Marmaris, Turkey
Sailboat Shipping & Boat Delivery to Marmaris 36°51'N 28°16'E
Cosmopolitan charms of Marmaris, that used to be a fishing village less than 20 years ago, will surprise anyone with a choice of accommodation and entertainment. Marmaris is a Turkish Riviera.
The old quarter of the town with its bustling bazaars and restaurants is well worth a visit. During the day people head for the beach to do catamaran trips, parasailing, water skiing, sailing, scuba diving etc...
Icmeler and its beach is 8 km down the road or you can visit Cleopatra's Island and the Turtle Beach.
Once a little fishing port, Marmaris has developed into one of Turkey's busiest and most Anglicized resorts. Its port welcomes luxury cruise liners, which disgorge passengers keen to sample the town's extensive facilities and visit the archaeological sites nearby, like: the ancient city of Efes (the second biggest city of Roman Empire, after Rome), Pamukkale (that is considered to be the 8th world wonder).
Marmaris also is South Aegean's prettiest resort for scuba diving. There are several dive centers in Marmaris that arrange guided diving trips, excursions and even provide diving lessons for the inexperienced individuals, eager to try out this underwater sport.
Shopping is a delight in Marmaris. Leather goods of all kinds, natural sponges and the local blue glass beads (the Boncuk) are among the bargains to be found in the friendly little shops along the downtown bazaar. Charming boutiques at the end of the promenade offer kilims, carpets, sandals and embroidery as well as original fashions.
Dockwise provides sailboat shipping for clients who want to explore the radiance of this popular Turkish destination.
Marmaris is at 310 mi/500 km south of Istanbul.
