Bodrum
Bodrum is situated exactly as Halicarnassus was many years ago. The main road runs inland from
Bodrum Castle, which is set on a rocky headland between two bays. This
main road and the bays on either side form the town centre. Visitors should
take a small walk to appreciate the boats in the harbour, the unforgettable
smell of the sea, the narrow streets adorned with colourful bougainvillea and
the tranquility of the white-washed houses.
The bays around the peninsula, with their multiple shades of blue, will strengthen any affinity with nature. In the town centre, the smell of history pervades the nights full of entertainment.
As you travel around the peninsula, the windmills that you see are the remains of an ancient tradition. Their basic function was to grind the wheat for making daily bread. At the same time they signal the wind situation on the peninsula; a wind that cools even the hottest days in the Mediterranean.
A product that is always associated with Bodrum is the mandarin orange. White houses nestle amongst the green orchards bursting with orange fruit. A feast for the eyes as well as the palate
ORTAKENT (Müskebi)
Located at the centre
of the peninsula where all the main roads cross, Ortakent has examples of 300
year old traditional Bodrum architecture. Apart from the market, village
weddings and the goings-on of daily life in its flourishing gardens, the
beaches are well worth a visit. Along the coast there are many possibilities
for water sports. Camel Beach in Kargi Bay is a long natural sandy beach. It
takes its name from the camels that lie on the beach and, for a fee, take
tourists on a ride. It’s interesting to see the small lilies that grow in the
sand, here.
Ortakent market takes place every Wednesday, offering the freshest fruit and vegetables imaginable.
Minibuses to Ortakent depart from the central bus station every 10 minutes and the journey takes around 20 minutes.
GÖLTÜRKBÜKÜ (Farilya)
Within the margins of Gündoğan lies Peynir Çiçeği Cave, where the oldest remains of human settlement on the peninsula were discovered. It is believed that they date from the Calcholithic period. Along with these ancient remains, there are numerous hiking trails in the pine forests covering the hillsides above Gündoğan. The pensions, hotels, cafés and restaurants on the shore are relatively quiet.
With a rented boat you can reach the offshore Apostol Island which has the ruins of a church that is believed to date from the 12th century. The remains of buildings around the church possibly belonged to monks. This beautiful island is as green as the surroundings of the town. You can still see the villagers working in the mandarin orchards and olive groves.
Minibuses to Gündoğan depart from the central bus station every 25 minutes and the journey takes around half an hour.
BARGILYA
Although not far from Bodrum, the Bargilya settlement remains untouched by tourism. If you come in October or November, you’ll see all the inhabitants busy gathering olives. At one of the lovely fish restaurants alongside the quiet lagoon (where the sea resembles a lake), it feels like a different world.
The lagoon, or ‘Tuzla Lake’, is an important refuge for migratory birds and a favourite spot for birdwatchers. Flamingos in particular can be observed here easily.
The name of Bargilya derives from Bargylos who, according to legend, founded this town in memory of his mother, before he himself was killed by Pegasus (the mythical winged horse). Bargilya has the perfect blend of history, nature and tranquillity.
In order to get to Bargilya you have to take the minibus to Mumcular from Bodrum central bus station. Ask the driver to drop you off at the road to Bargilya. Minibuses depart for Mumcular every 15 minutes.
MUMCULAR
The most remote settlement of the Bodrum region is Mumcular. The village is located on the road to two beautiful Blue Cruise stops, Mazı and Ç;ökertme, in the Gulf of Gökova. Enjoy the turquoise waters of the gulf and the untouched coastline. No construction beyond the normal needs of the village has affected these places, so the surrounding woodland is just a step away, and a delight for all nature lovers.
Traditional Milas carpets and kilims are still woven today in most Mumcular houses. The women of Mumcular collect specific roots and herbs for dyeing the yarn. It’s possible to go and visit these houses to watch the women at their looms.
Minibuses to Mumcular depart from the central bus station every 15 minutes and the journey takes about 40 minutes.
YALICIFTLIK
Apart from a handful of great big holiday resorts, there are almost no tourist facilities in Yalıçiftlik, probably the peninsula’s greenest and most peaceful spot. For a swim, there are quiet pebble beaches. On the road to Yalıçiftlik, passing through pine woodland and olive groves, you can spot domed water cisterns and other reminders of the simple and tranquil village life.
It’s a two-hour climb if you want to see the ancient city of Theangla on the top of the hill, but if you sit in the village coffee shop and have a chat with the locals instead, you could well be invited to a house where carpets are woven in the courtyard.
Minibuses to Yalıçiftlik depart from the central bus station every 30 minutes and the journey takes about half an hour.
NIGHT TIME
Bodrum is a unique town with exceptional appeal where you can be entertained around the clock. Just as it’s possible to drift off to sleep to a chorus of bird song in a tranquil cove you can also have a wild time out on the town until dawn. As a visitor to Bodrum you’ll meet new people at unforgettable parties. Dance until daybreak aboard Turkey’s only floating disco or get caught up in the atmosphere in one of the worlds few open air nightclubs. Famous faces come from far and wide to entertain and be entertained in Bodrum. You too can become a part of the Bodrum nightlife and experience all the delights it has to offer. In Meyhaneler Street a tempting variety of meze is best complimented by a glass of Turkish Rakı. Here you will discover the more traditional kind of entertainment favoured by Bodrum residents.
As the night progresses join in a song with one of the groups of musicians who wander between the tables.
DAY TIME
The Aqua park should be at the top of the list for those seeking daytime fun. A favourite with children, there’s a great time to be had by all in Turkey’s biggest water park.
Days fly by on the Bodrum peninsula where an extensive range of interesting activities are on offer. You can go horse riding through mountain villages or trek through forest trails. Feel the adrenaline course through your veins on a jeep safari which affords a birds-eye perspective of the landscape. You can embark on a journey of discovery by renting a bicycle or motorbike and visiting an antique site.
Don’t miss the opportunity to join one of the daily boat trips which provide views of the coastline from a different perspective. On your tour you will wonder at the crystal clear turquoise waters known as “aquariums”. Boats offering daily tours can be found at jetties in Bodrum, Gümbet, Turgutreis, Yalikavak, Göltürkbükü and Torba. Your tour operator can provide you with further information
