FOUR investors have visited Didim this week to investigate the potential of kick-starting the much-vaunted golf course projects.
Two Swedish and two Turkish groups visited the area to look at land off the road on the way to Akbük which has been allocated by government ministers for golf tourism.
The visit on Wednesday (June 11) came two years after Spanish company FADESA investigated the potential of setting up a top quality golf course in Didim, but declined to follow up their interest.
The four investors visited Mayor Mümin Kamacı and the Didim Estate Agencies Association before the association’s deputy chairman Sevim Külekçi took them on a site visit. The investors left Didim the same day.
One investor Fuat Yücel, speaking to Voices Newspaper by phone, said they were pleased with the visit. He added: “We want to be involved in golf tourism with our foreign partners in the Aegean region and we see great potential in Didim.
“We have a planned budget of 20 million Euros for a project, but we still need to investigate other areas in Bodrum and Ayvalık before we make a firm decision.
“If we decide on Didim, we will open the golf course in three years.”
