The Didim Sailing Club has become the first club in the Aydin district to be certified. Many guests attended the event including Cenap Fillikcioglu, the Aydin Provincial Director of Youth and Sports, M. Umut Tuncer, the Aydin Provincial Culture and Tourism Director, the Didim Tourism Association President Mustafa Senturk and Didim Sailing Club President Hulya Zayan.
Aydin Provincial Culture and Tourism Director M. Umut Tuncer stated “We use all the opportunities to create tourism added value by using all the instruments of the sea for complementary tourism. In this sense, we managed to add another feature for Didim tourism to our tourism portfolio. We have given Didim Sailing Club a tourism certificate to realize tourism activations. It will have color value for Didim tourism.”
Aydin Provincial Director of Youth and Sports Cenap Fillikcioglu said “We are making efforts to develop water sports in Aydin and contribute to tourism. We believe that our sailing club, which has a tourism certificate, will develop tourism in the direction of sports.”
Hülya Zayan, Didim Sailing Club President, stated “I am very happy. We were the first to get the tourism certificate in Aydin. Unfortunately, we should have 50 athletes, but we have 15. Our summer athletes exceed 100. We do wind, laser, catamaran and optimist surfing. Families think that this sport cannot be done in winter, they will get cold. In many cold countries, they do this sport by breaking the ice.”
During the event students of the Sailing Club went onto to sail after the speeches were given.
