This is the town of Turgutreis where I spent my holiday.

From Wiki:
Turgutreis is a town in Turkey about a 60 minute drive from Bodrum International Airport. It is the second largest town on the Bodrum peninsula.

The town is named after the famous Turkish admiral Turgut Reis who was born there in 1485. Known in the West as Dragut, Turgut Reis was famous for his expeditions on the coasts of Spain, France, Italy and North Africa, and his participation in the Ottoman siege of Malta. A few kilometres outside the town center, a waterfront memorial with his statue marks the place where he first set sail.

Today the town is a centre for commerce on the western side of the peninsula. Produce from the surrounding villages are collected here for transport, while bakeries, shops and services flourish. The town is a popular holiday destination. Very recently, a new Marina was built in spite of protests and criticisms as townsfolk deemed it an eyesore.
