The Datça peninsula, stretching the borders of Turkey between the Aegean and the Mediterranean seas, looks proudly out over a myriad of Greek islands, including Kos and Symi.

It’s hardly surprising that the nine picturesque villages on Datça have become a sight not to be missed by visitors to the Aegean. Over and above its welcoming little ports and coves, Datça enjoys a lush unspoilt countryside and wild shoreline with golden sandy beaches lapped by limpid azure waters. Datça, in complete contrast to its more famous and busier neighbours, Marmaris and Bodrum, offers a calm tranquillity and almost intimate hospitality that delight visitors from all over the world.
