In January 2005 the government designated Dalaman to be a cultural and tourism development centre. This means government funded investment in the area to develop four golf courses, a yacht marina off the Dalaman coast and increased hotel bed capacity. The region is also a centre of thermal and eco tourism.
A newly completed tunnel between Gocek and Dalaman shortens the distance to Dalaman from other resorts.
There are two excellent sandy beaches, the protected Iztuzu and Sarigerme beach as well as the underdeveloped Dalaman beach where a yacht marina is planned to be built.
Dalyan is only 15 minutes from Dalaman and it is classified as a conservation area because of its natural beauty and ancient ruins.
There are number of historical sights and places of interest around Dalaman such as the ancient city of Kaunos a few kilometres away, Lycean rock tombs and many natural thermal Springs in the area.
Sporting facilities include trekking, mountaineering and jeep safaris in the nearby Golgeli Mountains, white water rafting, skiing in Sandras and Seki resort, and water sports.
Completion of golf courses will bring wealth to the area and as golfers frequent Dalaman, demand for properties and services will increase.

Dalaman for Investment
Property prices in Dalaman are rising faster than in other locations because of the government sponsored tourism development projects.
Tourism projects for Dalaman and the construction of new hotels, shops and restaurants will mean that the town will expand and by 2015 when the population is expected to reach 50 000 including foreigners.
Newly expanded Dalaman International Airport’s capacity will increase to 5 million people annually from 2 million currently.
Abuoyant employment market together with an influx of people into the area will bring an increased demand for rental properties according to government research 15 000 more properties will be needed in Dalaman to meet the demand.
Dalaman is an area of outstanding natural beauty, located on a fertile plain between the sea and mountains and benefits from its proximity to many areas of interest both historical and geographical with the town ideally situated for visiting the nearby resorts of Dalyan, Gocek, Sarigerme and Fethiye.
The nearby Golgeli Mountains present a great opportunity for those who enjoy trekking. The mountains are full of lakes and high plateau villages. There are two main beaches in the area: protected Iztuzu Beach, world’s 6th most famous beach (famous for the turtle Careta Careta which lay their eggs there), and blue flagged Sarigerme Beach 15 min away. The area is a sanctuary for sea turtles.
Dalaman is rapidly becoming an area of destination rather than just a stop over on the way to some other resort town. Recent investments to the Airport, improvements in the roads and the continuous development of the area are making it more accessible. Over - development and exploitation of the area is stopped by the protection afforded to the rare loggerhead turtles that frequent the river and beach. This should ensure that Dalaman continues to develop in harmony with its surroundings and retain its natural beauty.
