The Mediterranean Coast region

The Turkish Riviera

The Turkish Mediterranean Coast is a fantastic location, one of the most desirable worldwide. Not only does it offer pure turquoise waters and beautiful sandy beaches, but it is also the home of very old traditions and ancient historical sites.

The resort is a short 10 minute drive from beautiful, well-tended beaches, where you can enjoy many water sports, including water and jet skiing, underwater diving, paragliding, sailing, among others.
Inland, you'll find beautiful nature reserves with natural flora, rivers and beautiful waterfalls.

On the other hand you might prefer to explore other activities such as fishing, caving, white water rafting, horse riding…the choice is endless and it's yours. Indeed with the beautiful Taurus Mountains so close by, this area offers a choice of summer and winter activities at the same time!

Lovers of history and culture will enjoy the ancient Roman and Greek sites of Perge, Aspendos, and Side -- all less than an hour's drive away. Many other ancient historical monuments and sites are available for day trips.

If you are a keen golfer, you are in the perfect spot! Belek now boasts eight championship golf courses, including the newly opened Nick Faldo course. The target is to build over 100 golf courses as Turkey aims to become Europe’s number one golfing centre. You will also be able to enjoy your golf at prices that will enchant you. Moreover, Augustus Village Resort management staff can book tee times and provide transport to and from the courses.
