Things To Do in Bodrum
Depending on your travel plans, you might not get a chance to explore Bodrum before or after your trip. Therefore if you have the few hours to spare while waiting for your gulet dreamboat to be ready; you might as well visit a few places worth seeing.

Bodrum Harbor
The Bodrum harbor is a very colorful place – a bustling place.  You can stroll along through the shaded streets lined with all types of shops for souvenirs and necessities. Starting from one end of the waterfront to the other, there are restaurants and cafes.  From the municipal to privately operated establishments, have a seat, relax and take the load off your feet. It’s a pleasant time to simply gaze out to the beautiful harbor and watch the many stunning Turkish wooden gulets; coming in and going out of the harbor.
