GENERAL INFO


Marmaris is one of the most popular summer holiday & resort town of Turkey located in South West of the country by the Mediterranean coast, within the boundaries of Mugla Province of Turkey.
Beautiful coastline, friendly people, good fresh foods and delicious local wines, that could easily compete against many European vineyards.

Visitor Feedbacks and Comment about Gay Life in Marmaris.

- There are no gay exclusive venues in Icmeler or Marmaris. However, there are a lot of gays holidaying in Turkey, all made very welcome and we have quite a number of gays who come in to Marmaris  regularly. They all love Turkey! (
January 2005)

- My partner and I love it, we went twice last year, and going again in June, and will probably go again towards back end of the season. You are always made welcome no matter what you are. That's just the Turkish people for you they will go out of their way to make your stay enjoyable. Relax and enjoy. (

You should have no problems in Turkey - the general atmosphere is that it is not spoken about. We travel to Turunc each year, just round the bay from Icmeler and Marmaris - just a water taxi away, and was warmly welcomed there, the shop keepers will flirt with guys, especially if means a sale - be warned they do catch on very quickly and you will find yourself being served in the shops by very cute boys. We did experience one episode of homophobia, and it was from a Brit - he made some comment about my partner and I, and left the bar. The owner said that he would much rather have us drinking there than "his type!". Expect a warm welcome, but the Turks do think that one of you must be a woman type and the other the man - warning if you choose to be the woman, you may find that they will treat you as they treat women there, in other words you won't really exist as anything other than your partners property!  We held hands in public, and put our arms around each other - nothing was said - the men out there are much closer to each other than us Brits. (November 2008)

- Me and my partner have been going to Icmeler twice a year for the last 3 years now. We are a gay couple. We have had no problems what so ever, and we love the Turkish people. I don't think they really care. We have never had any trouble from tourists there either. Also you can find Bella Baserk doing his show in Bacchas Bar on the sea front of Marmaris. Bella is a very successful drag artist from the UK. He will make you very welcome, and his show is the best I have seen with a different show for every night of the week. There is also the Stella Show in Icmeler in the Harmony bar. Depends if this is your kind of entertainment. I am just highlighting this to show that the general attitude with gay people is fine. (December 2008)

BARS AND CLUBS


Gay & Gay Friendly Bars and Clubs in Marmaris:

There are no gay-exclusive bars or clubs in Marmaris. It is hard to guarantee every bar owner/staff will automatically be gay-friendly but most bars and clubs in Marmaris would be gay-friendly to some degree, and the town itself can be classified as one of the gay-friendly destinations of Turkey - unless you exaggerate to show off how gay you are. For example holding hands etc can usually be tolerated but kissing in public can sometimes cause homophobic reactions.

General Visitor Feedbacks for Gay Bars and Clubs in Marmaris:

 -Visitor comment about CHAMPAGNE BAR/RESTAURANT in Icmeler/MARMARIS:
'We were in Icmeler for 2 weeks and we discovered this bar-restaurant called Champagne on the main street, near the seaside. It was my friend's birthday and we decided to celebrate it there. we reserved a table for the diner and Yurda made our soiree fantastic, lovers on the tables, candles and a very remarkable "happy birthday" wish on a big sheet of cloth. He even prepared a birthday cake for us. When my partner cut the cake, all the staff started to shout, kiss, kiss, kiss and he kissed me on the lips and they all applauded was amazed how cool and sincere they were. Homosex is ok and accepted if you do not make a fuss about it and act like adults. We always returned to the same place for a pint or for a meal and always treated like everyone else and never had a remark. And as a French, I am the chef of a famous Parisian restaurant and can tell you the food is really good especially the fish in salt and the pepper stake. we are going back next year and we will be there again and again. Lovely spot Icmeler.' (Posted by Marcel from France on 16/08/2009

- I've been 2 Marmaris for 4 years now and I have took loads of my gay mates they always end up down bar street coz they always pulled the locals and tourists. You might find someone at the end of the night in Crazy Daisy bar. (April 2007)

 - It is not a gay bar but I recommend Captains Bar in Marmaris, take the dolmus or mini bus from Icmeler and get off at Gima Point Center which is a shopping centre on your right hand side. Get off the bus and walk towards the beach and Captains is on your left. Its a karaoke bar and that seems to have a gay crowd. Also Cheers bar is on the other corner and there is usually a small gay crowd i there too. These bars are located in an area called Long Beach which has lots of other bar/clubs too or you could try Bar Street where there is a gay crowd to but no bar is an active gay bar as such. Hope this helps. (April 2008)

- I went to the reopening night of Crazy Daisy last week. I is NOT A GAY NIGHTCLUB i also saw people turned away and when I asked my Turkish friend about this I was informed that they are not to keen on letting just males in and prefer couples (May 2008)

- There is a bar called Cheers but its not a gay bar!! It has a good drag show and few of the gay lads are in every night and they are really good laugh!! Though it isn't exclusively a gay bar you won't ever get any prejudice or trouble there!! (June 2008)

 - There are no gay bars in Marmaris. People of all persuasion, simply live for the moment at venues such as Club Areena in Barlar Caddesi/bar street (June 2008)

 - There isn't any gay bars in Marmaris , but Talk of the Town is a good place to go. Talk of the Town isn't a gay bar! its a drag show and very possibly you will find some of the gay scene will gather there. (June 2008)

 - Cheers bar is not a gay club but would say it gay friendly. They have drag shows in the bars sometimes. (August 2008)

BEACHES & CRUISING AREAS


Gay Cruising in Marmaris:

In general, the cruising areas - especially parks and secluded beaches are where gay men should be more selective with the people they meet. It is always possible to come across to some bad guys who want to trap the gay men in such places. Especially, be careful at night time and do not carry very valuable things and a lot of money on you, just in case.

Possible cruising places in Marmaris are:

-The neighborhood of Yat Limani-Yacht harbor, usually after it gets dark.
-Barlar sokagi/bar street late in the evening.

Please note that cruising in these places is not very obvious, so you need to watch out carefully to catch the right people, but try to avoid tourist hustlers while doing this.

Visitor Feedbacks:
-"For cruising walk down the sea front around 2pm toward the harbour, be careful of the gigolos there also nearly got robbed by two guys. They were gypsies. Make sure you put money in shoe before you go cruising and your key, but u will get something" (
April 2007)


Gay Beaches in Marmaris:
 

Marmaris downtown beach (Long beach)

There are no gay beaches in Marmaris. The downtown beach Uzunyali (long beach) is possibly where most Turkish gay tourists would be going for cruising. Is has dark volcanic sand which is flanked by a wide promenade. Many resorts have private beaches which can be enjoyed by the guests staying in the hotel. The beaches in Marmaris, in most of the resort hotels, are covered with coarse black sand.

There are two quieter beaches nearby accessible by dolmus minibuses or water taxi - Icmeler and Turunc beaches. Icmeler is a smaller resort within the boundaries of Marmaris district. Its beach is a mix of sand and shingle, but is far longer, yellower and less crowded. Turunc is 20 km away by land and 15 miles away by sea. It can be reached in half an hour using the winding asphalt road crossing the forest in Icmeler. Once a small fishing village, now it accommodated many facilities including cafes, restaurants, hotels and pensions. Turunc is surrounded by high hills planted with pine trees all over.

For a truly beautiful local beach, head offshore to Cleopatra's Beach/Island (Sedir Island), where you can most easily go with daily boat tours departing from downtown Marmaris. Legend has it that this island was given to Cleopatra as a present by Mark Anthony and he imported the fine white sand to the island from Egyptian shores in order to show his love to Cleopatra, who refused to step on any place other than Egyptian land. Sedir Island is the site of an ancient Roman resort town. Existing ruins include an enormous amphitheater and old city wall.

Another market which is well worth checking out is the Marmaris Village Market, also known as the Thursday Market, where you will find fresh fruits, vegetables, fabrics and clothes. The market is held in G. Mustafa Muglali Caddesi and is open on Thursdays.

For food, there is a large supermarket at the end of the main road before the harbour and marina called Tansas which stocks virtually everything including international brands. Tansas has a sister company called Migros which has two stores in Marmaris, one at the harbour and another larger store on the main road close to the Marmaris Court building.

ABOUT MARMARIS

 

Marmaris, Icmeler beach

Marmaris is a port city and a tourist destination on the Mediterranean coast, located in southwest Turkey, in the Mugla Province. Marmaris' main source of income is tourism. While little is left of the sleepy fishing village that Marmaris was just a few decades ago after a construction boom in the 1980s, Marmaris still retains its charm due to the exceptional natural beauty of its location. Marmaris' nightlife rivals anything on the Turkish coast.

It is also a major centre for sailing, possessing two major and several smaller marinas. It is a popular wintering location for hundreds of cruising boaters. There are regular ferry services to the Greek island of Rhodes, and large cruise ships call at the port.

Marmaris bay resembles a calm lake and offers ideal mooring for yachts. The Marmaris Netsel Marina, one of the largest and best-equipped in Turkey, and the Marmaris Albatross Marina, one of the best for wintering and maintaining yachts, make Marmaris an excellent starting point for the Blue Voyage tour of the Aegean Coast. Marmaris is an important port city and a tourist destination on the Mediterranean coast, located in southwest Turkey, in the Mugla Province.

It is a popular wintering location for hundreds of cruising boaters. There are regular ferry services to the Greek island of Rhodes, and large cruise ships call at the port. Although it is not certain when Marmaris was founded, in the 6th century BC the city was known as Physkos, and considered part of Caria.

Arrival:
There are regular bus connection to Marmaris from all major cities and towns of Turkey. Dalaman is the nearest airport to Marmaris (90 km) and there are frequent flights from Istanbul Ataturk Airport. There is airport shuttle service of HAVAS for each domestic flight from Dalaman Airport to Marmaris inner city bus terminal, which takes 90 minutes and costs around 15 Euro pp. Click here for the shuttle schedule of HAVAS for Dalaman airport. Long distance direct services include Antalya (7hours), Istanbul (13 hours) and Ankara (10 hours), Bodrum and Fethiye (3 hours), Izmir (5 hours).

Internal Transportation:

Local 'Dolmus' minibuses run to the center of every resort in Turkey. In Marmaris, Siteler dolmus  approximately 0.8 Euro. Icmeler dolmus fee is approximately 1 Euro. The dolmuses in Marmaris are color-coded: Marmaris intra-town minibuses are green; Marmaris - Icmeler minibuses are orange; Marmaris - Beldibi minibuses are bordeaux; Marmaris - Armutalan minibuses are blue; Marmaris - Yalanci bay minibuses have pink colors. Dolmus station is near Ulusal Egemenlik Bulvari. There are bus stops along the route, as of 2006 the minibuses should stop only at these assigned stops. Yet most minibus drivers follow the old system, which is get on anywhere and get off anywhere: all you do is flag down a dolmus as you see it approaching. If it is stuffed, you will have to wait for the next one to come along. The fare for the journey is written on a sign above the driver and you pay as you board the minibus.

To travel further a field, to the bay of Turunc, Hisaronu, Gokova or Datca, you will need to go the Marmaris Bus Station on the outskirts of town or hire a car. For covering greater distances, there is a variety of bus lines and companies to choose from. There are ticket sales offices for these bus lines located at the northern end of the Tansas Shopping Center. The bus station is 2km north of the city

Taxis are recognized by their yellow color. The fare shown on the meter reads according to the distance travelled. Yet it is better to take a dolmus - taxis could be expensive in resorts!
