Top Nature Reserves in Aegean

Check out the Hierapolis ruins first before hitting the pools. You can save time and avoid the heat while appreciating the history before you relax.

Wear water shoes! The surfaces can get super hot and slippery, and having good grip helped me stroll around the travertines comfortably

If you're planning to visit the thermal pools, I highly recommend getting there before 8 AM to beat the crowds. Trust me, the serenity in the early morning light is unbeatable!

Pro tip: if you want some solitude, head to the left side of the beach. It’s less crowded, and you can find some shady spots under the trees—way more relaxing than being in a packed area.
