When it comes to picking a holiday destination, the UK is spoilt for choice! Whether you fancy the Med, the Caribbean or even a luxury cruise, Brits have it all at their fingertips! Whilst somewhere like Spain remains a top seller, an increase in demand for destinations in Central and Eastern Europe as well as places such as Egypt, has proved that Brits are willing to branch out and try something new!

According to recent research by Holiday Watchdog, the most popular destination for 2006 is Turkey and the resort of Marmaris. What was once a quiet fishing village has now become the latest trend for UK holiday makers, offering excellent accommodation, a variety of restaurants and shops as well as boasting some of the leading beaches nearby.

Marmaris is based in the Aegean region of Turkey and its modern marina is surrounded by hills and mountains complemented by its beautiful turquoise waters and sandy beaches. The area has something to offer everyone and attracts families, couples and even water sport enthusiasts, particularly sailors!

Specialist tour operator Libra Holidays is currently offering excellent deals to Marmaris so if you fancy visiting this years’ top holiday hot spot then get booking.

Libra Holidays offers seven nights All Inclusive at the four-star Caprice Hotel in Marmaris from £620 per adult. The hotel is set near the beach and offers a wide range of facilities including swimming pool, beach bar, Turkish bath, sauna and evening entertainment. The price is based on two sharing a twin standard room and includes return flights departing 1st September from Gatwick and transfers.

Bozburun Byzantine Shipwreck Excavation

marmaris — Sun, 04 Nov 2007 14:03:00 GMT

Bozburun Byzantine Shipwreck Excavation

The Bozburun ("gray cape") site lies at the base of a cliff, called Kucuven Burnu, on a sloping, sandy bottom. The visible portion of the site is a mound of amphoras approximately 20 meters long and 8 meters wide, although there are many artifacts lying in the rocks of the cliff face. The upper end of the primary mound, hard against the base of the cliff, lies at a depth of 26 meters. The last visible amphoras at the far end lie at approximately 34 meters, although it is apparent that material continues under the sand. The lowest datum points currently established lie at 36 meters.

The amphoras appear to be of two major classes common toward the end of the first millennium AD. The dominant class, are often referred to as "pyriform" (pear-shaped) or "ovoid" (egg-shaped) and are characterized by a tapering, ribbed body with rounded shoulders and round bottom without a foot; the neck is relatively tall and narrow, with a heavy, distinct rim, and the wide handles rise from the upper shoulder to just below the rim. The best parallels found so far are dated to the second half of the ninth century and come from kiln sites in the Crimea. The second class, noticeably shorter, with a wide, flaring neck and flat bottom with central dimple or kick, may be from the Sea of Marmara region (see the section on amphoras for more details).

In addition to the whole and broken amphoras that make up the greatest part of visible material, there are several concretions visible, and a collection of small bricks and building stones in the upper part of the site. Based on similar finds at Yassi Ada, it is currently thought that this may be the remains of the hearth. Anchors, of cruciform type, have been found on the rocks at the top of the wreck and mixed with the tumbled amphoras at the bottom. Based on the finds to date, it is expected that the upper end of the site is the stern.

The site has long been known to Turkish sponge divers and was shown to George Bass during INA's first survey in 1973 by a diver from Bozburun, Mehmet Askin. The site was surveyed in greater detail in 1982, when test pits revealed well-preserved (for Mediterranean waters) hull remains beneath the sand in two places. On the 1982 survey, another local sponge diver was interviewed, and he reported that the site had been known to his colleagues for some time, and perhaps as many as 50 whole jars had been removed over the years for use as water jugs on sponge boats. The site was also visited in 1992, to check out reports that the site was being looted (there is no obvious evidence of disturbance, but only a comparison with photos taken in 1982 will reveal whether significant damage was done), and in 1994 for the purpose of planning the excavation. A total of three amphoras, all of the first, pyriform class, were raised by INA before excavation began in 1995. A few amphoras in the Bodrum museum, donated by sponge divers, may also be from this wreck.

Marmaris is a great place to live

Marmaris and Icmeler has attracted many foreigners not only for short term visits as tourists, but also as residents. The number of people from around the world who work and live around Marmaris are increasing steadily every year. The easy and relaxing mediterranean life style, very friendly people, beautifull climate around the year, healthy food and living, affordability of real estate compared to home country, business opportunities beacuse of inefficiencies in the market and a lot of recreational activities to do are some of the factors that attracts people to this amazing corner of the mediterranean sea.

Marmaris and its surrounding area covers such a large area. When we say "live around Marmaris" we cover all of the unspoiled villages, fisherman's countryside, inland properties suitable for vineyarding, farming, etc.

So, Why then people choose to live in this particular area. As briefly mentioned above, the reasons are so many. Here are some of them explained:

Mediterranean Life Style

Who haven't heard about Mediterranean life style! Not so many people... It is publiciezed frequently that Mediterranean living is one of the best life styles you can adopt.So many books are published about it and a lot of people dream about retiring to a little town on the Mediterranean Coastline. What makes it so attractive and desirable? Actually the answer is very simple: The simplicity of daily life. Mediterranean people are know as very relaxed people. They are very happy with little things. They eat healthy since most of the ingredients are locally produced and sold in farmers markets. People communicate, held and share instead of competing with eachother. There is always smile in faces because of very little reasons: "The weather is nice :) ", "it is sunny today :) ","My wife is beautiful :)" are just a few basic reasons to be happy. After all, remember the movie "Life is Beautiful!" produced by Italians. Life is really beautiful. Very Friendly People
