Marmaris is a city in Turkey that thrives off of tourism. Marmaris is also known for having a vibrant night life that caters to different tastes and ages. There are two well-known areas for bars and clubs. One is Bar Street and the other is Long
beach. There are also quality restaurants if you are hungry after a quiet night out.
Long Beach Night Life
When the sun sets and businesses close, Long Beach is the place to go for night life in Marmaris. It is located on the waterfront and is a popular beach during the day. One of the most famous bars in the area is the Salt and Pepa bar. They have a well-stocked bar and drink specials all night. Another bar to see is the Sea Slide. This is the place to go to indulge in in a foam party after 3 a.m. Also, if you are in search of a karaoke bar, Long Beach has four. They are the Turtle Bar, Baran Bar, the Captain Bar and Santana.
Bar Street Night Life
Bar Street may not have as many places to go to as Long Beach, but it has more clubs. If dancing all night to electronic music is your thing, then this is the place to go. The most famous of the clubs is the Greenhouse, which has been supplying the night life with beats in Marmaris since 1986. There are also plenty of hotels in the area to accommodate you if you are visiting from a neighboring city.
