Marmaris, which was built upon one of the antique Karian cities called Phyckos, has been under the rule of many different civilisations. The most valuable work of art that you can see today is Marmaris Castle dating from 1577. There is also a mosque and an 8-room caravansary covered with arches from the Ottoman Period.

Kumlubük - meaning Sandycove - lies within sight of the harbour of Marmaris but is cut off from it by a forbidding set of limestone mountains. Development is still embryonic. The 2-mile-long beach of black sand remains uncrowded. Behind it, a handful of farmhouses and a few shabby hotels stick out of the citrus gardens. The ruins of ancient Amos lie undisturbed in the bush on top of a cliff on the edge of the village. Tea is served at 5pm somewhere in the vicinity of Cennet Island. Afterwards we sail to Marmaris port. Overnight stay at Marmaris Harbour. Guests wishing to see more of Marmaris are recommended to go to the city centre and experience the lively nightlife.
