9TURKEY’S TURQUOISE COAST

Ok, so it’s not technically Europe, but Turkey is firmly on the European summer holiday circuit so we’ll let this one slide. Because the seas in this part of Turkey are so blue that the whole stretch of coastline is named ‘The Turquoise Coast’.

Some of the best beaches in the area are Patara, Çiralı, and the famous Ölüdeniz, but to really appreciate the clarity of the waters you need to hop on a traditional wooden boat (called a gulet) to explore to otherwise inaccessible bays.
