’sinden Datça’sı ve Milas’ına her bir beldesinin kendine has rengi ve tadı vardır. Bodrum doğal güzellikleri olduğu kadar canlı gece yaşamı ile ön plana çıkarken, Fethiye ailelerin ve 3. yaş turistlerin aradığı sakinliği sunabiliyor. Ancak, Fethiye aynı zamanda yamaç paraşütü, kanyoning, yayla turizmi gibi doğa sporları etkinliklerinde de ön plana çıkıyor. Marmaris ise yat turizminde ismini duyuran en önemli destinasyonumuz olma yolunda ilerliyor. Uluslararası Marmaris Denizcilik ve Bahar Festivali gibi etkinlikler bu ilçenin yatçılık ve deniz turizminde adını duyuruyor. Muğla’nın en önemli özelliklerinden birisi de Türkiye’nin bu gün en bilinen markaları arsında en geç gelişenidir. Bu nedenle bölgedeki olağanüstü doğal güzellikler ve tarihi varlıklar büyük oranda korunabilmiştir. Genç Bir Kent Çeşitli araştırma kaynaklarında Muğla’nın oldukça yeni bir kent olduğu ve ilk isminin Mobella olduğu söylenir. Antik çağlarda Karya olarak bilinen Muğla, kısmen ve kısa dönemler halinde Mısır , Asur ve Đskit işgallerinin, zamanla da özellikle kıyılarda Helen kolonizasyon hareketinin egemenliği altında kalmıştır. M.Ö. 334 yılında Büyük Đskender Anadolu’ya geçtiğinde Karya’yı da ele geçirir. Đskender’den sonra bölge oldukça karmaşık ve Sandras Dağı çalkantılı bir döneme girer.
