At the head of a bay encircled by high wooded hills lies the resort of Marmaris.
To illustrate the growth of this location over the past 50 years, the population was merely 3,000 in the 1960s, whereas it now exceeds 250,000 during the summer months.
This increase is well-justified, as Marmaris offers virtually everything one might desire from a Mediterranean holiday.
Visitors can immerse themselves in pristine nature among uninhabited islands, coves, and densely wooded hills, while also enjoying the vibrant atmosphere of a contemporary resort filled with bars, nightclubs, and numerous dining options.
Cultural offerings abound, with archaeological sites and an exquisite museum located in the town, alongside boats leaving from the resort’s elegant marina to coastal nature reserves and secluded islands.
