Hisarönü

At the 22nd km of the Datça road there is a turn off to Bozburun on the left. This road leads to Hisarönü which is only 1km away from the turn off. Hisarönü Village is at the furthest point of the bay which is named Hisarönü Bay. The village is a small distance from the main road. The sea is shallow here and the sand is a terracotta color. Hisarönü is another good choice for those who want to have a relaxing vacation far from the crowds of Marmaris. The weather is always windy and of low humidity. Combined with the clean water of Hisarönü, it is especially good for those who suffer from asthma. It is the best place for windsurfing around Marmaris. There is also a horse riding f acility. Boarding houses are also widespread. There are remains of a holy area named Kastabos between the village and the inlet. These remains belong to the Hemithea Temple.

Bozburun

We started to travel around Marmaris.... I tell you a little about Bozburun. You should see here... Bozburun is a nice part of your long Marmaris Trip...

Bozburun is one of the most secluded places of the region from the view of tourism. This place is recommended for people who are after a peaceful, relaxing vacation. There are not any large tourist facilities, all the facilities are small but good. Bozburun is in one of the bays of the Sömbeki Gulf. The environment can be considered as quite naked compared to other regions of Marmaris. There are small motels, pensions and good fish restaurants in the village. People grow their own vegetables in the gardens of their houses and collect eggs from their own poultry houses. Local people go fishing daily for fish and sea products. Everything within the village is in walking distance. Villagers use bikes to get around. Bozburun is famous for constructing schooners. There are many small shipyards and slipways on the shore forming an interesting view. Saranda district in Söğüt Village, which is only 5km away from Bozbururn, is the best place to watch the Sömbeki Inlet and Simi Island at sunset. The ancient cities of Taşlıca and Phoinix are also worth seeing.

Marmaris water and saloon sports centre

There are many spots between Marmaris and İçmeler where water sport facilities are available. Activities from sea bicycling to canoeing, windsurfing to water skiing. Everything from banana rides to parasailing and water parks are available.

Water sports facilities are available at beaches outside the town of Marmaris like Turunç, Kumlubük, Çiftlik, Bozburun, Orhaniye, Hisarönü and Selimiye. Marmaris is very suitable for every kind of sporting activity and organization especially outside the summer season. The semi-Olympic swimming pool operated by the municipality also has facilities for competitions. Recently Marmaris began hosting volleyball, basketball, triathlons, tennis and wrestling activities. The yacht competitions, which are organized annually in November is another highlight which adds colour to the life in Marmaris.
