Gulluk

Just around the corner from Rose Garden is Gulluk town centre where you are able to wander around its quaint little shops. You will also find a local bank, cash machines and car/moped hire should you need them. There is a weekly market (Thursday) here and two excellent supermarkets that will provide you with all your supplies. There are a number of bakeries where you can purchase fresh bread, traditional Turkish savories and pastries such as Baklava.

There are a number of restaurants where you can sample a traditional Turkish dish, whether it is locally caught fish or traditional meat dishes. These can be eaten either in the cafe or take it away.

The Rose Garden resort is only 60 meters from the sea, where you can hop on a boat for the day and lap up the sun or take a dip in the beautiful Aegean sea. Gulluk has its own beach and there are others to choose from in this area. You can also take a ferry to Bodrum from Gulluk harbor.

You can see the local fishermen bring in their catch and if you like fish there is no better place to experience the taste of fresh fish dishes than Gulluk's harbor-front restaurants. There is a fish market in Gulluk so you can buy your own and cook it back in the apartment.

By day this gorgeous little fishing village is quietly energetic with experiences for both families and couples alike. I cannot stress enough just how un spoilt Gulluk is, in the way in which the Turkish people live their everyday lives.

By night you can experience the excellent local restaurants overlooking Gulluk harbor and the whole wide bay with the beautiful Aegean Sea. They serve every type of food and the quality is excellent. You can have a stroll along the promenade, stop off and have a few drinks, or during the summer months venture out on an evening cruise on one of the boats situated only minutes from your apartment. A number of restaurants provide entertainment and dancing in the evening.

Wherever you go the local Turkish people are very friendly and helpful. To find out more about the local area please visit www.gulluk.net.
