Should you be looking for a peaceful and quiet place to spend your holiday or to settle down, the small village of Torba should be considered an option. There are only approximately 7.700 inhabitants living in Torba which gives it a private and welcoming atmosphere.
The town can be found in the north east of the Bodrum Peninsula and therefore is just a short drive away from the famous resort of the same name. Due to its natural beauty, the traditional architecture, its magnificent beaches and the perfect location, Torba is an insider tip for tourists.
At the small port which is mainly used by local fishermen you can catch a ferry to the ancient Miletus and Priene or the amazing temple of Apollo. Also worth visiting are the remains of the Byzantine monastery and some 2500 years old ruins that are located nearby.
Torba is located on a hillside and therefore offers spectacular views of the sea and the great beaches that make the town so popular. There you will find some water sport facilities such as a diving centre but most travellers and locals prefer to relax and sunbathe on the beach.
Women will fully enjoy a stay in this small and charming resort as one of the town’s main economical incomes is the production and export of handbags. You will be able to go shopping in various shops along the promenade and the town centre.
