Marmaris a spectacular bay surrounded by pine-clad mountains and probably the most popular beach destination in Turkey.

Marmaris is known as the city by the sea to many people who visit it, and there is a good reason for it. This city, which is close to the island of Rhodes, sits on the southwest corner of Turkey, with its own bay and a shoreline that also looks out over the Mediterranean Sea.

Due to the bay, and its location on the sea, the place has proved to be incredibly popular with northern Europeans who are looking for a place to take their boats on a sailing or yachting holiday.

The city is world renown for its sailing and yachting, and even the International Yachting Club of Marmaris is well known for its amazing races in October, which feature 100 boats and 1,000 racers.

If you are a person who loves to sail, then you need to pull up anchor and come to Marmaris, where you will be able to sail the sea that has been sailed by 8,000 years of sailors, from the Greeks to the Romans to the Ottomans to our present day yachters.
