Bozburun is well known
to yachts owners and operators. In respect to tourism it is
one of the most virgin parts of the region. It is highly
recommended for those who want a quite and calm holiday.
There are no large facilities but there are good small
places.
It is on one of the coves of the Sömbeki Gulf. The region,
in comparison to other parts of Marmaris, is extraordinarily
barren. It has a post office, some small hotels, pensions
and good fish restaurants. It is said that the best gulets
are built here. Every year at the end of October there is
the Gulet Festival and Gulet Races.
Nearby to Bozburun on Asar Hill are the remains of the
ancient city of Larymna. It takes about 45 minutes to get to
the top of the hill. There are fragments of the city walls,
pieces and ruins of tombs scattered around. Bozburun looks
beautiful from this hilltop.
How to get there?
You can get to Bozburun from Marmaris by two different ways.
The first option, which is a trip of 45 kilometres, is
through Datça, then taking the turn to Hisarönü and then
keep following the coastal road. Minibuses run regularly
between Marmaris and Bozburun. |
