Bodrum sits on the Aegean coast of southern Turkey and is flanked on one side by a large rocky peninsula that offers amazing views of the crystal waters below. It has a reputation as a clubbers' paradise and resembles an open-air disco during the peak season! However the ancient harbour itself is in stark contrast to the resorts that stretch out along the coast and here you can find the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus which is one of the seven ancient wonders of the world.

How to get there
Direct flights to Bodrum operate from London although you can get a range of indirect options from cities like Manchester Edinburgh and Belfast. A direct flight to Bodrum takes about four and half hours. A large number of carriers are on offer, so it shouldn't be difficult to grab a cheap flight.

When to go
Bodrum almost guarantees you summer sunshine; as with most of the Med this also coincides with peak tourist season and in June, July and August it's much harder to find bargains on Bodrum flights. Those trying to avoid the mass ranks of clubbers should try either side of summer - April, May, September and October when it's much quieter and easier to find a cheap flight. Take care when booking flights in winter as many resorts shut down.

What to do
If clubbing is your thing then you'll find lots of bars and nightclubs which are packed throughout the peak season. Despite hosting one of the ancient wonders of the world there isn't a huge array of historical sites within easy reach but out of peak season the beaches are an excellent way to top up your tan and get some much needed relaxation. The waters are generally warm and shallow making it excellent for bathing, especially for children.
