Turgut Waterfall, located in the picturesque surroundings of Marmaris, is a cascade of stone ledges from which water noisily falls from a height of ten meters. On sunny days, millions of sparkling splashes fill the air, creating a mesmerizing picture. Forest shade, coolness and the aroma of pine needles complement the atmosphere of privacy and natural harmony. At the bottom, the waterfall forms a small pool with cool water, where you can refresh yourself on a hot day. The water from the lake smoothly flows into a stream, which eventually flows into the sea. Here you can not only swim, but also fish, and try fresh gifts of nature in cozy cafes along the way to the waterfall.
On the way to the waterfall, you should definitely stop by the village of Turgut. This place is famous for its natural products: fragrant honey, olive oil, homemade soap and fresh fruits. Cozy traditional houses of local residents give the village a special flavor. Here you will always be greeted with hospitality, offered to try local treats and even given a short tour of the households.
There are different ways to get to the Turgut waterfall. You can rent a car, take a bus or go as part of a tour group. From the center of Marmaris, minibuses depart from the stop near the Ataturk monument. The main thing is to make sure that the bus has the sign "Turgut" and tell the driver that you need to get to "şilale" - this is the Turkish name for the waterfall.
The most exciting and memorable way to visit the waterfall is jeep safari in Marmaris. As part of the rich program, you will ride through the picturesque surroundings and the coast of the Aegean Sea, walk along the "Maiden Spit", have lunch in a forest restaurant, visit a waterfall and the village of Turgut. On a hot day, fun water battles with water pistols are organized for those who wish right during the jeep ride. This is a great opportunity to have fun, recharge your batteries and get a lot of positive emotions!
