Turunç Diary - March 2016

Merhaba

Well this is the final diary before the start of season: let's hope it's a good one for all businesses.

It's been a fairly quiet month.  The new road around the Turunç Premier hotel is complete now and its almost finished heading down towards Yalı Restaurant.  Outside the Yalı this month, the lovely seating area on the beach has been demolished.  Is this a refurbishment or on the alleged orders of Muğla Council?  We will have to see on that one.

The early part of the month saw the beach being dug up to enable a new fibre optic internet cable to be run with the ship dragging it to who knows where.

A few tourists and day boats started arriving over the Easter holidays with some shops opening hoping to get some early business.

Work has finished now at Körfez Restaurant with some sliding doors for early and late season.

Further up the mountain there is yet more building going on with what looks like two villas.

Other than that the weather continues to hold though I wouldn't like you to think that it is all sweetness in the winter months. To show how fickle the weather can be here are some photos taken on 24th February several years apart

Gürüşürüz!
