What Are The Best Things To Do In Bodrum?

Why you should try the Boat Trip in Bodrum?

When I first came to Bodrum in 1998, i was astonished at how many street sellers were promoting the Boat Trip in Bodrum. Surely there aren’t that many boats? Surely there isn’t that much to see? When I’ve been on holiday before, to other countries, the boat trips have been on small boats with bench like seats lining the sides, and for only a few hours. I couldn’t imagine how a full day trip could be comfortable, especially with lunch served too. That was until I saw the Turkish Gulet boat!

The Turkish Gulet Boat

These boats known famously in Turkey are beautifully crafted from the most decorative wood, and are made for comfort. The decks are lined with soft cushioned sunbeds, and the back of the boats, depending on the size, either have a shaded cushioned area, or an undercover seating area. This is where guests on the boat trip in Bodrum can enjoy the delicious lunch that is freshly cooked and served during the tour.

The The boats are equipped with toilets for the guests, and ladders from which you can easily climb into the water to cool off at one of the stops on the tour.

 

What do you do on the Bodrum Boat Trip?

boat trip fun

The first thing to know about Bodrum is how much you are missing by staying on land! The boat Trips typically visit 5 bays around Bodrum peninsula that you would probably never know existed if it wasn’t for the boat trip. The waters are crystal clear and the snorkelling is amazing at some of the spots, especially Aquarium bay. Nearly all of the boats will stop at Aquarium bay, which can make it quite busy at certain times of the day.

Another popular stop on the Bodrum boat tour is Camel Beach. Its unlike the other beaches you’ll find around the resorts in Bodrum, which can quite often be shingle. Camel beach is full of white sand and if you want to you can ride a camel! it’s around 30 Turkish Lira to ride a camel.

The ride is quite short though and the owners of the camels don’t like people taking pictures as there is a photographer there to take and sell photos. If you want a drink at this stop, there are restaurants on the beach but they are not included in the price of the boat trip.

The other bays we stopped at on the Bodrum boat trip were equally as beautiful, and have varied from time to time over the many boat trips I have been on. The standard 5 bay boat trip that seems to be the most popular in Bodrum, has stopped at Lady bay, Bagla bay, Black Island, mud cave, Aspat bay, and Rabbit bay.

although the breeze helps with this when cruising along. The lunch stop is longer at about an hour, at which I always find time to swim and eat. Soft drinks are also included on all of the boat trips I have been on, however alcohol is not included in the price. I have often bought a beer from the boats bar at a decent price, much the same as in local bars on land. I have seen other alcohol is also available to buy on board ,

The stops are around 30 minutes each so there is plenty of time to cool off from the hot sun,

Variations on the Bodrum Boat Trip

Orak Island

Bodrum Orak Island Boat Tour

I didn’t hear about the Orak Island boat tour for years having stayed in Gumbet and Bitez. It’s mainly a tour that is promoted in Bodrum.

But if you are on a 2 week holiday you should definitely try the Orak Island boat tour as well as the standard boat tour. Orak Island is further away from Bodrum than the other bays on the standard boat trip, so there are less stops, normally only 3. Orak Island has only become popular with boat trips in recent years, so although beautiful, it is also very busy. Being busy gives it a fun party atmosphere where all the customers from the boats seem to come together and party in the sea.

Orak Island is about a 2 and a half hour boat ride from Bodrum, but the boat will stop once on the way there and once on the way back so people on board can have a swim.

Bodrum Party Boat Tour

I have never done this Bodrum party boat trip but I love to watch the party on board the huge wooden Pirate ship. The party boats are huge, and take over 100 people, so it really is a day of partying!

If you think that a standard boat trip will be too relaxed for you, you don’t need to miss out on the beauty of the Bodrum bays, you can still see them on this tour. The party boat offers the same stops as the standard tour, but the big difference is that there is a party

on board all day! With a foam machine (covid19 permitting) and a DJ! The music is played and the party is on the top deck of the boat.

Lunch is also included on this trip and the big party boats have a huge under cover seating area on the bottom floor.

It always looks such good fun as it cruises past with everyone dancing on board, but personally I prefer the quieter music, and more relaxing day of the standard boat trip.

Bodrum Private Boat Tour

Out of curiosity one year on an annual holiday to Turkey, myself and a group of friends asked about a private boat tour in Bodrum.

 We didn’t think we’d be able to afford it, but we were pleasantly surprised by the prices and decided to go for it. Well, this was by far the BEST day out we’ve had!

The private boat trip in Bodrum makes you feel special, like you’re the only people in the world. The captain of the boat was so attentive, asking us where we wanted to go, if we wanted to stay longer at the bays we were having fun at. It was more relaxed that the group daily boat trips in Bodrum because, as lovely as they are they follow a route, and it can sometimes be busy at the stops with all the other boats.

The food on the private boat trip was also a bit different to the standard daily boat trip in Bodrum. This perhaps is because there are less people on board, and the chef has more time to make something more complex.

There is also an option to not only hire a wooden gulet boat, but luxury yacht hire in Bodrum is also available! This was a bit out of my budget but it looks very special.

Sunset Cruise boat tour (private hire)

private boat

I have 2 experiences of the sunset boat cruise and both were AMAZING! Who ever thought that I would be hiring a boat privately in Bodrum and watching the sun set over the land. The only word to describe this is magical!

My first experience of the sunset boat trip in Bodrum was again with a group of friends, and we were celebrating a special birthday. We hired the boat, and were allowed to take our own alcohol and snacks onto the boat, so we made it into a cheese and wine night. We bought a cake locally and took that on board too.

The tour was from 6pm until 9pm. We dressed up and it was the most special way to celebrate our friends birthday.

My second time on the sunset boat trip, was for a friends proposal! What a romantic way to propose! I am so lucky to have been able to share this experience with my friend. The romantic music was playing, we had champagne, and the only ones in on the plan were the boyfriend, and the captain of the boat! There were flowers on the table, and balloons hanging from the roof. It was an experience that will never be forgotten.

 

How do I know which boat to choose for my tour?

There are hundreds of boats in the area of Bodrum, and it can sometimes be daunting figuring out which one to choose for your boat trip. There are street sellers and online sellers, all selling at different prices. Easy Book Tours are both an online company, and a street seller, with their office based in Gumbet.

The range of boats differ in size, quality, and service. This website offers all ranges of boat trip in Bodrum that I have mentioned above at a range of prices. I found them to be very open about the differences in service and cost, so you can really feel confident about what you are booking. Don’t hesitate to book a boat trip while you’re in Bodrum! Once you’ve done it, you’ll be hooked!

How long should I holiday in Bodrum?

 

 

How many days should you stay in Bodrum?

Typically, when booking a package holiday, you normally get the options of 7, 10 or 14 days to stay in your chosen holiday destination. But now-days, many people are booking their accommodation and flights separately to make their holiday tailor made to them.

Bodrum offers a huge amount of hotels from backpacker budget hotels, to 5 star ultimate luxury. It will depend of what type of accommodation you choose to stay in as to how many days you will need in Bodrum.

If you have chosen to stay in a budget hotel, or self catering hotel, you might be much more likely to want to explore the area. There is no end to things you can do in Bodrum. Below we will give an example of what you can do in a 1 week, 10 day and 2 week holiday in Bodrum. If you have chosen to stay in an all inclusive hotel, you may be tempted to venture out after reading this post.

1 week holiday in Bodrum

Day 1 – We recommend that on day 1 of your holiday in Bodrum you should do a Turkish Bath. This is because the Turkish Bath treatment exfoliates your skin by removing the dead outside layer. After you have been in the sun for a week you’re sure to have a bit of a sun tan that you want to show off at home. By having a Turkish Bath, you are much less likely to peel, therefore you will preserve your suntan and have healthier looking skin. You’ll find more information on the Bodrum Turkish Bath here.

In the evening of your first day, if you want to go out for dinner, it’s best to familiarise yourself with the local area you are staying in. There are many tourist resorts around the Bodrum peninsula and each one has it’s own charm. We have given a little information of each area in our Bodrum Resorts blog.

Day 2 – After relaxing by the pool or on the beach after your Turkish bath on the first day, you might be ready to start exploring. One of our popular tour with families, couples or groups of friends is Bodrum Water Park. It’s located about 15 minutes from Bodrum centre, and we offer a free shuttle transfer from a designated pick up spot in all areas of the peninsula. It’s a low budget day trip and is a pleasant day out for anyone.

Day 3 – On day 3 of your Bodrum holiday you could spend some time in the city. Bodrum Castle is very important in the history of western Turkey and how Bodrum stands today. The castle isn’t open on a Monday, but every other day it’s open to the public. If history isn’t your thing, you can shop in the quaint cobble stoned shopping area of the city. The streets are filled with Bougainvillea which makes for a perfect photo opportunity.

Day 4 – The Bodrum Jeep Safari is a popular choice for day 4 of your holiday. The tour will fill your day with fun, culture and natural beauty as you ride inland through the countryside. It’s a different pace from the bustling beach resorts.

Day 5 – A day on Gumbet beach will be what you need to relax on day 5 of your holiday in Bodrum. It’s about 5 minutes by taxi from the centre of Bodrum. It is free to use the sun beds and parasols on Gumbet Beach, and there are no shortage of restaurants and bars for you to refresh yourself during the day. To break the day up you can partake in water sports if you are brave enough.

Day 6 – By far, the most popular tour in Bodrum is the Bodrum Boat Trip. From the advertising pictures, it looks like an impossible dream to be on a beautiful gulet boat cruising along the turquoise waters. But we have public boat trips everyday during the summer months. This trip is suitable for families, couples, or friends.

Day 7 – After your wonderful holiday in Bodrum, the last thing you want is to be standing in the sun outside your hotel waiting for your airport transfer to come. We can take to safely and comfortably to the airport in our VIP private airport transfer vehicles. Contact us directly to book.

10 days of your holiday in Bodrum

Day 8 and 9 – If you are lucky enough to spend more than a week in Bodrum, it’s definitely worth taking advantage of the 2 day trip where not only will you see 1 natural wonder of the world, but 2! Bodrum to Ephesus and Pamukkale. Ephesus is an ancient Roman city that has been partially excavated. Already you can see a huge amphitheatre, roman housing estates, and the Virgin Mary’s museum. In Pamukkale you can paddle in the thermal mountain pools, and swim in Cleopatra’s thermal pool.

Day 10 – If this is the last day of your holiday, you’re sure to want to souvenir shop for yourself and loved ones at home. Everyone will love to sample freshly made Turkish delight and if you know a budding chef, they would love to try cooking with the local spices. To decorate your home you will find many ornamental locally made pieces that will remind you of your Bodrum holiday forever.

If you are in Bodrum for 2 weeks

Day 11 – After you have been in Bodrum this long, it’s time to try things that you wouldn’t normally think of doing on holiday, but will be a wonderful experience. Bodrum Horse Riding and Bodrum Scuba Diving are among these options. You can be a complete beginner and still participate in these activities.

Day 12 – If you’re bored of sitting on the beach, you can walk. From the boat harbour on Bitez beach, there is a coastal walk which takes you all the way to Aquarium bay and back again. It’s around 6 kilometres in total. You’ll need to carry plenty of water with you as it’s a wilderness walk, but the best thing is, its free! Don’t forget your sun hat, sun cream and comfortable shoes.

Day 13 – To top off you Bodrum holiday, you can treat you and your partner, friend or family to something special. It’s possible to hire a gulet boat for a private evening sunset cruise. You can see Bodrum castle illuminated and the moon shining on the water. You can choose to dress up, or take an evening swim. This is perfect for a birthday or anniversary celebration, or even a proposal!

Day 14 – Your holiday in Bodrum has come to an end but it’s one that you will never forget. After being here for 2 weeks, you’ll likely want to spend the day saying goodbye to new friends, and revisiting your favourite restaurants and bars in the resort you have stayed in. It’s possible you’re even planning your trip already for later on in the year or next summer. Without a doubt Bodrum would have by this point captured your heart.
