A mixture of old and new, you can experience some of the best nightlife, volcanic beaches, hotels, restaurants, boat trips to nearby islands, shopping, watersports and not forgetting a 16th century Castle!
When to holiday in Marmaris:
The best times for a holiday are in the spring and autumn if you want a nice average heat (30°C between May and October), as in the summer it can climb to 40° quite regularly. If you come in July and August remember to pack plenty of cover ups for the sun and to keep well hydrated, as they are the hottest months of the year. Between May and October it is practically guaranteed to be sunny and warm every day; heavy rain storms can sometimes occur in the winter, but generally Marmaris is good for winter sun too, as the waters stay warm and you will be able to walk around in a T-shirt comfortably.
Things to do:
Marmaris has beautiful beaches and several marinas for you to explore. A very picturesque sea front, you can spend a day wandering along it looking at the boats and soaking up the sun.
