Türkbükü is a Turkish town on the Turkish Riviera in Muğla Province on the opposite side of the Bodrum peninsula from the town of Bodrum. Türkbükü has a well protected harbor ringed with high hills containing a number of hotels and holiday villas. The town is a favorite of Turks (particularly those of the upper-class) and less well visited by Western European tourists as compared to Bodrum.
There are no broad sandy beaches, but there is a semi-circular boardwalk dense with shops, restaurants, bars and docks for sunbathing in the day and dining in the evening. The protected harbor is a refuge for yachts and allows for swimming in swimming pool like conditions in the morning before the afternoon breeze comes in. In the high tourist season, Turkish pop-stars, models and professional athletes can be sighted at the posh bars and restaurants or strolling along the board walk.
Türkbükü is far off vacation spot similar to the French Riviera. It has been often labeled as the St.-Tropez of Turkey[1]
