Holidays in Marmaris - DALAMAN AREA - Turkey

Marmaris

Marmaris is a naturally beautiful resort and is situated on the West Coast of Turkey, a fantastic holiday destination. Translated Marmaris means “glittering and shining” which is an accurate description as it truly is the jewel of the Turkish Riviera. Located on a stunning bay where the Aegean Sea meets the Mediterranean and surrounded by idyllic pine covered hills, it is famous around the world amongst keen yachters. Marmaris is one of the most popular resorts for holidays in Turkey.

Marmaris is a mixture of old and new, buildings of a bygone era sit side by side with the modern constructions of today. The streets are bustling and it can be quite awing at first with shop owners and salesmen competing for your business-but don’t worry it becomes an essential part of the experience and can be quite fun haggling prices.

During the day you can visit the harbour where there are some charming restaurants and cafes as well as some boat trips that can take you to places such as the Greek island of Rhodes. At night the “Strip” comes to life and this is where you will find all of the bars and clubs of the resort.

Many local tour companies offer day excursions such as Jeep Safaris that make a fantastic day out for all of the family. They are a great way of seeing the true natural beauty of the Marmaris, away from the hub of the resort.

The volcanic grey sand and shingle beaches attract families, groups and couples to the resort year after year for their holidays. Why not have a look at some of our fantastic holiday bargains and late deals so that you too can enjoy all that the “jewel of the Turkish Riviera” has to offer.
