The entire coastline is dotted with quiet bays and picturesque villages, but for those looking for more than tranquillity, the bustling ports of Bodrum, Marmaris and Gocek have plenty to offer. It's also a journey back in time, with a myriad of archaeological sites, castles and temples reflecting its importance in ancient times. Particularly ideal for cruising is the southwest coast, roughly speaking, the stretch of coast from Izmir, via Kusadasi, Bodrum, Marmaris, Fethiye and Kas, to Antalya.
One of the best ways to get to know this magnificent coastline is on board one of the famous Turkish gulets.

Marmaris is located in a valley between pine-covered mountains and the clear blue sea and there is a very popular spot for sailing and diving. It's known for its lively nightlife, open-air clubs and music venues centered on Bar Street. The traditional quarter with its Ottoman castle is definitely worth a visit. If you are looking for a bit of quiet around Marmaris you can visit the spectacular surrounding area, including the rugged and relatively unvisited peninsulas of Bozburum and Datça. Marmaris is another great place for starting your gulet cruise and visiting the Greek Isle of Rhodes.
