Witness the world's oxygen tank at Aktur! Spotted with pine trees, it is a slice of paradise. Aktur consists of two units, namely Datca and Kurucabuk, located at a distance of 4 km from each other. The Hisaronu bay is located very close to the narrowest strip of the Datca peninsula and separates the Gulf of Gokova from the Gulf of Hisaronu. 

Just across the bay from Selimiye, Bencik offers a quiet and protected anchorage in amongst a pine forest. Bencik Bay has a very narrow entrance but a unique view once you get inside. Bencik is located at the narrowest part of the peninsula that divides Hisaronu Gulf from the Gokova, but it is located on Hisaronu's side.

Bozburun - Dirsekbuku

Bozburun is renowned for the thriving sponge business and gulet yacht construction industry. Some of the best wood and craftsmen for building strong and beautiful gullet boats are to be found in this region, which is why leading names in the business employ Bozburun’s boat makers. 

Dirsekbuku is located between the Gulf of the Aegean Sea and the Gulf of Hisaronu. Many tourists travel from Bodrum to Marmaris and stop here for rest, which is why this region has several sheltered bays. 

Arap Island - Kadirga Bay - Marmaris

Kadirga Bay has been honoured with the blue flag for its marvellous sea. Kadirga Bay has already been a tourist place for many years. Marmaris is a port city and a tourist resort on the Mediterranean coast, located in southwest Turkey, in Mugla Province. Marmaris is a heavenly corner where you can see all grades and harmonies of green and blue during the twelve months of the year. Marmaris is one of the most elegant yachting resorts in Turkey. A point to meet the most beautiful boats. Ultramarine blue sea, mountains and pinewoods sketch the landscape. Many choices of shops, cafes, and restaurants are to be found along the town's narrow streets.

Going back to Marmaris in the morning for disembarkation.

Palamutbuku is reputed to have the best beaches in the Datca peninsula. The beaches are small but very beautiful. Surrounded by mountains and spotted with gardens, these beaches are known for their tranquillity and fresh sea air, presenting the perfect backdrop for a rejuvenating getaway. 

Palamutbuku is located at the end of the peninsula and is also famed for the remains of the historic city of Knidos. The waters here are crystal clear, so much so that it is believed that if you take a needle at the very bottom of the sea, you can still see it!

Palamutbuku is indeed a little paradise.

Bozukkale - Serce Bay

Bozukkale (Loryma) is an ancient city that dates back to 10 BC. The castle walls have nine towers extending in a mutually rectangular pattern. The castle and towers are very well preserved and appear in a solid state. Bozukkale served as a bay cruise stretch for British naval ships and is now considered a shipyard on the shore.

Serce is where the Blue Cruise boat moor. The place offers a brilliant image of the bottom of the harbour and is well protected from the harshest weather conditions. Underwater surveys and excavations have led to many discoveries, including centuries-old glassware, now kept in the Bodrum Underwater Museum.
