All Marmaris hotels will provide a big selection of day outings. Two examples of popular destinations for holidaymakers seeking excursions out of the resort are Ephesus and Pamukkale.

Down the coastline you also have a number of distinctive beaches which are straightforward to travel to if you get a bus or hire an automobile or a motorbike. Pine trees line the sea shore and the countryside is beautiful but also incredibly verdant on the Turquoise Sea Coast, the area of Turkey where both Marmaris and Bodrum are located.

There’s plenty of opportunity to snorkel and dive and despite the fact that Bodrum does not boast its own beach you won’t need to venture a long way from the Bodrum hotels to see a terrific selection of beaches. Under Bodrum’s castle lies a remarkable underwater museum and the town also boasts an excellent aquarium and excellent transport infrastructure for those looking to explore further afield.

The dolmus is one think in Turkey that comes as a genuine culture shock to many tourists. This is a minibus service which picks people if they hail it on the street, much like a cab. Natives frequently suggest unscheduled stops and it can sometimes be very packed but it’s a nice manner in which to interact with the Turkish way of life. There are also shared cabs that work in the same way but are sturdy cars, not minibuses. Vacationing in Turkey is still relatively good value when contrasted with other countries in the euro zone. If you are short of cash, you can keep things cheap by snacking on mezze and the famous kebabs.

Turkey is a marvellous country for a vacation for families, partners and groups of chums alike and perhaps the most pleasing thing about Turkey hotels is that they go from basic self-catering flats to luxury boutique-style getaways.  In Marmaris and Bodrum the night life is buzzing and there is a wide selection of beaches within easy reach.
