Dalaman

Dalaman delivers world-class beaches in good measure – the town of Fethiye alone is famous for its silk-soft sands and buzzing old town. Meanwhile, over in slowed-down Sarigerme, a seven-kilometre stretch of sandy beaches are a big hit for wedding parties with mini wedding guests in tow.

Antalya

Antalya forms part of a south-west coastal stretch known as the Turkish Riviera. It gets its name from the turquoise waters that lap its shores and the pretty villages and towns that pepper the land close by. The coast stretches for more than 400 miles, giving you plenty of room to take some time for two after the big day.

Izmir

Turkey’s third-largest city cosies up to the Aegean Sea on Turkey’s west coast. The town of Kusadasi’s the big name when it comes to holidays here – it’s got more beaches than days of the week and an old town that’s struck a perfect blend between old and new. Ephesus is well worth a visit, too – this ancient city’s only a 30-minute drive away.
