Bodrum After Dark
The marina after dark
Boats lit up, the castle behind, and a walk that costs nothing.
Free1β2 hoursAfter sunset, any season
Why do it?
Both marinas turn into an evening promenade once the heat drops: gulets and yachts lit along the quay, the castle floodlit above the town harbour, and everyone out walking. YalΔ±kavak is the glossier one, Bodrum town the older.
The Smileys Take
Do this before you decide Bodrum nightlife is not for you β it is the version that costs nothing and includes everybody. Walk the full quay rather than sitting at the first table: the character changes completely from one end to the other.
Good to know
- Waterfront tables carry a waterfront price; the walk itself is free.
