TRAVEL writer Ben O'Driscoll recently visited Dalaman - here's what he thought.
We had long heard good things about Turkey but only just found out for ourselves what a great destination it is for a family holiday.
It has everything: Golden beaches, friendly people, hot weather, excellent food and unbeatable prices.
We went on a turtle-watching boat trip and were blown away by the area’s sheer beauty.
The trip took us up the Dalyan river, past ancient tombs to the most beautiful lake you can imagine.
We saw just the one turtle but the bird life among the reeds was breathtaking. When you are there, it is easy to see why the area was such a favourite with Alexander the Great.
You can stop at the famous mud baths along the river, which for thousands of years have promised bathers there eternal youth.
We also visited Turtle Beach, set amid miles of unspoilt Aegean coastline, and saw a sanctuary where they nurse injured turtles back to health.
