Marmaris is situated in a picturesque bay on the Aegean coastline, surrounded by rugged pine clad mountains. Famous for it’s greenery, you will see nothing but palm trees, olive trees, orange trees, and colours from beautiful flowers such as bougainvillea sprouting out wherever you look. The seafront, edged with a sand and shingle beach, runs from Marmaris right through to İçmeler Bay which is 8Km away. Lined with sunbeds for hire, and a wide selection of watersports to keep you busy.Along the whole promenade, you will find restaurants, bars, kareoke and discos to suit everyone’s taste. The nightlife is abundant, and if your fed up with the promenade try Bar Street – exactly that – to enjoy live bands or Turkish music. As most bars and restuarants are open air or have a garden area, it’s suitable for the whole family to have a sing and dance. But remember, real clubbing doesn’t start till 10.00PM here, so don’t go home before it’s all started.

For the shop-aholic, you won’t need to venture out of Marmaris. With the permanent bazaar, local Friday market and the modern supermarkets, you’ll find everything your looking for on the doorstep.

Cosmopolitan charms of Marmaris, that used to be a fishing village less than 20 years ago, will surprise anyone with a choice of entertainment. Once a little fishing port, Marmaris has developed into one of Turkey’s busiest and most Anglicized resorts. Its port welcomes luxury cruise liners, which disgorge passengers keen to sample the town’s extensive facilities and visit the archaeological sites nearby, just to name a few - the ancient city of Efes, (the second biggest city of Roman Empire, after Rome); another sightseeing place not to be missed is Pamukkale, that is considered to be the 8th world wonder.
