  Muğla is the city on south-west of Turkey between the cities Antalya and Izmir. It has many different places to visit if you are looking for where the sun is shining above green and blue with very nice local foods. But all these places are far from each other just because of the geographical shapes and that is why you will need more time than you think to see all of these places. There is even safari options to make your trip faster and unforgettable or cruise lines to make your trip peerless.  

  1. Marmaris

  2. Fethiye

  3. Dalaman

  4. Datça

  5. Bodrum

  
  Firstly, i am going to start with Marmaris with its own beaches and its unique nightlife. It is a ''never sleep'' city. It is mostly preferred for a summer holiday by English, German, Russian and Dutch tourists. There is a big cruise line including Greek islands and Marmaris is one of the most green district in Muğla.
 

   Secondly, with its ''Ölü Deniz'' which means ''death sea'' Fethiye is one of the most popular area in Muğla. You can do paragliding up above that beautiful view. You can join to a local night to learn how to dance ''belly'' or how Turkish people drink their special ''Rakı''. Fethiye is usually preferred by English and German people. 



  There is Dalaman on the third place for the list for ''Trip to Muğla''. With its 12 islands, Dalaman is really lovely and it is very close to Fethiye. That is why localization is mostly in Fethiye and tourists are coming to Dalaman daily. There is also chartering organizations in Dalaman and they have even 1 week tours.

  Fourthly Datça, with its local sea foods and local wines. Special thing for Datça is a big foreland, one side of that foreland is Mediterranean Sea and the other side of it is Aegean Sea. There is a very nice panoramic view there. Datça is usually visited by Russian and Arabic tourists.

  Lastly but not leastly Bodrum has the biggest tourism area in Muğla. It is generally preferred by Turkish and Arabic tourists. Bodrum has very big and very popular nightlife and there is only one construction type in Bodrum. That is why all the houses are same and all of them are white. Biggest hotels in Muğla are placed in Bodrum.
