the popular holidays and travel

Marmaris.
You will be fascinated for sure.
Below are the most popular
side trip destinations and
resorts located around Marmaris.
Among all these beautiful
destinations, we highly
recommend you to visit Dalyan,
Pamukkale and Ephesus. You
are able find and attend to a
daily excursion for those
destinations. A visit to the
popular holiday resorts of
Bodrum and
Gumbet is also an
alternative.
Dalyan is a popular resort
worthy of its Iztuzu turtle
beach, the sea turtles
(Caretta Caretta), healthy mud
bath and the ancient city of
Kaunos. |

The 7km beach at Dalyan, set in an environmentally protected area of natural beauty, and lapped by astonishingly clear Mediterranean waters will certainly not disappoint. It is
a little slice of pure bliss,
and from the town you can take
boat trips along the river,
stopping off at hidden ruins,
mud baths and the breading
grounds of the endangered
loggerhead turtle at the
beautiful, and imaginatively
named Turtle Beach. Dalyan's very famous mud bath
is another great attraction for
the visitors. A complete day
out, and the perfect way to get
to know a few of the many faces
of Marmaris.
Ephesus
is the best preserved, most
extensive and most attractive
Roman city in the Mediterranean.
It is truly astonishing. You can
see houses, city streets and
small shops, not merely the huge
temples, amphitheatres and
villas usually associated with
Roman sites. Here you can
genuinely explore life over
2,000 years ago. It is
impossible to over-exaggerate
the majesty of Ephesus, but of
course this means that it
attracts many visitors a year. |

Pamukkale is a natural
wonder of unrivalled beauty. The
hot mineral waters that have
been springing from the earth
here for centuries have created
a white stone wonderland, topped
by the ancient city of
Hierapolis above, sitting on the
plateau. The natural hot waters
are a special treat. Bathing,
especially in the morning or
evening is a particular joy,
surrounded by surreal yet
stunning landscapes, long,
undisrupted valley views, and
all the time, you know that the
waters are healing any stiff
joints or ailments you may have!
What more could you possibly
wish for?
Or perhaps you’ll want to take a
trip further afield, and spend
some time in Fethiye, where
you’ll find the amazing blue
lagoon of
Olu Deniz, which the
whole family will fall in love
with. |
