Çiftlik

The large sandy beach of the Çiftlik Bay attracts attention. There are very few beaches like Çiftlik beach in Marmaris and the other surrounding bays. The sea is always very clear. There are a few hotels and harbour restaurants in the bay. There is also a small island which is private property. The Gebekse Bay nearby is among the preferred places for blue cruise boats to spend the night. Gebekse Bay has a small beach and a harbour restaurant. It is very enjoyable to go snorkeling and watch the thousands of colours under water.
