The Bay of Turunc is one of the most beautiful along the coast of
the Bozburun Peninsula.  The mountains are covered with pine trees whose slopes meet the calm crystal blue waters of the Aegean Sea
and are a haven for wildlife. 

The natural pine honey from this area is one of the many local products of this bountiful landscape. It has been populated for many thousands
of years and evidence of this still remains visible today. The ruins of Amos, for example are just a short walk away from Turunc. Many
more archeological sites still exist along what was formerly known as
The Loryma Peninsula.

The village of Turunc is a quiet fishing village and a picture perfect holiday location providing a haven of peace and tranquility, and welcomes tourists during the long summer season from April to October. 
Here you will be able to bathe in the clean, clear waters of the blue flagged beach.  Turunc is rightly proud of this prestigious honor, as it is only awarded to those who have the cleanest beaches and
who promote environmental awareness within the local community.

Turunc attracts holidaymakers from all over Europe and is popular with Turkish tourists.  There are sufficient bars, shops and restaurants to cater for most tastes. The shops offer the best prices for leather goods and jewellery anywhere in Turkey. The restaurants are renowned for their cuisine
varying from traditional Turkish to contemporary European style menus. There is a traditional local
market held every Monday in Turunc were you can enjoy bartering for your goods. The bright lights
of Marmais and Icmeler are merely a dolmus ride away, which is the local transport in Turunc, or just
a short boat ride away from the harbor.

The warm climate here enables you to swim in the sea for seven months of the year.  Even in the
winter months the temperature rarely falls below 15 degrees.  During the summer there is usually
a cooling breeze coming down from the mountains.

The friendliness, the local hospitality of the villagers and the beautiful surroundings of Turunc make it
the perfect destination for a peaceful and relaxing family holiday.
