Datça
A narrow peninsula town reaching into the Aegean, known for harbor restaurants, almonds, and honey. Its clean air makes it one of Turkey's most livable small towns.
Datça lies on a narrow peninsula about 70 km west of Marmaris, with the Aegean on one side and the Mediterranean on the other. It is famous for its clean air, almonds, thyme honey, and olive oil. The town center circles a small harbor, and the waterfront promenade is lined with seafood restaurants and cafés. Nearby are Kadıçık Beach and several windmills. The town is the base for visits to the ancient city of Knidos, the old stone village of Datça, and Palamutbükü Bay. From Marmaris, it takes about 1.5 hours to drive along the winding peninsula road. Buses also run, and in summer ferries connect to Bodrum.
