Belek home page || Belek history and enviroment
There are first class holiday resorts and hotels in Belek suitable for non golf family holidays. All are of 5 star standards offering an excellent range of leisure facilities, both for the golfer and non golfer. There is plenty to see and do in the area, away from the golf course. For those who would prefer, there are also lots of self catering apartments and villas close to the golfing area as an alternative to all inclusive hotel accommodation. Car hire can be arranged for people staying both in the hotels or self catering accommodation. With the development of the area, so the infrastructure of facilities has grown. There are many restaurants and shops now which is a benefit to those preferring to go self catering.
Belek offers the tourist sun, sea, sand, forests and golf. The forest is predominantly pine trees and these are unique to any of the other species. They appear to be similar to a nearly extinct variety of pine from the hills near the Bosphorus, with tall trunks and branches that open out like umbrellas. The forest is not dense, and therefore it is easy to take walks beneath them. Alternatively, you can go horse riding through the forest. There are a number of stables that offer riding lessons and trekking tours.
Belek by Day
From your base it is never far to one of the growing number of golf courses in the area. Alternatively, there are areas of outstanding beauty to explore, including the Kursunlu Waterfall, the Koprulu National Park and Canyon and the fantastic coastline. For shopping it is a short trip along the coast to Antalya or simply relax by the pool or on a local beach.
Belek by Night
As tourism grows so does Belek's facilities and, for those not enjoying all-inclusive hotel hospitality, there are a growing number of bars and restaurants to cater for all tastes. Belek enjoys a Mediterranean climate so whilst it tends to be warm even in the winter months it is sometimes necessary to wear a light jumper or similar in the evenings.
