Gocek’s  Close Proximity to the Dalaman Airport
The town of Gocek is located off the Dalaman – Fethiye highway. Until the year 2006, prior to the construction of the 980 meter long tunnel, was a very windy road to reach Gocek town. The time it took from the Dalaman airport was about 40 minutes. Which, was still not too bad but the road was not a major highway so therefore drivers had to be cautious due to how narrow the road was. Now with the tunnel, it not only saves time to reach Gocek, but it also is substantially safer. Although there is a toll fee required to drive through this tunnel.

The Dalaman International Airport serves many nearby cities and towns as well as villages within the Mugla province. These include the cities of Fethiye, Marmaris and sometimes Bodrum. Travelers have known to go as far as to Antalya from the Dalaman airport. However among all these places, the nearest town or city is Gocek. It’s a mere 15 minute drive from the airport to the town itself which centres around the port.

Gocek resides in the Mediterranean sea. It is in close proximity to many other bays and harbor nearby. The most popular of itineraries chosen from yacht charters beginning from Gocek are routes to the 12 Islands, Marmaris, Fethiye, and Kekova in the Antalya province.  If guests have allocated a two week yacht charter holiday in Turkey, rather than the standard one week holiday, itineraries can extend as far as Bodrum with the Gocek – Marmaris – Bodrum route to the west.  If the itinerary is set to the Eastern Mediterranean, then the route; Gocek – Kekova – Antalya would generally be the selection for a yacht holiday itinerary.
