Since the beaches aren’t that great, the best way to enjoy the pristine waters around the Bodrum peninsula is to take a day cruise. You’ll be able to visit a few different coves inaccessible by land and jump off the boat into the water.

The tiny fishing village of Gümüşlük has retained its charm by limiting development. My Turkish friends told me to visit in the afternoon to eat very reasonably priced fish at one of the restaurants up against the harbor. I took my family there when they came to visit one day during their cruise ship stop in Bodrum.
