On the Dalaman coast of Turkey lies the bustling and sprawling town of Marmaris. A long time favourite with British Holidaymakers, the loud and vibrant town always has plenty going on, by day and by night. The beautiful coastline, friendliness of the people and fabulous food and wine, it’s no wonder that despite the recent decline in overseas holidays, Marmaris has attracted visitors in their thousands.
Many don’t realise until they get to Marmaris what fabulous local wines are produced there. Aficionados have said that these wines match any in Europe, high praise indeed. As Turkey is out of the Euro zone, your holiday money goes a lot further in Marmaris, who still use the Turkish Lira as their currency. There aren’t the EU allowances for duty free goods but there are some great souvenirs you can bring back as gifts.
When it comes to choosing your accommodation, you are truly spoilt for choice. Room only, self-catering, bed and breakfast, half board, full board, all-inclusive; they are all available in Marmaris. There is nothing you could want that isn’t on offer, and the overwhelming opinion of how friendly the Turks are means that if there is something you need all you have to do is ask, and it will be delivered with a smile.
Many hotels have evening entertainment and Turkish evenings. These are quite spectacular and if your hotel has one, make sure you go, it will be one of the highlights of your holiday. There is an amazing choice of restaurants in and around Marmaris, and so many restaurants in competition means one thing, great food at great prices. If you usually end your evening with a kebab, wait until you taste the real McCoy, amazing.
With miles of stunning coastline, great accommodation and dozens of places to eat and drink, it’s no surprise that Marmaris is so popular. With both scheduled and charter airlines flying from the UK to Dalaman, you can pick up a real bargain and have yourself a fabulous holiday in Marmaris. Visitors return here year after year, why not go and experience for yourself everything that Marmaris has to offer?
