Marmaris Introduction

Marmaris, on southern Turkey’s Mediterranean coast, was one of the first Turkish resorts to become popular with British holidaymakers and is one of Turkey’s most beautiful towns. It is a lively centre populated by very friendly locals. Its large beach, water sporting facilities, boulevards with shops, bars and restaurants all combine to draw thousands of visitors every year.

Why Go To Marmaris

Marmaris sits in the centre of a large bay that is encircled by pine clad hills. The resort stretches for miles along the bay having grown to accommodate its increasing numbers of visitors. This has lead to other villages, such as Icmeler, becoming resorts and benefiting from tourist revenue. A Marmaris holiday provides all the essential ingredients that go into making pleasurable memories.

Who Is Marmaris Popular With

Marmaris is popular with families with small children and those who just want to relax in the sun. There is a wealth of sporting activities to satisfy the most energetic of holiday makers. The nightlife in Marmaris is fairly lively and, if they wish, young people can dance until dawn.

When To Go To Marmaris

The holiday season lasts from early spring until late autumn when the temperature range is from the twenties to the high thirties. Although the summer period is the most popular, spring and autumn are good times to visit historical sites when the days are cooler.

Marmaris - The Place

Marmaris lies framed by hills on a beautiful Mediterranean coastline. With its guarantee of summer sun it is very popular with British tourists. Its long sandy beaches stretch five kilometres along the coast offering perfect conditions for families with children.

There are many opportunities for taking a trip in a Gulet, a large wooden sailing boat, to explore the coast or visit islands.

An exciting attraction is the Atlantis Water Park which is very popular with all age groups. It has some nail-biting flumes and rides that are certainly not suited to the Nervous Nellies of this world.

There are shops and markets to satisfy most people and numerous bars and restaurants serving a wide range of food. The promenade is particularly attractive in the evening when the sun goes down. Nightlife is lively with many clubs remaining open until dawn.

As you might expect, boat trips are widely available and you can even take your passport and enjoy a trip to the nearby Greek island of Kos.
