The tiny port of Marmaris is tucked into the deep recesses of a pretty bay, framed by pine-clad mountains. Many visitors use Marmaris as a starting point for trips to Caunos, an important ancient city famed for its rock tombs. In town, attractions include the statue of Kemal Atatürk, the founder of the Turkish Republic. Also interesting to see is the Menzilhane, an Ottoman version of a pony express station. It dates back to the days of Sultan Süleyman the Magnificent, who ordered the station built in 1545. Beyond that, one can simply spend a lazy day in the sun or join locals and fellow visitors in a waterfront taverna. Pier InformationThe ship is scheduled to dock at the Port of Marmaris.
