One of The trips we did last year was to a little town on the Gokova Bay called Akyaka.
It was only an hour from Icmeler and on the way we stopped at a couple of rock tombs from days gone by
Having stood for thousands of years, through mans obsession to go faster and to get to places quicker by the building of a new road and bridges, these tombs in just 9 short months are now having to be supported by metal poles and wooden nogs.

Arriving in Akyaka was as I imagined it, a beautifull little village with this magnificent backdrop of mountains.
Having an harbour area and the Azmac river running into the bay over which river is a rustic wooden bridge,this has got to be a photographers paradise.
Fish restaurents lined the pretty promenade and one step and you were on to the beach area, were sunbeds and brollies were in abundence.
2 beds and 1 brolly 4ytl.
The beach shelved gently into the sea and you could walk out 150mtrs before having to swim,this was great for Andre and he loved jumping and diving into the waves.
We left Akyaka at 3.30 arriving Icmeler 4.30,oh I wish we had that beach and sea at Icmeler.
Then they havent got any "3 Bells" "Korsan" "Majestic Boys" etc, or do they actualy desire them? I think not,this is a resort for those who like peace and tranquility and that is what reigns in this Turkish resort.

Nice one Gene, saved me a job there 
It would spoil Akyaka if they ever put boom boom music bars, esp along the front part, as Gene says, its a haven of peace and tranquility.
I can't wait to go back there this year, as I want to explore more

I know exactly what you mean, it's a nice place, the beach gets very busy, it is a very Turkish orientated resort meaning it is mainly Turkish tourists rather than foreign ones which adds to the interest to me.
All in all a great place, we plan to have a drive up there in summer
