Things to Do  

Boat Trip

Boat Trip, Icmeler

 12 Reviews  There are two options for sailing in the wonderful little craft that sail from Ismeler. You can go to either Marmaris for 10 L or Turunc for 15 L return. Either trip is worthwhile, especially Turunc where you hug the high cliffs along the coast to Turunc. (Go any day of the week to Turunc - the... 

Beach

Beach, Icmeler

 6 Reviews  We did not actually go on the beach through our two week stay apart from walking along it at night when it was quiet. As the photo shows it is very crowded and the sun beds and canopies are very close together - the most densely used beach I have ever see. In central Icmeler you have to pay to use... 

Marmaris

Marmaris, Icmeler

 4 Reviews  When having a holiday in Marmaris, a good idea for having a break for the beach life is to go to see the cosy small and sweet town of Icmeler. It is also a holiday resort, but much smaller and with less services and e.g. restaurants/clubs and bars than Marmaris. This makes Icmeler an ideal place to... 

Market

Market, Icmeler

 2 Reviews  rWednesdays in Icmeler they have their own market, which was bigger that we thought it would be. Same sort of goods as in the shops but all in one place for you to barter and compare.

Waterfall Restaurant

Waterfall Restaurant, Icmeler

 2 Reviews  The ambience is superior to most of Icmeler. All the tables are outside, and some right by an attractive - if artificial - eponymous waterfall. Prices are above average. So is the food quality. The Indian food is excellent here, and it is no coincidence that the chef is Indian.

Tourist Traps  

Dalaman Airport

Dalaman Airport, Icmeler

 miniman2804 Says:  Now I know that all airports are expensive, but the bar/restaurants at Dalaman are criminally so. TL8 for a soft drink - TL11 for a beer, TL25 for a Big Mac (that's over 10GBP!!). Take all your snacking requisites with you when you go home.New for 2011. Onur air have done a...

Currency 2 - note to Scots travellers

Currency 2 - note to Scots travellers, Icmeler

 miniman2804 Says:   Now - I have no idea why - but it is true that Scottish banknotes are 10% (sic) less valuable to the Turks than English ones, as reflected in the exchange rates offered in the town of Icmeler.Is Alex Salmond planning a devaluation after independence? I think we should be...
