From the very beginning of this project, I have been filled with excitement at the prospect that the love for golf could also be experienced in the Bodrum Peninsula, defined as one of the most beautiful places in the world where this love
could be experienced, a place that inspired everyone to fall in love with the place throughout its long history.
I hope that Vita Park will also make you experience extraordinary and unforgettable feelings about your love for golf, just as it made us experience incredible feelings during the time we spent creating it. I am certain about this as much as my love for golf.
I look forward to meeting you in Vita Park, an entity we have created with the love for golf, as soon as possible.

THE LOCATION
Vita Park's location is one of the most important reasons for its unique atmosphere.
Vita Park is based in the village of Boğaziçi, three sides of which is surrounded by
water. It is situated between the towns of Milas and Bodrum, in the province of Muğla in south west Turkey.
Boğaziçi is very close to a natural area used as a saltpan centuries ago. One of the most important travellers of the 17th century, Evliya Çelebi, noted the taste of the salt produced in Tuzla , and wrote that the salt obtained here was not only consumed in Anatolia but was also exported to France. The Tuzla wetland located near the village is a well known bird sanctuary and paradise. It provides shelter and food for more than 260 species of migrant birds, primarily pelicans and flamingos; an indispensable living area for the birds and a neighbourhood with marvellous beauty for Vita Park.
Vita Park is not only close to this bird paradise, but also to many of the well known beauty spots and tourism places of Turkey. Bodrum, our country's world famous holiday and historical centre, is approximately twenty minutes away from Vita Park.
THE CLIMATE
Vita Park, established in an area blessed with typical Mediterranean climate with low humidity, provides golf fanatics with the chance to play golf throughout the year.
The low humidity is a golden feature not only for golfing, but also conducive for good health. Areas with low humidity are places especially recommended during the treatment and
subsequent recovery period of ill health concerned with lungs, heart, and other illnesses.
Such areas are also preferred by medical
specialists, thus places where much investment is made by both hospitals and natural
treatment centers.
The famous Meltemi wind in the peak of
summer allows golfers to enjoy their round of golf by helping them stay dry and also adds a little challange to their game.
Due to its climate features, unlike oher golfing destinations, Vita Park is the perfect choice to play golf and stay healthy every month of the year.
THE MILAS COURSE
Challenge. Playability. Natural Beauty. Camaraderie. Like the magnificent
cascading water features that ribbon the course, these are the central themes of our club. There is a philosophy of integrity which extends from easy to get tee times to a caddie program to a meticulous course design employing state-of-the art green construction and environmentally friendly pristine Paspalum turf.
The 5,795 meter Par-71 Milas course offers the charm and challenge of an Old World course with a feel that is reminiscent of
traditional Scottish links. The Milas course is born out of a deep love and respect for the game, a shared passion for excellence and a desire to play under the finest possible
conditions.

THE HALIKARNAS COURSE
The Halikarnas par-70, 6,480 meter course, due for completion in 2012, with its own private driving range, lush native landscaping and flowing creeks and waterfalls tantalize golfers' senses, designed with a dramatic Arizona golf course look due to topographic
features. Classic-style bunkering with bold flashes of native white sand will complement the occasional stacked sod wall edges.
The Halikarnas course is expected to be a "players club" with a very
challenging layout from the
tournament tees- a world- class championship golf course suitable for prestigious national and
international events.
We are absolutely convinced!
AFTER GOLF
Vita Park is right in the middle of great alternatives in terms of cultural and entertainment facilities, and holiday opportunities after golf.
Bodrum is a town which has countless attractions, including well known bars, clubs, hotels, cafes and
restaurants, marinas ,health centers, blue voyages afloat on locally made wooden gulets, the Crusader Castle, and a Greco-Roman Antique Theatre.
Some of the other wonders relatively close to Vita Park, are Ephesus, the House of Virgin Mary, and Pamukkale, which is truly amazing with miraculous falls of calcified water and thermal pools.
