Marmaris turkey vacation, blue
cruise in turkey - private Gulet charter.
Turunc
It is believed that the first
settlement of this area of Turunc, was around the same time that Marmaris
was first settled.
Turunc has been a continuous settlement from Hellene to Byzantine times.
The village, that was settled by nomad. These nomad made there living
from flocks, agriculture, thyme, bay leaf trees, sage and carobs, along
side ishing. Now days, how ever,
there's a little left from the old way of life. Turunc had evolved into a
vacation and holiday resort. Though it's not as big as it's neighbors, Marmaris or
Itcmeler, Trunc is a nice, clean and quiet. There are 2 ways to get
there. One is by boat from Marmaris or Itcmeler. The second one, is by car
or Dolmush,
on a very
beautiful and scenic rout.
Upon completing the land
rout to Turunc, you see a breath taking view. Underneath you, you’ll see
Turunc and it beautiful bay, spread accrues the horizon. If you come by a
boat, it seams like it’s hidden behind the hills. It takes about 25
minutes to Icmeler and about extra 15 minutes or so, to Marmaris. The
climate in
Turunc
enables you to swim 7 months a year (April-October). If you’re up to it,
you can go on tours like trekking, jogging, and scuba. By large, the temp’ in Turunc is not less than 15 - 20 C in daytime. From Turunc to the airport
in Dalaman, it’s about 120km and to the one in Izmir, it’s about 280km.
Going out
Since Turunc has just
recently started evolving into a tourist site, it doesn't have a very big
entertainment area. It has though,
facilities ranging
from pensions to luxury hotels and a smaller shopping center then
Marmaris.
How ever, this doesn't mean you can't go out at night for a drink or a
restaurant. You can also take one of the boat shuttles that goes back and
forth, between Marmaris/ Icmeler and Turunc.
A very good way to get to
know Turunc and its surroundings is to take a Blue
Voyage Gulet charter. The town Kumlubuk, with it's beautiful bay and
ruins.

that is in a drive away distance from Marmaris. To get there, you take

believed to be over 2000 years. The locales say that if you circle the
tree twice counter clock wise, you'll get younger by few years. Few meter

bridge, you'll come to a set of water falls with few pools of water. Have
fun. On the way back, you might want to stop at one of the restaurant for
a fish meal. If you go into Ismail's place, not far from the road you
